Make sure you have enough time between connections....immigration took close to 75 minutes between the immigration line, and K1 Process procedure...but otherwise, it was easy..... |

Embassy Review : |
Our interview went so well...
We stayed at the Formula 1 hotel which is a 15 minute walk to the consulate. If you take 1 taxi, it costs R$7.00 We arrived at 6.30 am to wait in line. There are 2 lines there, 1 for Non Immigrant visa´s and 1 for Immigrant visa´s which is where we needed to be. As time passed more people came which was good because we were in contact with them for quite some time on another site so made waiting less stressful.
Once it was time, one guard came and took the names of who was there, and their place in line. We went in and passed through security and then proceeded to the second floor where 1 employee checked our name again and gave 1 paper of the correct order of the papers.
People:Be careful of the picture, the ears need to show !! we were told to go take new pictures.
Once completed he double checks for errors and told to go to 1 window to hand over the forms. There they checked the documents for a final time, and asked if I was there too and advised that I can participate.
after the window, she was given 1 number and then the wait started. We waited a good 30 minutes
Once our number was called we went to room #3. There we sat in front of 1 glass window together and spoke with 1 officer. She was really nice to speak with made the interview really relaxing. (which I needed, I was a nervous wreck)
While my fiancee was giving digital finger prints, the officer started to ask me questions to start the interview. She only asked basic questions, like when we met, where we went while I visited and about my work.
When she asked my fiancee questions she asked only where she lived, for how long, how we communicate, (MSN Chat,and phone) and basic question about my family. She did not ask to see any doucuments I brought with me like chats, ´phone bills, pictures....
That was it....she then said our visa was APPROVED....the interview took all of 10 minutes. |

Timeline Comments: None yet, be the first!
*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.
