| Embassy Review : |
My interview was on January 25th,2017.
Got inside the embassy around 7:45am after security check and clearance.
Dropped my appointment letter at the front desk, had a seat till 8:30am there about and was called to window 2,submitted my official documents and supporting documents (Proof). Did take finger print and asked to pay my VISA fee, did that and returned the receipt and was asked to sit and wait for my name to be called. Name was called up at window 4 after about an hour and half later of which i got to witness smiles and frowns on people faces as they left their interview.
This is what ensued;
Had a pleasant greeting with the CO,
Then he asked me to scan my 4 right hand fingers, once done he asked me to raise my right hand as you know the drill ...... and i say I DO!
Next he said to me and i quote lol " I have taken a look at your documents and i must say this is the best organized documents i have ever seen, i almost wish i could keep them". YES i did put work into it and very much felt flattered to his compliment. He then push it to me and said he was gonna ask me a few questions.
Questions asked are as follows;
1) have you travel before?
2) where to?
3) how long?
Now here came the tricky question of which i picked up on it like TING light bulb lol
4) what is your plan when you get to the usa?
NOTE: Your visa is to go marry once you enter, best answer to that is I am going to marry my fiance!
CO looked at me and smiled saying good answer
Dont say school or work... or just to chop burger and pizza k3k3 lol I kid.
5) what are your wedding plans?
Am approving your visa and was handed a blue sheet to pick up my visa in two weeks, he also highlighted the Dhl office location and part on the sheet to check my status online in other to pick up when its issued.
That was it 
Just a little advice, its about quality and not quantity of proof provided.
I witnessed within the hour and half before i got called the huge quantity of ridiculous amount of proofs presented by people, NO OFFENSE to anyone (Put yourself in the CO shoes, am sure you wouldnt wanna go through an encyclopedia when you have more than 100plus people to interview). I did mine as if i were making a time capsule of memories with my fiancee for my fiancee as a gift and not the interviewing CO.
I purchased my own printer and 2 A4 RIM which i used half of just one, other stationary i got all from ACCRA MALL GAME.
Also much appreciation to Members who helped out with your experiences and advice. God bless.

Timeline Comments: None yet, be the first!
*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.
