| Comments : |
The IO I ended up with, after one bitched at me for not having a customs form and then the second (who was really nice) having no idea what to do with the K-1 visa, was extremely rude. He was the worst IO I have ever encountered on all my trips to the States. I'm glad that's over with. |

| Embassy Review : |
My appointment was for 8 am and I arrived at the embassy at about 7.15 am, not expecting to be seen until noon or something. I submitted evidence of relationship and both passports (old and current) at Window 5 and sat down to wait. I was called to Window 6 at about 8.30 am or so, which is really, really good for the American embassy! Was asked about how we met, previous visits, and a bunch of simple things. Didn't have my birth certificate (but had my ID and house registration) and was asked to get it and give it in the next day at 1 pm. Surprisingly quick, very easy questions if you aren't lying about anything, no hassle. |

*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.
