| Embassy Review : |
So today I had my embassy interview at 10.30am. It was sooooo busy in general especially for tourist visas.
I showed my confirmation and passport and they pointed me to a separate queue. Waited there outside the security booth where they admitted 4 people at a time. Quick little bag scan all pretty painless.
Walked around the building to the entrance where I handed my confirmation and passport again and they stuck a load of stickers with my number.
Walked into the hall and took a seat and waited to be called up. Had a huge panic as I hadn't printed out my DS 260 confirmation but found the email in hope that would suffice. Within around 20 mins I was called up. The guy was so lovely and told me it didn't matter the more important document was my courier info. Took my passport, my birth certificate and copy, marriage certificate and copy, husbands last tax return, and my joint sponsor as he wasn't sure the officer would be satisfied with my continuation of employment salary.
One of the pages from my aunts 1040 was missing which he said I may have to email however he said it was down to the officer and he did t think it would a issue as my aunts salary more then covered the requirement. Was up there for around 10 mins all very pleasant.
Then went around the corner paid the fee and by the time I walked back my number was called! Went back around, pledged to tell the truth, gave my fingerprints again and was asked a few questions. Where we met, when we first met in person, who went to see the other first, asked if we had a daughter and if she had a us passport, asked where my husband was now (looking after our baby) and then asked our plans to move back. I asked if he wanted to see the flight confirmation and Airbnb booking and he said no. Said he was glad we had everything planned as so many people had no clue.
Then told me I was approved and it'll be 10-14 days for my passport. |

*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.
