| Embassy Review : |
My fiancee had her interview on Nov 26th. The process went relatively quickly. Entered the building about 7:30, finger printed soon after, submitted her forms, then interviewed at 9:30.
The VO asked only 5 simple questions, took a quick look at our photo album, then gave her the pink paper.
I attribute the quick interview several factors:
1) Neither of us has been previously married
2) No children
3) Our income is well above poverty level
4) I made 4 visits to see my fiancee

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.
** Not all cases are transfered
