| Embassy Review : |
A relatively straightforward process. Arrived 20 minutes early and was allowed straight in. I had a jacket and a laptop bag with my documents. You leave everything in a small locker, but anything bigger than a small backpack/bag would be too big. Basically take a bag for your documents, leave everything else behind.
Everyone was polite and friendly, both to me and the other people there. After waiting 30 minutes I was called to a window and we started to go through my documents with a Kiwi woman. I had sent all originals but had duplicates ready. They asked for my original police certificate which threw me as I was certain I had sent it in with my original package. Eventually it was found in my oackage. We updated some financial information and took fingerprints. I then sat down again, and then was called and spoke to the consular officer who was American. I had to swear an oath that the information was correct and that was about it. They said that everything seemed fine and I could expect to receive my visa within a week. Interview was on a Tuesday, visa arrived today, Friday. Finally the wait is over! |

*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.
