Consulate Review: Moscow, Russia Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : March 24, 2017 Embassy Review : I had my interview on March 22, I was very nervous about the interview but it went fairly smoothly. The Consular Officer was a very nice young lady. The interview was condacted in English. The CO asked me just a few simple questions: How we met? How many times we visited each other? Was your fiance married before? Has he ever filed a petition for another woman? What my job is? What my daughter does in the USA? (she studies in college there) What her major is? That's it. The CO said my visa was approved and congratulated me. The resultes of my medical exam had not arrived to the Embassy by the time of the interview because I was sent for TB tests that take 6 weeks to be done. The CO said that visa would be issued after the results are received by the Embassy. I spent about 2 hours inside the Embassy, the interview itself lasted max 10 minutes. Rating : Very Good

*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
