Consulate Review: Guangzhou, China Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : June 25, 2009 Embassy Review : On June 1, 2009 I attended both American Citizen Hour(ACH) and American Citizen Services(ACS)in order to get a couple of questions about our case answered and also to have an updated Evolution of Relationship letter notorized. In each case I encountered VOs who were both courteous and professional which left a good impression on me. The next day my fiancee had her visa interview in which she was asked 6 questions and to show photos of us together. She also reported that the VO who conducted her interview was very courteous and professional to her the entire time. All in all we both had a favorable experience with the Consulate. Rating : Good

*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
