POE at Atlanta was super easy I just told them my visa type and i was ushered into the line near the tri-pod area waited in line for about 5 mins it wasn't a busy day but staff seemed low cuz i was second in line. I walked up to an officer that was a bit stern but still had a bit of humor I was asked who I was going to see, how i met my fiance, how many times he had been to my country seemed more like a convo than an interrogation, he took my fingerprints then sent me over to the tripod area where i waited for about 5 mins, my name was called i went up to the officer who asked if i had any food drugs etc i was taking with me then he handed me passport and said you know how long you have to get married if not you must return home immediately I said yes sir and he welcomed me to America total time spent less than 20 mins had a 1hr and 53 mins layover I had no problems finding my connection because the staff were super friendly my first experience flying and i was blown away at the great service loved it. |

*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.
