| Embassy Review : |
The whole interview process at the Reykjavík Embassy was really straightforward... However, we arrived early and were not allowed to go inside until we were called in. Though we had an appointment at 10, we still had to wait an hour because they let people through the doors in the order in which they arrived. If you're going to the Embassy in the winter, wear appropriate clothing. I went for style over warmth and seriously couldn't feel my toes after 10 minutes of standing outside. Eventually, my husband and myself went in, and gave them our paperwork. We waited around some more and then the consular officer called his name up to the window. We thought he would be interviewed in a private room, but she interviewed him right there on the spot after fingerprinting him and having him sign some paper. She only asked him about three questions which were
a)When did you meet your wife?
b) Have you been to the US before?
c) When were you married?
She took his passport and asked for a phone number to contact him at when his visa was ready! Overall, the whole waiting time was about two hours, but that was mostly because of other people visiting the Embassy who were not well-prepared. Our stuff was done after about two minutes, easy peasy! |

*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.
