POE Review: Event Description Entry Date : 2013-05-17 Embassy Review : Not too bad of a wait, through everything in less than an hour. Bags were supposedly checked all the way trough, double checked for them at JFK, but they were not there. We're still waiting for them to be delivered. The officers were quite friendly just asked what day we were getting married and reminded fiance that it was a one entry visa. Fiancé went through it all on his own. All in all much less stressful than expected, especially after 22 hours of travel. Harassment Level : Low

*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
