| Embassy Review : |
Overall took about 3-4 hours. Arrived around 7:00 AM for the 7:30AM appointment, which from other reviews you'll realize this has absolutely no meaning. The interviews seem completely random. Anywho, about 5 minutes outside, 10 mins in the 'holding tank?', probably 30-40 minutes to get the fingerprints done. Lucky for me I was able to go sit down, my wife had to do the tetris shuffle as they pack everyone into the queue. Really though, its a much needed lesson in waiting your turn that a lot of Vietnamese need. Another 40ish minutes watching random numbers called to submit paperwork. And then a good 2 hours sitting around watching interviews take place while waiting.
I went up with my wife and was not sent away for the entire interview. The entirety of it lasting all of 3-4 minutes. We had a woman interviewer and she was very friendly and seemed to make an effort to make my wife comfortable. She asked the basics. How we met, what's my job, where do I live, how many people in our wedding, who from my family participated. She asked to see a few photos, and chuckled at some of the goofier ones I personally wanted to submit. I think my wife was a little disappointed that all the work she put in gathering evidence didn't see the light of day. |

*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.
