Consulate Review: Korea

| Embassy Review : |
We are a same-sex couple so we were a little nervous about facing discrimination but this was not the case. My fiance (Korean) said the staff were very kind and helpful. The consular officer began the interview in Korean but switched to English as my fiance was answering in English. Questions asked included questions about my name, the nature of our relationship with each other (engaged), what I, the American, was doing in Korea when I lived there, and how long I had been in my current job here in the US.
After my fiance answered those all correctly, the officer let him know he had all the documentation he needed and so the visa was approved. He explained to my fiance that he needs to enter the US and marry me within 90 days and warned him not to get married outside of the US and then attempt to use the visa as it would become invalid.
Great experience overall dealing with the US embassy in Seoul. No inappropriate, strange, or overly difficult questions. |

*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.
