| Embassy Review : |
My Experience:
I was dropping off my stuff ( phone etc ) at a kiosk at the corner from the Embassy.
I had to walk to a window where they gave me a number, as i been told i walked back and was able to go through security right away.
Do as they say, they will get a little angry at you for sudden moves 😅
When i was done i was walking outside and followed the green line to the back building.
It was a huge hall.
I went to the Woman by the desk and she gave me a letter with my first instructions.
I went to window 22 and had to drop off my passport, my passport picture and my printed delivery option confirmation page.
then i was seated again and waited for my number to be called.
As i was called, i walked up and the lady at the window gave me some new instructions and how my interview will take part.
i gave her all my civil documents and was seated again.
almost the last person being left, my number was called again and my final interview was held.
I had to take an oath and swear that all the information i'll give the consular officer are true.
after that she asked me 5 questions.
1. Did i get the Brochure from the First Window about violence and if i understand it ?
2. What do you wanna do/ work when you get there?
3. When did you get married?
4. when did you meet?
5. i forgot but it also was a very simple question with just a few words.
She said that she has everything she needs and asked me if i had any questions as well.
i asked how about the insurance, i'm only be able to get insurance with my SSN:
and she said:
they are not allowed to ask about this anymore because of the just recently filed lawsuit.
but she said the ssn and greencard might take a while to arrive in the US because of corona.
But i might be able to get insurance with my stamp/ passport greencard.
and after i got what i wanted i got told that she is able to grant it within 1-2 days and i will get my passport back in about a week.
The ladies i talked to were really nice and comforting.
I was able to speak german all the time even at the time of 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.
** Not all cases are transfered
