Consulate Review: Finland Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : July 23, 2018 Embassy Review : Arrived at embassy early (about 30min before my interview time). At the the gate they took my passport and asked to wait. Waited about 5-10minutes and was asked in. The officers took my bag and all other stuff than the papers. Then went for the waiting room which was packed! I think about 30 people before me. Waited first like 1 hour 20 minutes and was called for the first officer. She took only the papers, no questions was asked. Waited. Was called again because some documents were missing (gave him the missing papers). Finally was asked for the 3rd officer. He took fingerprints 3 times and asked to tell the truth and that the paperwork is truthful. Then he asked the following questions: - Why are you going to US? - Fiancé name - Fiancé occupation - Fiancé city of residence - Fiancé family - Name of fiancé mother - Fiancé hobbies - Fiancé favorite food - Has he been to Finland - Have I been to US - Where did we meet - Have I lived abroad (where, how long) - When planning on traveling to US Then he said he needs to check something again. Waited. He came back and again was looking the papers. Then he said he will check when I will get my passport. And then he said I am good to go and the visa is approved. And will get the visa next week. Rating : Very 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.

** Not all cases are transfered
