| Embassy Review : |
Got an appointment for 1.00 pm, but as it turns out, all appointments are scheduled for 1.00 pm; by the time we got there, there was already a queue of people waiting for approval of mostly tourist visas.
After an initial document review (documents previously provided as well as the documents listed on the interview letter) we had to wait about 20 minutes for the actual interview, which lasted all of 5 minutes. They asked when we had met and if we had met our respective families (we had), and after answering those questions, I was told "all looks good, welcome to America". We had to wait about 5 more minutes to speak to another employee who asked us for a phone number where they could reach us to let us know the visa and my passport were ready for pickup.
All in all a very pleasant experience, minus the extremely grumpy security guard. She must have had a bad day, but nonetheless we left happy. |

*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.
