Consulate Review: Ghana Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : February 19, 2010 Embassy Review : To deal with the U.S embassy in Ghana you have to have a lot of patience. My fiancee made a lot of trips to the embassy becasue they kept asking for rediculous things. If u share address with opposite sex make sure u notify ur fiancee who that person is. Because of this stupid address issue it took 4 months after his first interview to finally get his visa.In the end we had to pay for him to get his medicals done again because they told us the one he did had expired, when it was their fault that they delayed by giving him a long appt date just to bring a letter to them. All I can say is don't have high expectations when ur fiancee goes to his/her interview. Relax and just hope for the best.They can really get on ur very last nerve. Rating : Very Poor

*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
