Embassy Review : |
I attended my wife's interview which was at 12:30pm. We arrived 30 minutes early and had to wait outside until 12:30pm before we were allowed in. I asked the guard if I could join my wife, and he started to say no, but I showed him an email print-out from the Consulate that said I could go in, and after that he had no problem letting me in. We went right in, and in the lobby there was only one other person with us. He got his interview before us, and he just forgot one document, and had to bring it back before they could approve. After him, they called my wife's name after waiting about 1 hour. She went inside the room and asked if I could come in too, and the CO said "sure". He was very friendly, and just asked basic questions. The funny thing was, we already saw the approval stamp and white slip on his table before the interview, so I wasn't very worried. After it was over, he said "Ok, you are approved. Pick up your visa in 3 days." It was very fast and easy, no problems at all. 5/5. |

*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.
