Embassy Review : |
We showed up 1 hour early to the consulate, not knowing what to expect. This was a bad idea, as we had to wait outside in a police barrack (as you are not allowed to stand and wait outside the doors). All of the consulate officers were very kind and cordial, and were helpful with any questions we had. After getting through security, we were led to a waiting room where the interview windows were. There were only about 6 other applicants for this interview time, so it eased the nerves and stress. Wisna was the only male applicant. We payed our fee, submitted our paperwork and waited to be called to the window. After about 20 minutes, he was called to be sworn in and interviewed. He was asked simple questions (in Indonesian!) about where he met me, how long he has known me, and where he plans on residing in the United States. The officer then told him that he needed to have an English Translation of his birth certificate, and gave a date for him to bring it back and pick up his visa. This seemed like great news because he didn't give any indication that the visa was being denied. We had the birth certificate translated, and brought it back to the Consulate a few days later where they issued the date when we could pick up his passport with his visa in it! We were so excited, and although it delayed the process not having his BC translated, it was overall a smooth and quick process (compared to waiting months for NOA approvals!) |

*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.
