Consulate Review: Algiers, Algeria Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : January 20, 2014 Embassy Review : We actually had to go through two interviews Our original interview was scheduled for November 21, 2013. We had made sure to check with the consulate on email beforehand about the DS-160 form to check if he needed to fill it out, and they told me "no, he needs to bring "x" form with him." Kamel did as instructed, and upon going for this interview, was turned away by an Algerian receptionist (who apparently wasn't up to date on the requirements). When I heard this, I was enraged, and after an email to the consulate (which took 2 weeks to answer), we were giving a second interview date for December 29, 2013. This was after Kamel had been told he needed to schedule his own interview, and there were only FEBRUARY DATES available. So we were happy to have a solution, despite losing a month of our time. Anyway, he took the evidence of my correspondence with the consulate to make sure things were in order for his interview. He said at the interview, the VA only asked him 3-4 questions, said everything was in order besides a small problem of needing a co-sponsor (because my w-2 was from last year and didn't reflect my new and MUCH more lucrative job), but they kept his passport and just gave us information to email him the forms. Kamel received an email the next week to tell him that his visa was ready to be picked up javascript:emoticon('') Rating : Moderate

*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.
