| Embassy Review : |
The process a little over 3 hours. I waited in a long line for at least an hour. My passport was checked, then an officer lead me to an office where I sat again for about 45 minutes. I was taken to a desk where I sat in front of an man who went through my sealed envelope. The man was kind of sarcastic. He asked me, "What kind of work are you planning to do? Something like McDonald's?" I told him what my career is and that I plan to continue following that. He asked where my wife and I met. He asked me again, like he didn't understand me the first time, so I repeated myself more clearly.
He asked how many times I met with her in person after we were married. I told him it was one time. He looked at me like I gave him the wrong answer and said, "You met her only one time?" I said, "Yes" and explained when and where. He exclaimed, "You met her only ONE time after you were married?" I said, "YES, one time" and explained again....we got married & were together 4 months, then later we met one time. He asked me again!!! So I slowly began explaining everything from the date of our marriage forward, but he didn't let me finish. He seemed quite aggravated. He left and returned with another officer who asked me, "How many times did you meet with you wife in person after you were married?"....At that point I felt like I was in the Twilight Zone. I asked what answer they wanted from me other than the truth. The first officer seemed pissed off, but the other one was trying not to laugh. I explained AGAIN! Finally the officer said, "Okay" and stamped my visa in my passport and let me go. I wish my wife could have been with me, but my flight was diverted and my first US airport ended up being Huston instead of Denver International where my wife was waiting for me. |

*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.
