The interview was scheduled, however we received a phone call from the Manchester office stating that they had enough evidence to approve the I-485 and we no longer had to appear for the interview on the scheduled date. |

Embassy Review : |
Hi all,
This is long over due but I would like to submit my review about my interview at the Indonesian Embassy on the 28th of April 2015
I arrived at 11.30 and my interview was set for 12.30 PM, they made me wait by the gate for the timing and my dad who was with me was asked to wait outside for me. There is no waiting space for people that are not allowed into the embassy. And you have to apply to bring someone else in. You can't just walk in... just an FYI
Around 12.15 they began giving us this basket to put our phones and other electronics in and we made our way into the embassy entrance, where we passed through security similar to what you'd get an the airport and then i got a number for my electronics and made my way into the consulate.
It was a slight adventure getting in the place, and if you want to use the toilet or anything do it before you enter the final room.
I went in and waited. I thought there was a number system but there isn't not knowing what to do I just sat down. My name was the first to be called. I went to locket number 5 and then the lady asked me for all my documents and asked me if I have ever been married, if I have ever been to the states or if I have lived in places apart from Indonesia for more than 6 months to a year.
I said no, no and yes. She then took my papers, and told me that they will call me for the interview in Locket 1.
I was once again the first to be called into the interview booth, after waiting for about half n hour.
It's not room. It was a standing booth and we were separated by a glass window thing.
Anyway we started with an oath where I promised that everything I would say and had to say was the truth. I said yes.
she asked me how we met. Where we met. Had I been to the states before this. She didn't ask to see proof of our relationship. But she did ask me why I was in Kuala Lumpur so often and how long I lived there. I then showed her that I was a student in KL and proved by giving the police report from Malaysia and showing my then student visa. She also asked how many times we met over the course of the year.
She then asked me if I had any questions for her. I asked her information regarding visa applications for my family and then that was it.
she then said this has been a pleasure and I wish you well in the States. She said my visa was approved and gave me a blue slip. I was sooo happy and extremely grateful. I nearly started to cry, but I went out and informed this other lady that was waiting for her interview, I could not wait because my dad was outside waiting for me. Overall the experience was great and they were kind to me at the embassy.
I hope this helps! :D

Embassy Review : |
My connecting flight was from Narita. I entered the immigration hall which was extremely crowded and followed the normal people traffic for tourist visa. I kept getting shuffled about because the lines were extremely long.
finally I was standing in one line and so close to being my turn when an officer came up to me and asked me if I was here on K1 and I said yes. She then took me to another line 2 lanes down. I said I was sorry and didn't know she said it's alright and it happens a lot since it's so crowded. She smiled at me and wished me luck. The waiting time was definitely longer then the whole immigration process.
It was my turn and the immigration officer called me forward.
He asked me if this was my first time in the US I said yes.
He asked me how me and my Fiance met.
He asked me what my Fiance does for work.
Where he lives?
What I planned on doing on that I am here? - this is replied that I will be getting married and then hopefully begin the process where I can find work.
He opened the packaged and looked through the documents.
He said everything was in order and wished me good luck and told me to come back to Chicago as it is a great city to explore and that was not my final destination (I was heading to Boston).
He also reminded me that I have 90 days to be married and that I should not preform any fraud of any kind. And he inquired if I had read my rights as an immigrant. And that abuse of any kind should be reported, he then reminded me again that I should be married within 90 days.
Overall the experience was great. the officer was nice and kind. He smiled and did not make me feel uncomfortable at all. The only harassment was being shuffled about by the other officers while waiting in line.

*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.
