Comments : This is my quick feedback during my interview.

I arrived at 6:45 am, good thing my house is 10 mins away from the US embassy.

The security guard gave instructions and reminders such as: no bag is allowed inside only cellphone and small wallet. paper bag is accepted (where I put my documents) NOTE: security outside the USEM building will not allow to put the applicants bag.

At 8am we fell in line and a lady checked our passport and appointment letter.

I went inside and another security checked was done like scanning and putting our things for xray. It is where you can place your cellphone and keys. Then I went to another building.

At the next building, another security checked and you I was given and 2 pcs queing num and I was num 14. I saw lots of people arrived already. A lady guided me to where I should sit. Inside the applicant for Immigrant visa and non-immigrant visa sat in different area. I sit for almost 30 minutes as I am number 14. I waited too long and I noticed 3 windows were opened to do the checking of the requirements.

My number was called and ipresented all my documents except the proof of relationship

I sat again and waited for biometrics.

My biometrics was done then I sat again waiting for interview.

My turn arrived and I was called. The IO ask some basic info regarding me and my fiance. Then the IO checked her computer and ask me follow up questions base on what she saw. I answered all the question honestly. Then lastly she asked my proof of relationship and scanned all the pictures, chat logs and call logs.

The IO was done and said I will approve you and gave me the white paper. She added some information on what to do.

I received my passport with visa after 2 days.

Hey guys, I'm a petitioner from US. My fiance is in Dubai. May I ask if your approvals were updated on USCIS website before you received the approval letter in hand? My NOA date is August 3. I keep checking the new USCIS website everyday but it still says case received. I'm getting anxious 🙁 should I call them ?

Are we supposed to do anything between NOA2 and packet 3 other than collecting the required docs for interview?

No. I made the mistake of scheduling an interview without packet 3. Now I have packet 3 and can not schedule waiting for them to clear the visa account

@Anna&eiad.. Is packet 3 sent to fiance or petitioner? By email or snail mail? How long did it take to get packet 3 after consulate received your Petition? Mine is in transit to embassy.

*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
