Asked to proceed to the CBP room(?) where others were also waiting. Waited 10 mins to be called and told 'You have to get married in 90 days. That's it. Congratulations!' and then I was on my way. |

Embassy Review : |
My appointment was at 8:15, I was there at 8:05, was told to get a number and arrange my documents according to instructions. I was called for document verification before I even got the chance to take my documents out I was called for an interview and biometrics about 10mins later.
The questions asked were:
--Tell me about you and your fiance, how did you meet?
-- What does he do for a living?
-- Tell me about your wedding plans?
I think answered more than what she needed and she just kept nodding and smiling. After the interview I was told my visa is approved and I was out of there by 8:35. It was a pretty quick and smooth process.

*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
