| Embassy Review : |
Getting the K1 visa in Prague was no problem. I spoke to the woman on email a few times, and she managed to get me an appointment in just under a week. Its very hard to get hold of someone on the phone, but if you email they always answer, usually a day later.
On the day of the "interview", they just checked my bag, sent me upstairs and I was the only person there. All they did was ask me for my papers, had a look through and told me to come back the next day for my passport. They didn't ask me a single question on how Kyle and I met, how long we knew each other etc. The service was excellent and the staff very helpful and friendly.
This morning I went back and collected my passport. They gave me the brown envelope to hand in at POE, wished me a happy wedding and that was it. |

*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.
