Embassy Review : |
waited forever for an interview and my case had been to so many places, checked against every terrorist database, in US and probably all of its allies, took close to 2 years for an interview, but finally on my interview date...
CIS officer was a polite guy. i had all my papers in order with copies of everything and my case looked very old and complete. but it still needed further reviews, it was gonna be "recommended for approval" but it needed one more final REVIEW!!
when i asked him about travelling, he advised me not to do it, but not a word of i-131. "better not to leave the country, it creates extra paperwork" were his exact words.
somehow the final review took over 1.5 mths, by then i had to make a trip to Canada and now everything is litterally abandoned. i'm back to step one on the visa ladder. |

*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.
