Consulate Review: Bangladesh Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa Event Description Review Date : November 28, 2012 Embassy Review : At the interview day, my husband (the petitioner) was with me. It gives relaxation as he has to face the questions. I am not going through the detail of entry to the US embassy, things are similar like others. The consular asked me 'who is he?' indicating my husband and then all the questions were for him. She asked him how do you get your green card? where do you live what do you do for living Is it your first marriage? she was taking notes all the time. Then she asked me which day you got married? After that she browse her PC for some time,then give me a white slip and told me to receive visa at the next day. It was really simple. I had bundle of proof of relationship-----pictures, facebook, skype, money receipt etc etc. The consular did not bother to see any of those. There was 0% utilization of the documents I carried. Anyway, it is always better to be over prepared than under prepared. Good Luck for them who is going to face interview soon. Rating : Very Good

*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
