Consulate Review: Tokyo, Japan Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa Event Description Review Date : December 18, 2018 Embassy Review : I got there on time and it took me 3 hours until I came out from the building. You will be called 3 times ; hand in documents, take fingerprints and interview. Before you're called the first time, you need to place required documents in order. After taking fingerprints, they give you a leaflet about DV to read while waiting for the last step. ---My interview questions--- Who is petitioning you? / How did you guys meet? / When did you guys start dating? / Have you had any US visa before? / When did you get married? / Do you guys have any children together? After these questions, the officer said my visa has been approved and it'll be delivered within 1 week. It was easier than I expected. I'm sure as long as you have everything they need and you know about your spouse like everyone does, the visa is yours! Good luck! Rating : 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
