Consulate Review: South Africa Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : August 1, 2007 Embassy Review : Interview was a smooth process, took about 5mins. The interviewer was very friendly. Was asked to detail how I met my fiance, when we met up, and a few other basic questions which were very simple to answer. Thought our photos in our application were very cute. I did bring a ton of extra information for incase I was asked to supply originals or any extra evidence, but it wasn't needed. 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
