It was scheduled for 7:45am, I got there at 7:00 sharp. Around 8:00 am they started doing the clearance with a couple of nice guards. I was then admitted to the second floor. I was asked to put all the documents in the order listed and I received a password number. I had to write the phone number and address of where I was staying in Rio (Hotel). The consular started calling people in no particular order. Around 10:20 I was called into a little room and was received by a very nice consular. We started the interview in Portuguese and finished in English. It was more of a chat than a interview. There was a long waiting line for the delivery company for the passport which was called TNT. I stayed at the Aeroport Othon Travel Hotel which was really close to the consulate and was clean but a little old. Thank GOD this is done!!! And good Luck to everyone!!! Processing Estimates/Stats : Your I-129f was approved in 108 days from your NOA1 date. Your interview took 169 days from your I-129F NOA1 date.

*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
