Consulate Review: Naples, Italy
Review Topic: K1 Visa
Event Description
Review Date : September 12, 2012
Embassy Review : The interview takes place in the morning. We arrived 30 minutes early and were 20th in line!

We spent about 4 hours there. All our paperwork was in order so we were instructed, as was everyone else, to go to the local Mailboxes Etc. at 5pm to pick up the passport (if it is finished). All of the K1 visas were late so we had to pay 25 euros to have it shipped to our place in Milan. They give you the option of returning the next day (and every day after that..) at 5pm but there is no guarantee when it will be ready.

The visa was delivered one week (5 business days) later.

Some advice: Arrive one full hour earlier than they tell you. It will save you 2+ hours of waiting in the end. And, don't panic (like we did!) if your K1 visa is not ready for you the same day.

We were very disheartened when we found out the visa had not been processed (especially because all the other people there had been approved!). It was some comfort to discover that it was all of the K1 visas that were late, but we did not have the satisfaction of a triumphant return with the visa in hand. But we finally have it now so in the end all the trouble has paid off!
Rating : Poor

*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.

** Not all cases are transfered
