Member Reviews:

Consulate Review: Manila, Philippines Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : January 25, 2019 Embassy Review : It all went very smooth. I did not attend the interview. We both thought it would be better to save the money for plane tickets, and other expenses. My fiancé had her appointment at 7:10am. She said that they had a little pre-screening session when she entered embassy. They asked her when we first met, and what was the date. She then went for the main interview. She was standing behind a piece of glass just like at a bank teller. The man asked her where we first met as well. She said japan, as she was on vacation and we both met there for the first time. He asked if she had lived there, and she said no she was just on vacation. He next asked about the 2nd visit I had with here in the Philippines. He asked about the date of my travel, and that was it! He never even asked to see any of my paperwork at all that I sent to her. He then said I am going to approve your k1 fiancé visa. She said she only spent 5 minutes with him and that was it. She was there a total of about 2 hrs. 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.
