| Embassy Review : |
I had my interview on the 21st of September at 8:30 am.
I arrived around 30 minutes earlier. I was given a number (5) at entry. Once i got through all the checkpoints, i was lead to a room where i was a given a paper with instructions on how to organize all the documents in a certain order. Then i sat and waited there for about 45 minutes before my number came up. I was asked to remove my mask for identification, then had my biometrics taken. I was then asked for my civil documents and i was asked a few questions like what’s my husband’s name and where does he work/live. He then asked me about my tattoos and what they mean. Then I went back to my seat and waited roughly 10 minutes before i was asked into the interview room. The person who interviewed me was a lovely lady. She asked me:
If my husband has siblings + their names
How and where my husband and I met
Where do we plan on living
Why did we decide to move now
If and Where I currently work
Then she said congratulations you’re approved!
The interview took 5 minutes.
From start to finish everybody at the consulate was very helpful, nice and mindful of how nervous some of us might have been. |

Hi MiriaamCH, thanks for sharing your experience, and congratulations as well.
My wife's interview is coming up on the 12th of April and her visa category is IR1, i'm wondering about the documents submitted to NVC just to make sure we got everything right, so please if you don't mind, can you give me an idea of the documents uploaded prior to the interview and what you brought to the interview as well.
Thank you
*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
