Summary:
Only had one short 2 week visit with finacee. Wasn't able to make interview.
No problems. Got there only 15 minutes before schedule. Go to front of line and ask guard.
You get two copies of the same number. First time they call you to banker like window.
For us, they didn't collect pictures, phone/chats, resume, but it's required to have them.
Then you wait maybe 45 minutes? They call your number again for a short interview.
Remember, this is all conducted standing up in a banker like window.
===
Interview: Learn all the top questions on this site guides.
What is your fiance's name?
What is his birth date?
Does he speak Chinese? If you answer a little, they will expect you to speak English. So maybe say alot?
So they continue interview in English.
When was his last visit.
How you met? Who introduce you?
Are you in communist party?
Have you travel outside of China or to USA before?
What you like about your fiance?
You are approved. Here is confirmation letter.
Took fingerprints
===
Visa and packet received from EMS 9 days later. You will get SMS alert from EMS. Pay 59 rmb to EMS guy.
Don't open visa packet. Just open the plastic to take passport out and verify visa details.

*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
