Embassy Review : |
Finally got my interview date (11th of June) and couldn't wait to be done with it. Got there an hour early so i was the first in line javascript:emoticon('')
Didn't have anything in my pockets, made sure of that after all the warnings they gave us.
Handed in all my paperwork at the first window (window 5). Turned out my marriage certificate didn't have the right seal on it, so I'll have to bring them a new one later (that was the first setback).
Then I was called to the next window (window 6) for the interview. It was a very pleasant man, he even made small talk ( I thought they didn't do that at the embassy). After the interview he said: 'it's all good, but....there is two things. We need your original marriage license and we can find your fingerprints in the computer. ( they take your fingerprints at the first window and then they verify them at the second one). Between window 5 and 6 I seemed to have lost my fingerprints. I assured him I still had the original ones right there on my fingers, but I guess in this case that wasn't good enough and they wanted the copy from their computer and not the original. They sure are inconsistent. javascript:emoticon('')
SO I was sent back home and told to make a new appointment when I had the right marriage license. I had it sent right away from the States, but this also was a certified copy and not an original. They said they never gave out originals. So now I'm still trying to figure out if this is good enough or not...but there seems to be no hurry, because they still can't find my fingerprints...

Timeline Comments: 4I believe we are on the same boat. My interview was March 8th, I passed the interview and my application was recommended for approval, but not approved yet. Uscis online account says Oath ceremony will be scheduled.
Did you get your Oath ceremony scheduled or application approval ?

I hope you get yours approved soon!
Good luck!
Thank you for the update. I just got my Oath scheduled today to attend on mid April.
Enjoy being free.
*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.
