My appointment was at 7:30 a.m., and I got out at 10:55 a.m. Initial pre-screening/pre-interview and fingerprinting went quickly. The longest wait was for the interview itself, because there was no longer a queue for that--you had to wait for your name to be called by the consul to whom your case was assigned. My interview itself was fairly quick, which took me by surprise, actually, like more or less 5 minutes. Qs asked: Have you ever committed a criminal act/been convicted of a criminal act? Have you ever been married before? Has your fiancé ever been married before? Do you have kids together? Is your fiancé of Filipino descent? She asked if I had registered my delivery address for the LBC delivery service, then handed me pamphlets on domestic violence, instructing me to read them very carefully. Then she said, "All right, your visa's approved. Just wait for your passport to be mailed back to you. Have a good day!" 
Just a quick note about the Filipino staff: I wish they'd tone down on their snippy/snarky attitude. You are serving your fellow Filipinos. They are about to embark on a new chapter in their lives. A lot of them are very nervous about their interviews. Some of them even come from faraway provinces, probably with no sleep, have not eaten breakfast, and are extremely stressed about their interviews. So please exercise a little more patience and compassion if they can't give you the info you need from them right away. Â |

*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.
