Entered at Lewiston, NY. Very simple process and minimal waiting. Excluding the queue to get to the point of inspection, it was about 20 minutes inside customs. |

Contacted my congressman’s office after my n400 interview was scheduled and my i751 status did not change. Confirmed that the i751 will be sent to my local office to be adjudicated at the same time as the n400.
Opened a service request on August 10, 2020 as no movement on the file. Expected to hear a reply by September 1, 2020.
Called USCIS on September 14th for infopass for a stamp. Received ADIT stamp on September 15, as extension letter was expiring.
Received notice (17 days) on September 22 that interview was scheduled.
Confirmation received my i751 will be adjudicated at the same time as my n400.
I751 adjudicated at the same time as N400. |

Filed online 365 days after filing i751 (still pending).
Interview scheduled for April 14, 2020, but then de-scheduled per the covid-19 office closures.
Re-scheduled for October 8, 2020 and will be a combination interview as my I-751 is also outstanding.
Due to covid, the office offered a same day oath ceremony with an administrator, so I am, finally, done!! |

Embassy Review : |
I had my K-1 interview today and it was approved. This was literally the part of this process that intimidated me the most, but it was by far the easiest.
Line up early!! By 7:15am the line is already quite long. Stay at the Courtyard Marriott as it's literally a block away and Montreal traffic is horrid.
Make sure to have a copy of your passports biometric page. I didn't read that I needed that anywhere, but being the neurotic organized person I am I wanted to have everything I needed plus a whole lot more of things I might need (and duplicates, just incase.)
Also, bring the proof of paying for the DS-160. I had that (luckily) but also didn't realize I'd need that.
Aside from waiting outside, the whole thing was wrapped up in about 30 minutes. The interviewer was a young guy and I think I lucked out with him bc he was really personable and just made it seem like a nice conversation rather than a government grilling :-)
RELAX and get EXCITED!!!
Now I anxiously await the return of the visa package so my fiancé and I can get our life together started!! |

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.
** Not all cases are transfered
