Member Reviews:

Consulate Review: Moscow, Russia
Review Topic: K1 Visa
Event Description
Review Date : July 10, 2015
Embassy Review : My fiance arrived there at 0930 and waited with a bunch of other people waiting to enter the consulate, they checked her appointment confirmation and checked her bag (just a simple plastic one with all the documentation). She didn't bring a cell phone or even a belt, so once they started letting people in, it was pretty fast.

She was instructed to go to the area where they handle K-1 visas (and other immigrant visa types presumably), and after they took her paperwork, they had her sit in the hallway there until she was called up for her interview. I believe she mentioned it took about an hour before she was called.

The interview itself was fast, just simple questions about our relationship, how we met, if we had a date for the wedding yet, etc. The consular officer did read through our (very trimmed down, but still ~100 pages worth of) emails/whatsapp chat logs, but not super carefully, just to get a gist of what they contained I guess. She then said the visa was approved and gave an estimate on when it would arrive and with that she was done!

Pretty good experience overall
Rating : Very 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
