Embassy Review : |
I was asked
- how did we meet
- when did we meet in person for the first time
- when did we decide to get married
- why are you moving to the USA
- tell me about him
They really don't care about anything not on the checklist, so keep it simple. |

Embassy Review : |
Based on the other reviews I was expecting a cake walk. Nope.
I am the 'immigrant'.
Appt was at 1:30pm, we got there at 1:15pm and were called at 1:40pm. Escorted upstairs and to his office by the inteviewing officer. On the way up in the elevator he asked if I had my Biometrics appt, I said yes, on June 13, 2006. Were asked to sit down with me on the right side. IO sorted through some papers, asked us to stand and swear under oath. Then came the questions... We were asked:
- our ages (I'm 8 years older)
- our previous marriages, any children. The IO asked my husband quite a few questions about his previous marriage, when married, for how long, why it ended
- about our engagement
- about our wedding
- about our courtship and visits before I entered on K1
- my husband about his education, job history and plans for the future
- me about my education and what line of work I plan on looking for
- me about my family
- proof of co-habition
- how many times I've been to the USA
and a few of the "are you a terrorist/prostitute/criminal questions
He told us we were approved, pending my FBI clearance and we were given a wait time of 3-4 months for the clearance.
We were back in the parking lot by 2:10pm

*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.
