| Embassy Review : |
I had an 08:00 interview and when I arrived at 07:35 there was already a bit of a queue. Definitely advise making sure you have no big electronics (one guy had to leave because he had a laptop), photocopies of all original documents (certificates etc they require - one person was told they may have to leave and get copies) and an express post envelope if required.
You can definitely hear every word of these interviews and I heard application get approved and one get maybe rejected (an income issue) right in front of me.
I was really stressed, but the guy who interviewed me was really friendly and our case was approved. I got asked general questions like how we met, if my wife had been to Australia, if I had been to US and more specific questions related to what I was saying (i.e I mentioned we'd been on holidays to Africa and was asked which countries in Africa we went to) that felt more conversational.
I was out of there by 9:10, calling my wife as soon as I could while carrying all the excess stuff I had brought with me (photo albums, back up documents etc) feeling very glad to have been so prepared and approved. |

*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.
