Comments : |
Everything went smooth, took about 1 hour to get processed, mostly just sitting and waiting in a waiting room.
Officers took our visa package and went into another room (without us). Came back 1 hour later with stamped passport and we were on our way.
I asked if SS card would be mailed to us since we marked it on our form. Officer said no, it's a separate issue and we need to apply in person. Which we did. |

Embassy Review : |
Arrived at around 9am for 9:15 appointment. After clearing security we went to the next room where they scanned the TNT delivery sheet into their system and placed a barcode sticker on the back of the passport.
We were then sent to the window where you get your number for waiting in line and give medical exams envelope and any other missing documents.
The person gave us a number but also took medical exam envelope and processed all the documents at the same time.
We sat down again waiting for fingerprints for which we were called about 5 minutes later, to the same window.
Then about a 30 minute wait to speak with the CO. There were three people who were waiting before us, with earlier numbers, but we were called in first, so I guess the number order or "first come first served" does not apply.
The CO was a very nice lady.
She asked the beneficiary the following questions:
- How did you meet your husband?
- Do you have kids, how many?
- Are the kids USC's?
- Have you ever been to the US before?
Then she asked me (the petitioner) what steps I took to reestablish domicile in the US. I told her few of the main steps I have taken.
She then said that everything looks good, your visa has been approved, you will receive your passport in 2-3 business days
We were done exactly 1 hour after entering the embassy. |

*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.
