| Comments : |
I was first off of my flight, and arrived with the tail-end of a previous flight. I waited in line for about 5 minutes. My finger prints and photo were taken, then I was sent to the office to wait for processing. There was already about 10 people in the room waiting, and due to the arrival of several flights, most agents were working on passport control. Therefore, there was only a few staff in the office. After about 30-45 minutes of waiting, I was called up to the desk, and asked who sponsored my application. It literally took 5 minutes, and my passport got stamped. |

| Embassy Review : |
Very pleasant experience. Arrived at 12, for a 13:00 appointment, got into the embassy at 12:30. Got my ticket number, I901. I was called up at exactly 13:00 to have my finger prints taken and hand in my documents - overall took 20 minutes. I sat back down and waited 30 minutes or so for my interview. The lady was very pleasant. I was put under oath, had my fingerprints checked, and then asked a few simple questions: Who is on the Affidavit of Support, Where were you married, and does your wife have a big family (any brothers or sisters). I answered them and she typed a few things, and then said "I have approved your visa, it will arrive by courier within the next 14 days. Make sure you go to the US by January 15th 2016, as your medical expires then. You will receive a packet which says DO NOT OPEN, so make sure you don't open it". I thanked her, and I was out by 14:10. |

*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.
