POE Review: Detroit Event Description Entry Date : 2009-05-28 Embassy Review : I had made sure that I had plenty of time to go through POE in Detroit. I had a two and a half hour layover and I was hoping that would be enough! I actually used 20 minutes of it on immigration. I waited in line for around 15 minutes and the other five minutes were for processing. The officer was professional, but pleasant. After a browse through my paperwork, he asked me where I was going to be living and when I was getting married. He checked my fingerprints and did the retinal scan and told me I was good to go and also "Welcome to America". To think I had actually lost sleep worrying over the whole process ..... Harassment Level : Low

*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
