Comments : |
We prepared very thoroughly for the interview. We had a separate, stand alone evidence for every statement entered on the official forms.
Every "t" was crossed and every "i" dotted.
The interview lasted about 6 minutes and was as easy as it could be. |

Relatively easy, but not a trivial interview. Asked a lot of questions about our previous marriage's and reasons for divorce. Also asked many questions in regards to our families acceptance of this marriage. |

*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.
