Consulate Review: Islamabad, Pakistan
Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa
Event Description
Review Date : September 6, 2022
Embassy Review : My wife had her interview on August 31, 2022 scheduled at 8:00 AM at the US Embassy in Islamabad, Pakistan.

My wife's interview lasted about 10 minutes all-in-all with Visa Officer (VO). No formal physical evidence paperwork was asked for (we came with all relevant documents).

The first 5 minutes was the visa officer checking the online submissions of our paperwork and then came these VO general questions:

- How did you meet your husband?

- Was it a love marriage or arranged marriage?

- Are you guys cousins and related?

- What did your husband study?

- What did you study?

- What does he do?

- What do you do?

- Are you planning to work in the US? What do you plan to do?

- Can I see pictures of you guys?


*Briefly looks through small photo album my wife bought*


-I see you guys have traveled outside Pakistan (looking at pictures), where did you go? (My wife answered where we went for our Honeymoon etc).


VO: Thanks, your visa has been approved and you will receive it within two weeks!


Note: My wife arrived 1.5 hours early on the day of her interview and was done with her interview under half an hour since she was one of the first in line (She was finished by 8:30 AM)

I have a similar case to yours. I’m from Illinois and married my husband who is from Pakistan in February 2020. We’ve been dq since February 2021. Any other couples you know who filed before you and got an interview? I’m just trying to get some sort of timeline when he’ll get his interview

After your documents are accepted and approved by NVC … how long it took to schedule your interview?
Tariq&Farzeen on 2022-07-01 said:
1.5 years. We were Documentarily Qualified by NVC Feb 23, 2021. We got our Interview Letter June 16, 2022. We have our Interview Scheduled for August 31, 2022.
blank avatar Bigmasoud on 2022-07-03 said:
Hi. May I ask why did the interview took so long? I mean I just got approved a few days ago, how long do you think I should wait for my interview?
Tariq&Farzeen on 2022-08-31 said:
Hi Bigmasoud, The interview for the US Embassy in Pakistan have been elongated because of fall of Afghanistan. I believe you are Persian, so I imagine that process and longevity would be substanially different in Iran unless you're applying from Pakistan.
blank avatar AMK2021 on 2022-09-08 said:
Hi! I had a quick question - when/how long did it take to say "in transit" and does in transit mean that you get the interview letter already or you'll be getting it soon?
Tariq&Farzeen on 2022-09-08 said:
Hi AMK2021, I am not exactly what sure what you mean by "in transit", I never saw that written on any official document we received. Make sure you have your email addresses registered to your Case Number and Invoice ID on ceac.state.gov, and as soon as your interview has been scheduled, you will get an email direct from NVC which will let tell you the date of your interview. We received our "Interview Letter" via E-Mail from NVC on June 16, 2022 (About 2.5 months before our actual interview).

*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.
