| Embassy Review : |
I would like to start off by saying my fiancee stressed really bad about the interview process. She is very detailed and wanted everything to be perfect. She stressed almost to the point that I couldn't talk to her sometime. She often tells me that I am too easy going. lol
Well her appoint interview time was set for 1400 on 21 May. She arrived at 12 to make the line and be in by 1400. That was a mistake, they break or do something during lunch hour and open the doors at 1400. Needless to say she had to find something to do for 2 hours. She got in and handed someone her paperwork the a glass window and she sat in the waiting room. Then she started to worry because many people that came in after her was getting called before her. She also thought the interview would be one on one in a private room. (haha) They finally called her to the window and they asked her only two questions, one was about the ages of my kids, and the other when will get married. Then the lady congratulated her and said you are approved. They retained her passport and docs. Fiancee asked the attendant if she needed any of the extra things like, photos, chat logs, or anything of that nature. Attendant said no you are approved. javascript:emoticon(' ')
I love her to death, she will learn to have faith in the system one day. javascript:emoticon(' ') Also please don't get me wrong, always better to have more than what is needed.
We initially wanted to have the interview in Okinawa because I am in the military and we expected them to have more experience than Tokyo (Fiancees thinking) But they were very rude to her when she called so she quickly changed everything back to Tokyo. |

*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.
