Consulate Review: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Review Topic: K3 Visa Event Description Review Date : July 7, 2007 Embassy Review : Approved....... Almost to easy....... Took about 5 mins. for K-3 visa interveiw. I was allowed to attend interveiw with wife and daughter. Went to the interview room told the man I was the USA Spouse and if he cared if I came in for interview. He looked up and said by all means come in. Asked basic questions like how we met, how long we knew each other. When and where we married and what I did for a living. He asked me as many questions as he asked my wife and daughter. My wife had a bundle of supporting information like photos,emails etc. They did'nt even ask to see. They are now home with me and every thing went fine at the poe in Chicago as well. Only problem we had was missing our connecting flight at Chicago. The security check was very slow in Sao Paulo was in line 2 1/2 hours. So if flying out of there allow sufficent time to make connecting flights. We missed our flight by 10 mins. So don't sweat the interveiw he was very decent and polite. 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.
