Consulate Review: Guangzhou, China Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : July 18, 2009 Embassy Review : Result Pink The questions were simple: How did you meet? What was the date that you first met? Why do you love him? Do you have proof of your relationship? Yes, I have photos. Can I see them? How can you love a man so much taller? (I think the VO was just joking with my fiancee at this point.) The interview went well. It was a woman VO. She put my fiancee at ease and they had an enjoyable conversation. I had the same woman at the ACH, and she remembered that. I give the VO high marks. The consulate itself is a poor excuse for a consulate. 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
