Interview was a breeze. Officer changed my application from marriage to 5 years because it was easier for me (Less burden of proof). Although I had all the evidence, she said she recommended it. I would not start off applying for the 5 years, because another officer could have questioned it. I prefer them to change it during the interview! Now to wait for the approval letter and oath ceremony date! |

| Embassy Review : |
It was just like the other posts about inverviews Bloomington, MN, easy! the lady asked to to swear to tell the truth, and then asked us for our IDs and my passport, asked me my full name, address, DOB, almost all the application, then the questions about having been involved in bad things,  haha, hte asked me if I was working and I told her no because I had gotten the EAD like 2 weeks before the church wedding and it was crazy, here Erin said, "we have pictures if you want to see them" she said yes!, and we gave her both big albums with the proofs, and she looked at all of them! she said that was the fun part! then she said "everything looks all right, I am going to go ahead and approve you right away, and you will get your GC in the mail in about 2 to 3 weeks. Do you have any questions?" I asked her about the stamp and she said no, that I was going to get the GC in the mail soon; also asked her if she wanted the AP and EAD and told me "hold on to them, and destroy them when you get the gc" nos felicito, y nos despedimos! that's all! she did no ask for anything we had in the big binder, but well, you have to bring it, because if you don't, they will ask you for your soul! haha! |

Timeline Comments: None yet, be the first!
*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
