Timeline Comments: 4 Aarav on 2023-11-06 said: Did you applied for interview appointment by yourself or they give you the interview date ?
Hi Aarav, for the IR1/CR1 category, NVC provides the interview date and time via email. From my knowledge, the K1 visa category allows you to choose your own date/time for the interview. Hope this helps.

I'm planning to marry my girlfriend in July next year she is a American citizen, can you tell how long it takes to get me in USA?
*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
