Comments : My interview schedule was 6:45 am. I was one of the first 20 being interviewed. I left the Embassy 8:30 am with a big smile.

Pre-screening:
Officer only asked for my passport, birth certificate, nbi, foreign police clearance (former OFW), cenomar and sealed medical report from St. Luke's. And he asked me if I have pictures and so I showed few pictures I brought with me - pictures of my fiance and I together, my fiance and I with my family, my fiance and I with my best friend, and screenshot of Skype video call with my fiance's parents.

Interview:
These are the only questions that were asked from me by the American Consular Officer:
What is your petitioner's name?
Where will you be living in the US?
How many times your petitioner was married before?
What is the reason of their divorce?
Does he have kids?
Where did the two of you meet? (We met in a non-online dating website and explained briefly what's the website all about.)

No other documents were asked from me. Only took less than 5 mins for my interview.

The Consular Officers were friendly, not intimidating at all. Just be polite and confident.

could you please tell me if you used an attorney to file your I751 or did you do it yourself?

Hello! We did it on our own.

*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
