Local US CIS Office Review: Los Angeles CA Review Topic: cis_topic Event Description Review Date : December 26, 2008 Embassy Review : Our appointment was sometime in the early morning and we came in with all our documents. We waited about 1.5 hours, then were asked to come up to the counter where the adjudicator conducted the interview. He had a really thick file (mine) in front of him which included my petition from a previous marriage 8 years before which ended with abandonment (that's another story). I came prepared to answer questions in relation to that and interestingly, most of his questions were directed to that first petition. After answering every single questin, he started asking us about our present marriage and then reviewed the copies we brought with us. He made some copies for his file and then said that because they were shorthanded that morning and he wasn't exactly the one who made the decisions (I think it was right after labor day weekend or something), I would receive the decision within 30 days. He gave me an Infopass just in case I wouldn't hear from then within 30 days, and we went home. I received my approval letter five days later Harassment Level : 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
