wow that was fast! Writing "expedite" on the envelope and including a request that my wife and son wish to travel this summer really helped! |

Consulate Review: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

| Embassy Review : |
The staff at the consulate was more than pleasant and helpful. The interview date was smooth as glass. We got there at 0640 the day of the interview. We were taken in at 0720 and our interview started at 0800. We were the first in line. We made a dry run the day before the interview and found out we should be there at 0700 and not 0800 as the forms in packet#4 had stated. They called Patricia in and spoke to her for about 15 min. Then they called for Gustavo, her son, spoke to him for a few minutes and they both came out and were approved. The entire process took about 45min. They didn't ask to see me. Considering all the things you expect to endure when dealing with the government, this process was a breeze! |

*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.
