Sorry it has taken me so long to let waiting/pending fellow VJ'ers know about my process. Our interview was 08/26/2013 @ 7:45am. The plan was to leave our home in Bani @ 5:00, however i am never puntual lol. We arrived for the interview at 6:30am and the lines were so confusing. We were let in @ 7am and given #299. we sat down and waited for his fingerprints, after that around 8am we were called to window 22 and the interrogating began.(tun tun tun)lol The officer was a lady , fairly nice. She asked us our names, when we were married and who all attended. She asked to see pictures of the ceremony and asked for 2 random pictures. She then told me to wait in the lobby and interviewed my husband(the whole time my stomach was in knots, my husband tends to ramble when nervous) She asked him...... -My parents names -How many siblings i have -How many children i have, their names and DOB. -When and where we were last intimate -Where I work and what position. The officer calls me back to the window and sends my husband out, she then asks me all the same questions to verify. She then called my husband back and after rumbling and sorting papers that seem to take forever she closed our file and I saw the lucky green ticket!!!!! I was so excited to see the ticket I didn't even here when she said visa APPROVADA!!!! my husband kissed me and I was stuck lol. We proceeded to pay our Domex and left as fast as we could lol. We were out by 10:am. Domex had my husbands visa ready in 3 days! which I thought was fast being that RD takes their sweet time lol(no offense) As soon as we had the visa on hand we bought my hubby's ticket and he entered the US 09/04/2013. That part was also smooth. I have no complaints. We are finally excited and ready to continue our life together forever :) Processing Estimates/Stats : Your I-130 was approved in 118 days from your 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.
