Our interview was very relaxing. We were not nervous, too, because our documents are complete and our relationship is genuine. Just some few questions about how we met, then....approved. Thanks, God. |

Embassy Review : |
Me and my daughter has a very pleasant interview with the officer. Got only few questions about how we meet with my fiance. Since our love is so genuine and we had lots of proving evidences, so it was easy for me as well even for my daughter. We got an approval just right after the interview of the second interviewer, an american. He keep his smile and had a very pleasant manner. The first chinese lady who interview us and gather all of our documents was really tough on her questioning in Cantonese, but we managed to answer them correctly according to the truth of our relationship. She showed us at the end a very satisfied smile. Two thumbs up for these officers....not because they approved my visa but because they did a good work and applied the laid down procesdures during the interview; the power to see the genuinity on the case.
For me, God is good. He is really great to those who deserves it. Yeah!javascript:emoticon('')javascript:emoticon('') |

*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.
