Comments : |
Going through the border in the USA was very smooth, was asked no further questions when I handed in my packet of documents. I was taken to a secondary room (which is normal) where they opened the documents, inputted some information into a computer, stamped my passport and sent me on my merry way to my new life in the USA with my beautiful wife. |

Embassy Review : |
The whole process was very smooth, my interview was at 10 am and I arrived at 9:30 am. After presenting my interview letter and going through security, I waited in line until around 9:45 am when they check your DS-260 confirmation and tell you where to go. In a smaller waiting room, I waited until around 10 am where someone checked my documents. Then about 15 minutes later I had my interview. The lady was nice and not intimidating at all. I swore an oath to tell the truth, and then she asked me where I met my spouse, where she lives and whether I will be moving in with her when I get to the USA. After that, she approved it. I was so shocked at how quick it was that I asked her something like "can I leave then?!" and she smiled and said yes, I will receive my passport soon. I feel very fortunate and happy. I think it is perhaps because the evidence we provided in our I-130 was very extensive so perhaps they had no reason to doubt the legitimacy of our marriage. Or perhaps I was just lucky! |

*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.
