CR1 Visa On Hand today! Minus the big packet Thank you for the group, it is a great help especially on NVC stage onwards <3
Will share my timeline below
July 24, 2018 Mailed in Packet
July 25, 2018 NOA 1 or Priority Date POTOMAC Service Center
Dec 20, 2018 NOA2
Jan 25 2019 NVC Case Number via Email
Jan 27 2019 Paid all fees
Feb 27, 2019 Just submitted all civil documents today
(Wrong move not to get NBI with AKA ahead of time)
March 2, 2019 NVC has accepted all the uploaded documents. Already pre-registered on SLEC's website.
March 14, 2019 Got interview date today (in 3 weeks)
March 20 Had Day 1 Medical last Monday March 18 (wrong move, lots of applicants on a Monday)
Will have to return after 2 weeks for Pregnancy Test (should have no contact or on proper contraceptives) prior to giving me immunization. 😑
March 31 2019 Went back March 27 (Wednesday) to have PT done and immunization (TDAP and MMR) but latter was out of stock, have to go (call) back again on April 11 for availability
April 4, 2019 VISA INTERVIEW 7:40AM APPROVEDâ—
Questions were:
What's my name,
birthday,
if I traveled or lived outside the country,
how we met, (asked for pics but didn't look)
petitioner's name,
age,
petitioners address,
petitioners job,
how many kids we have,
if she has CRBA already,
How many marriages i had,
How many marriages petitioner's had (i offered petitioner's div decree but making sure i will get those back ðŸ˜)
And she told me to go to finger scanning at window 50 or 51
Lady asked for my DS260 but former consul forgot to give it back to me even said she has given it to me but later saw it there. (Be attentive)
American consul at finger print scanning was nice and said too much paper works probably why she forgot to give it to me. (4 fingers on left hand, 4 fingers on right hand, 2 thumbs)
And told me to proceed to the interview
American consul can speak good Filipino as i heard from previous applicant but talked to me in English and even tried talking to my daughter but she rather run around and play.
APRIL 10, 2018 Visa is Issued
APRIL 13, 2018 2GO texted that my passport is for delivery today but critical area.
APRIL 15, 2018 Picked up my passport instead at 2GO branch |

Timeline Comments: 5Congratulations what was the interview like in Manila ??? How long was the actual time at the last window? How many questions?
Thank you! If you are a member of Bryan Cox fb group I posted the questions there. Last window was faster than pre screening interview. I brough our daughter with me.
Pre screening questions were:
What's your name?
When is your birthday?
Who is your petitioner?
How did you meet? Do you have pictures together?
Where does he live?
What is his job?
Did he live in other states aside from the one you mentioned?
How long have you been married?
How many times have you been married?
How many kids do you have?
Does she have CRBA?
Proceed to Finger Scanning
The Interview with American Consul who speaks good Tagalog to the prior applicant
What is your name?
who is petitionng you?
How long have you been married? How many kids do you have
Whats your husbands job?
She asked this twice then apologized.
Scanned my advisory on marriage as i didn't submitted it at NVC
Hands me the two pieces of paper if ever i experience violence in the States and wished me luck on my journey! Yay!
Sounds simple enough enough did you notice ant denials or mostly everyone got approved?
Did you receive your visa already?
If so what date?
Trying to see how long it has taken folks to receive their packet from their interview/approval date as of late. Thanks. :)
*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
