I had my interview scheduled at 1:00 pm. We arrived there around 12:40pm. the parking was really bad and we had to walk a little to get to the building. We waited for couple of minutes. We were called around 1:35 pm, finished around 1:40ish. ðŸ˜
First set of questions are just all about basic questions in the new I-485 Parts 1-5 then Part 8 😊 Mine was the old form so first part of I-485 and G325A. Some questions asked were :
• How do you like Ohio?
• Who's living with you?
• Who attended on your wedding?
Then after, she asked if I want to give other evidence that I want to include so I just gave her pictures. She kept the family picture (with our dog, she asked what's the name of our dog haha), wedding pictures, picture of me and my husband's family, a picture of me and my husband taken in Hawaii then a pic taken in Ohio. â¤ï¸
She didn't ask my husband anything at all 🤣🤣
She said we're recommended for approval and she'll final approved me at the end of the day. She explained that I'll be getting a 2 year one since we're married for less than a year.
God is soooo good! â¤ï¸â¤ï¸ |

I promised myself to make a review when I got approved so I can help other people who's still on process to give them more insights and what to expect during the interview 
Had my interview last November 28,2016 at 9:00 am and it was such a smooth process! I went there around 7:30 and the guard let me in around 8:00 am to wait for the 9:00 K1 and immigrant visa to be called. Around 8:45 am, they called Immigrant visa and fiancé visa applicants, we lined up to the tent and they get my DS160 and put a sticker with my name and letter B which means I'll be lining up to the B seats inside. I get inside around 9:10 am and only few people were there. First, I went to Data Entry, the guy asked my Birthday and Address of Petitioner/Address where you will be staying in US (the MOST IMPORTANT information that you should know because they will keep on asking it from data entry to interview) Second step was Pre-Screening, I waited around 15 mins to be called. The lady asked my Name, Birthday, Birthday of Petitioner and my relationship to the Petitioner, How we met, When did we meet, How many times did he visit me and when. In this step they will get your NBI CLEARANCE, CENOMAR AND BIRTH CERTIFICATE ( must be original). She also took a little look at our pics and ask if we have chatlogs and I showed her our videocall screenshots. After it, she told me to proceed to Fingerprint Scanning ( I think it was Window 58). Waited for like 10 mins to have my fingerprint scanned. The Black American lady was so nice!! She greeted me good morning and asked how am I doing. She then asked my name and my birthday and then I scanned my finger! After it, the last and most awaited step in the whole visa process!!! INTERVIEW!!!! I wanna thank God that I made this far wohooooo! I waited for like 15 minutes for the interview. After it I was called and proceed to WINDOW 60 :D The Consular Offier was so sweet and so niceeee! She greeted me Good Morning and I greeted her back! Then she first asked : So Queenie, TELL ME ABOUT DREW (My fiancé) I find it nice when she called me by my name and keep on smiling while asking me, it feels like I'm just chitchatting with a new american friend! Lol so next she asked :
How and when did you met? I told her that we first started talking because he asked what's my favorite filipino food. And then the CO laughed lol and she said so what is Drew's favorite filipino food?
How many times he visited you? And when?
His age and your age
What is his work?
What is his designation? I told her that my fiancé is a strategic debriefer and she said, "Oh! That sounds interesting! She then asked :
Did he meet your parents?
What did you mom say about him?
After I answered it, she then said " Congratulations Queenie your visa is approved!" Yaaaayyy!! Went outside smiling and happy! After 6 business days, I got my visa! â¤ï¸ |

*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.
