Event Description
Review Date : December 30, 2014
Embassy Review : My fiancé and I had an 8am appointment and arrived at the embassy at 7:30am. There were already about 15 people queuing so we joined the line, Where a worker told us to ensure we had our interview letter and passports to hand. We came to a little desk where they check your documents, Ensure the correct name is on their list and assign you with a number, Which was stuck onto the letter.
We then entered a little security room, Where we were asked to place all belongings into a tray to be scanned, Just like at an airport. Then we actually enter the Embassy! We came to a reception area where the lovely ladies checked our letter once more and then entered the main room.
It was a huge square room, With seating on the left and right, Almost like school assembly! At the front of the room, There is a huge screen where you wait for your number to show. On the right are booths, For checking documentation and a passage way where more booths are for interviews.

Once your number is called, It also tells you the booth number to go to. Once there, A worker asked to see my Birth Certificate, Police Certificate, My fiancés tax returns and our passports. As my fiancé was at the interview with me, A recent letter of intent wasn't necessary. The worker checked through all paperwork, Grabbed our file and we were then told to go back to the main room and wait to be called for the interview.

By the time our number was called again, We had been at the embassy for almost 2 hours. I recommend bringing a book to read!!!
We went to the allocated booth and were greeted by another lovely worker. She was friendly and you could tell she was genuine. Much to my relief!! She flipped through our original k1 paperwork in front of her, Asked me What I did for a living, How we met, Had either of us been married before, Had we any children. Then she smiled, Said well you guys are approved, Congratulations!!
The interview was LITERALLY FOUR MINUTES LONG!! Lmao!!

Overall, It was a great experience and I have nothing but wonderful things to say about the staff. As long as you're genuine and have all required documents, You're gonna be fine!!
Rating : Very Good

*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
