Arrived at USCIS office from Delaware about 10:15 AM for 11:30 AM interview. Tried a parking meter and got 20 minutes for 6 quarters. Moved to the lot across the street from USCIS and paid the 20 bucks. There is a free Riteaid parking lot nearby but unsure about monitoring. Walked around then entered at 11:00AM. Standard airport style security to gain access. Was directed upstairs to wait outside Room 3. Was called at 12:10 by Duane. He checked ID and passports , swore us in and asked each of us to verifiy our application names and current address. Asked to see original marriage certificate. Asked her all the security questions again. Asked if we had additional evidence of relationship and we gave bank and utility bill statements, three letters of recommedation, and copies of proof of beneficienary on will, saving and investment accounts. He also took 6 out of 30 photos taken since arrival. That was it. Said he will approve and we should get green card in two weeks. Short and sweet. Took about 20 minutes. |

Embassy Review : |
Fiancee arrived just after 8 AM for an 8:30 appointment. Many people out front but after being directed to the blue line, there were only a few for K1 interview. DS160 was checked and figure prints taken then sat in waiting room. First officer was Chinese and quite helpful and pleasant. Checked for fee receipt and took NBI. Checked out pictures but did not look at her handmade book of evidence. After another wait, second officer was Caucasian, probably American. She was efficient but curt. Also checked original pictures but not book of evidence. Asked why she did not have police report from Dubai, where my fiancee had worked 10 years ago. We had sent an inquiry to the HK embassy previously about the need for this report and they had replied with the travel.state.gov statement that it was not necessary unless she was physically present in UAE, so this is what she said, and the subject was dropped. Also asked her birthday, how we met, and how long ago. She took the the I-134 and supporting financial statements then said she was free to go. Process took about one and half hours.

*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.
