Embassy Review : |
I went to the Starbucks in the Citibank Tower across the road first to get breakfast and relax (It opens at 6:30am).
My appt was at 8:30am so I went over at 8:15am. I went through the IV entrance and lined up inside to have my bags examined and hand over my phone. Once inside the building I went up to the first floor and turned right to go into the Immigration visa room.
Once inside I got my forms ready in the order they asked in the letter they give at the front door. They called my name and I went and handed everything in. I had a minor problem about my visa fee being lower than it should have been, but my lawyer had asked the consulate and they said I could pay on the day. Once the guy had all my forms and certificate, he took them back inside and I sat down to wait, this took the longest.
He came back and explained how I could pay the fee after the interview if I was approved. Then he asked me a few questions about my fiance and how we met. After that I sat back down and later the IO asked me to come up.
This part was so quick! My pack was very thourough and I had a lot of evidence. He asked me to do the oath to say that what I was saying was true etc. Then he asked about my fiance, his job, how we met etc. He was nice and told me it was approved. He gave me a reciept to take to the cashier which I did and then brought back. He took my passport and then told me I could use the TravelDocs site to note where I want to pick up my passport. TravelDocs were the ones who messed up my visa fee in the first place, I mentioned this to the IO and he said that the site had been messed up recently. He doesn't seem to think I should have a problem, but if I don't hear within 10 working days then I should give a call.
The experience was good and not stressful at all. Don't worry! |

*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.
