Original interview was August 22nd, 2013, never received packet or appointment letter. Finally got an interview date for December 11th, 2013. The packet for the paperwork will be given at the embassy on December 9th, 2013. Also, had to write an extension for the petition due to it expiring on October 16th, 2013. |

| Comments : |
I was expecting her to say Houston was very bad, like most of the reviews. However, the individual just asked her a few basic questions and then asked her if I was going to quit the army for her. Other than that, it was not too bad. |

| Embassy Review : |
My fiance said that the embassy treated her very well. She was called to the window and gave a lady her papers, it took her about 10-15 minutes as the lady asked her questions. She then had to wait about an hour before her name was called again for her actual interview. The individual that interviewed her looked at some of the facebook messages between her and I, looked at the photos and then asked her a few questions about our relationship. She said she was in the interview for exactly 15 minutes. They then told her everything looked good and they would contact her by email in a few days with an answer. I hope she gets approved.The only thing I did not like about the embassy is that her paperwork they sent got "lost" in the mail. After that, they would not send new papers or sent them digitally through email. Then, we had to get an extension to find time for her to fly up to Santiago. However, they eventually worked with us and gave her a new interview date so she could come get her paperwork at the same time. But, thankfully everything is finally finished with that part. |

*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.
