Embassy Review : |
We all arrived in Juarez on Sunday 8/16/09. Monday AM Marcela and two sons went to medical exam. All went well here, except for nobody directs you well when you arrive. When you arrive for your medical exam, go directly to the clinic. Then @ 2pm returned for results for Marcela and 20yo son, the 10yo had to wait until Thursday. Tuesday AM all three of them tried something a little non traditional. They actually had their interview and that went extremely well. In fact, Marcela was told she would have her visas delivered to her in her hand when Diego's results were delivered. So, Wed we did nothing. Thursday @11am we returned for 10yo results of TB test. They read it but they wouldn't release results until 2pm. By then the consulate was closing but she got to speak with someone who said they would call for the results. Friday, nothing came. Saturday, still nothing. Monday AM we went to the consulate to find out that the results were never delivered. We went to get them and hand them to the person at the window. Tuesday AM @ 11am we noted on DHL website the visas were ready. We boarded a bus @2pm and arrived back in Irapuato the next day @11am. My advice. Do not listen to what they tell you that they will do outside of the norm. Don't try to do anything outside of the norm. Other than that, we are very happy. |

Embassy Review : |
My fiancee, two children and I arrived in Dallas with a close connection to make for SFO. We arrived in the immigrant line where we were greeted by a very kind lady who reviewed our documents briefly and asked us to form a line behind a particular window. We approached the window and the officer was also very kind and moved quickly. She asked when we met, when we were getting married and said good luck. We were then directed to the end of the hall where another officer would review all the paperwork and send us to our connection. This gentleman was super nice and even apologized for the wait which was no more than 5 minutes. He asked us a few questions and told us welcome to the USA and suggested we get a move on to make our connection. It was very uneventful. |

*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.
