Expected to face long lines and a long wait, but we were instead greeted by a near empty immigration hall. We were quickly taken out of line and brought to a desk where an immigration officer asked us some basic questions and collected the consulate package. We walked to a different room and waited for less than 15 minutes after checking in. The immigration officers asked several straightforward questions, and seemed satisfied when we told them about our plans to marry in 4 weeks. My fiance and I were together the entire time, which I had not expected. Overall, it was a quick process and the immigration officers were courteous and professional. |

Consulate Review: Taipei, Taiwan

| Embassy Review : |
I was not allowed into the building with my fiance during his interview. His interview was scheduled for 1:50, and he was finished after approximately 1 hour and 40 minutes. The interview consisted of three different stages. The final stage was an interview with an American adjudicator. My fiance said that the staff he met with were professional and polite. The interviewer seemed pleased that our documents were well-organized according to their instructions. They did inquire about our co-sponsor's most recent tax transcript, which we did not have because the I-134 directions do not explicitly request it. Otherwise, the questions were straight-forward and as expected. We provided additional evidence to document our relationship, but the consulate did not collect these documents. We were disappointed that the interviewer did not tell us if the visa was approved or not at the end of the interview; I'd heard that many people receive an immediate decision. However, by the end of the week, his K1 visa was approved and we were able to pick up his passport at a distribution center in Taipei. Overall, our experience with AIT has been positive. Communication with the office was never difficult, and his visa was processed efficiently. |

*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.
