Embassy Review : |
We had our interview on Monday June 19 at 8:00. We got there at 7:50 and after about a 20 min wait my wife went to the first window for the document check/finger printing. We brought way more paperwork than was on the laminated checklist, but better safe than sorry. Some of the paperwork that was emphasized during the process, like the DS-260 confirmation, wasn't even on the list.
The document check took about 15-20 minutes and then it was maybe a 40 min wait before talking to the interviewer. They asked pretty basic questions: when did you first meet, have you both visited back and forth, what will you do when you move to the US. Maybe a 10 minute chat before she was given the "welcome to the US" letter!
It did seem to take longer than I had seen from other reviews. When we left, the woman at the front door seemed surprised it had taken that long too. |

*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.
