Embassy Review : |
Had my appointment at 8:15am, was let in at the gates at 7:55am.
Passed through security, they require you to empty your pockets and take off your belt, watch and jacket.
This all gets X-rayed.
(Car)keys are not permitted, so they kept them in a numbered box and gave you a piece of paper to retrieve if after the interview.
You go up to booth 5, which is labeled cashier, with your passport and DS-260 confirmation page, which then gets scanned.
You’re given a number and told to go to whichever booth is displayed on the screen, next to your number.
This employee looks at your civil documents, confirms a few things and takes your fingerprints.
You’re then told to sit back down and wait until your number gets called again.
This time you go to a US official that takes your interview.
They make you take an oath, check your documents again, then ask you a few questions.
In my case these were: What job my wife does, what job I do, how we met, when we first met in person and when we last met in person.
There was some small-talk in between the questions, it’s all a fairly relaxed experience.
I was also given a document to sign confirming my knowledge of it being a conditional permanent residency, and a little paper with information about if you’d fall victim to domestic abuse.
After this, the officer mentioned I was approved and should get an email with further information about the tracking of my passport.
You leave the building, retrieve your kept items, and head out into the street.

*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.
