| Embassy Review : |
Well here it goes! We made it to the Embassy bright and early, about 6:30am. We received the number 4 a little after 8am. Once inside we had to wait for our number to be called. As soon as that happened the lady taking in our documents organizes our documents and enters data on the computer. She took in the payment receipt for the visa fee ($240), followed by the beneficiary´s birth certificate, police reports, passport, D156, D157 and the Supplement form. I believe that´s all. She didn´t bother to look at the ongoing relationship evidence nor the Affidavit of Support (tax transcripts, employment letter, stubs), I asked her and she said to wait for the Consul to interview my fiance. It took about 30 minutes for the Consul to call my fiance. He asked him how we met, when we met, what I did for a living, where was he going to live at and if my parents were okay with the arrangement, also when we were going to get married. He then took a quick view at our letters we sent each other, and took all the Affidavit of Support documents. I stayed behind (seated) for the drama effect... but as soon as I thought it was feeling fishy, I walked up next to him... :D The interviewer asked who I was, I let him know and he welcomed me. He didn´t ask me anything else and were approved after a minute. It was quite an exhilarating moment, couldnt wait for us to get out of the Embassy... lol I met a fellow VJ member and said hello!! It was a smooth process and everything falls into place. The best advice is just to have everything in order, be confident and you will do just fine.  |

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
