Event Description
Review Date : June 19, 2015
Embassy Review : My interview was on June 17 at 1pm. I'd had a letter updating my time from 8am to 1pm but not an email. Got to the embassy at 12.15pm, by which time I was about 10th in line. Shortly after 12.30 they started processing everyone in line and doing the security check. I set off the alarm about 3 times before they realized what was causing it - a big necklace, which I normally would be aware of removing in airports but I was so nervous I forgot.

I got stickers with my number in line and sat down to wait. The screen at the front of the room was helpful in displaying which documents to get ready. I can't remember how long I waited to be seen but it didn't feel too long. Once called to the window, the guy checked I had all the documents required and asked a couple of quick questions, and I went to sit down again. I hadn't brought a print-out of the courier confirmation but it wasn't a big problem - he just had to print it himself.

Then I sat down again to await the actual interview. The lady doing the interview was pretty serious at first and then seemed to relax. She asked me the typical questions - how did my husband and I meet, what does he do for work, what do I do, do we have kids, etc. No surprises. Then she just said "Enjoy Minnesota!" and that was that!

NOTE - There are delays in visa processing at the minute due to a pretty serious sounding computer glitch at the embassy. I was advised they're taking 3-4 weeks to process rather than the usual 5 days or so. So don't book travel too close to your interview date!!!
Rating : Good

*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.

** Not all cases are transfered
