So after I got off the plane I went through the immigration gate number 8 which is only for the immigration visa so not much people in line . There was only one person before me. It took around 7-8 minutes for. the whole process. You need to give them your passport , the envelope, and the customs form (which indicates what you bring to the U.S). The custome agent will check the documents , fill out the form that was A4 and have you sign your name on 2 parts of it ( he gave me the half of it also ) . Then after that I went to get my luggages , took them to the place to check and then just leave them there . they will take the luggages to your next airplane . I went to the custome . You need to put your stuffs in the tray and have them scan it. It's including your coat also because I forgot that lol . And also need to separate your computer from the bag. They will have X-Ray scanner to scan you. After that they will have the lady searching your body for the suspected stuffs. Then you live happily ever after. |

My wife had a good experience at the dreaded "window #5". After asking all of her questions the lady told my wife to go to another window. She remembered reading "before leaving ask the interviewer what result you should tell your husband" this saved us from getting a 221. Below is the interview.
Window #5
She : Hello , how are you?
She : can you promise that everything you say or show will be the truth?
She : How you both meet?
She : how do you communicate? (Paraphrased)
She: Where is he now?
She : what he is doing for living?
She : has he been married before?
She : how many times?
She: when did he get divorce?
She: have u been married before?
She : do you have any children?
She : how many time he come to see you?
She : When did the last time u met him?
She: have long have you known each other?
She : alright , thank you so much (handed me my documents back )
She : please contact the window number 3
Me : so , what's the result that I should tell my husband?
She : everything looks great but we will issue you after we get more information
Me : how long I have to wait?
She : as soon as we get your additional document
Me : may I know what kind of document?
She : there is one paper missed . It's about divorce paper.
Me : I have that paper with me . May I show you that ?
She : you have it with you?
Me : yes ( finding in folder)
Me : here it is ( give her the paper and also the authorized one )
She : (looking)
She : is this the original one?
Me : yes
she : can we keep this with us?
Me : of course
She : well, in this case ' congratulations ' ! Now you can go home .
Me : Thank you so much! |

*Biometrics Appointment review*
0800 appointment, arrived at 0720 we were told to wait for entry until 0745. Bring your appt letter, green card (or stamped passport), some have needed marriage Lisc for some reason... leave all jewelry, change, junk, bracelets, food, books, knitting supplies, phones, coffee mugs, sunglasses etc IN YOUR VEHICLE.... you will just slow down the security line or be turned away. If you keep it simple, you will have zero problems. We were in at 0745 and walking out at 0800. Top notch operation. |

Timeline Comments: None yet, be the first!
*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.
