| Embassy Review : |
So today was the big day of the interview FINALLY...
My appointment was scheduled for 8.15 in the morning, but i was already there at about 7.15 and there were about 15 people in front of me.
At around 7.45 they started to let us in and before u go through the security u gotta show ur appointment letter and ur passport and then u will be given a number...
So as i was done going through the security i came into the embassy and my number has already been called to window 23...
Didnt even have time to sit down and wait 
So the lady at the window asked for my passport, my picture and the receipt for the paid visa fee and handed me the envelope, where i had to put my address and the
4,25 € postage stamps on it.Then she gave me a paper what told me how i have to prepare my other documents ( birth certificate, police certificate and evidence of financial support )...So after waiting about 10 minutes i was called to the next window and gave them my other documents and then i was explained that i have 180 days after the visa was issued to enter the us and then i have 90 days to get married and then do AOS and that i`m not allowed to open the sealed envelope...etc
then i went back and waited maybe for another 30 minutes and then i was called to the next window where i had my actual interview..
First i had to sign the document in front of the consular to verify that all the informations on the paper are the truth. Then he took my fingerprints and asked me a few questions:
How did u meet ur fiance?
What did he do in austria?
For how long was he over there?
Have u ever been to the US?
How often?
How long?
What does ur fiance work?
explain it...
Does he have any children?
How old is his son?
Does he live with him?
Does ur fiance live alone?
Do u intend to work in the US?
(I said yes but im going to college first)
so he asked who will pay for it?
I think that was all...
So after that he then just told me that they will send me the visa as soon as they get the test results from the medical-
So all in one it just took me a bit more than a hour, i was pretty happy bout that since i still had to go to the medical after the interview and they only take patients ( visa applicants) till 11.00 am.
So i still had more than enough time.
Oh and i didnt have to show any pictures of us or any proofs that we still have an ongoing relationship, NOTHIN...But its still better to be overprepared in case they will ask for it.. |

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.
