Embassy Review : |
We arrived a few minutes after 2PM for our 2:30PM appointment. Unfortunately, we were not seen until after 3PM. The adjudication officer was not overly friendly, but not intimidating. She lead us to her office and had us take an oath. During the interview, she asked how we met and confirmed information from the I-485 application we submitted for the Adjustment of Status. Finally, she asked us what evidence we had to solidify our relationship together. The interview process took us no more than 20-30 minutes. Finally, I suggest giving photocopies of your evidence to the officer along with the original evidence so he/she doesn't have to spend time photocopying your documents. This will save you a minimum of 5-10 depending on the amount of evidence you have. |

*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.
