Consulate Review: Tirana, Albania
Review Topic: K3 Visa
Event Description
Review Date : July 20, 2015
Embassy Review : I went to Albania to be with my spouse while he had the interview and to make sure that everything went smoothly. I am glad I went there because after the interview they said they needed additional documents, and the visa had not been approved yet. They needed additional information like the income of my mother who we would be staying with, and also the police clearance from the previous country that he lived in. During the processing time (8 months), I emailed the police department 3 different times making sure there was documented clearance on his name and they said yes, yet there was still no proof at the consulate. I had to then gather my mothers income (from taxes), and show proof of the 3 emails I sent. We sent it all back in the mail, with his empty passport, and it got approved about 2 weeks later. Thank the Lord, because we had our tickets to come home a week after his visa came back to us in the mail attached to passport. Dont let this happen to you and make sure you have all the right documents in place before the interview!

*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
