Embassy Review : |
First of all,in the file i took at the interview i had the following documents:
Passport
NOA2
DS-160 (confirmation page)
 2 Passport style photo
Affidavit of Support Form I-134
Supporting documents for 134 (letter from the bank,letter from the employer,last 2 pay stubs,W2 for 2016 and 2017)They ask only for pay stubs and tax return
Federal income tax return form for 2016
Birth Certificate (original and copy)
Copy of his divorce certificate(in the instructions i received they NEVER told me to bring it,but i did "just in case" and i was right)
Police clearances from my country and the country i used to leave for more then 6 months (in my case Bahrain)
Medical Exam
Proof of relationship(screen shots of our conversation on different app,e-mail,facebook,whatsup)
New pictures showing we met since we applied for I-129F
TNT - Confirmation page
Â
Confirmation page tax fee(VERY IMPORTANT)
Don't bring big bags,the personal was very professional.Make sure you have transport. The location is a little far from any public transport or taxi.From the moment i enter untill finish it was around 1 hour and 10 minutes.I had a man interviewing me.He was very nice and asked basic questions about us.How did we meet?Were was my fiance born?When are we planing to have the wedding?Is my family going to attend?How do i know i will like US?
He then said my visa was approved and i will recive my passport home.Overall i will say it was a pleasant and smooth experience.

*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
