He told us to go to window 1 or 2 to do finger scanning. After that waited for more or less 3 hours for them to call our number for the interview. CO was a Caucasian lady, my first impression(she was scary, looked really strict) She was torturing my husband even though I was the beneficiary. lol To my hubby: - How did you guys meet? - What's the name of my parents? - How many times did you visit her? - How did I learn English? - How long we have been together? - Where did you guys got married? - How many kids are you planning to have? To me: - Did you have problems with the police? - Did you apply for any non-immigrant visa? - we did not hear her properly because the speakers were not functioning right, but I heard her say approved (Your already approved) And then she hand us out a green paper with our case number written on it and she said you can go pay domex. Have a great day! Processing Estimates/Stats : Your I-130 was approved in 237 days from your NOA1 date. Your interview took 551 days from your I-130 NOA1 date.

*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.
