Consulate Review: South Africa Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : December 21, 2017 Embassy Review : We went to the consulate in Johannesburg 15 minutes before our appointment at 1:00 but were only called inside after 1:30-1:45. There was a really nice man who checked us in and allowed me to be with my fiance the whole time. We waited till about 3:00 when the preingerview documents were collected. My partner went up to the window to give everything but had a question and asked the lady in the window if she could ask me (her partner) something. She allowed me to stay with her the rest of the time. The. A few minutes later she was called up for the interview. The guy reviewing her case in the window was cold and asked how we met, she said, and the basked "and then?" so.she continued then he asked when did we get engaged and she messed up with the wrong year (she said 2016 instead of 2017) so he asked her again. Then said she was approved. I went up to her when she gave me a thumbs up and embraced her - looked at the window and thanked the guy. He smiled and we left happy. Just waiting to get it back now though they said it will take 7-10 business days. I hope it doesn't take so long! 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.
