| Embassy Review : |
Ok we started at 630am they gave us the Green Sticker and Gold for my Fiancée line 3 then after we got thru security we got to the Patio or Waiting area which is outside so my suggestion is to dress warm! we got in line then a lady went around and help everyone get their application in the right order if you submitted paper to USCIS then you don’t have to show it again, but is a good idea to bring the extra copies, also something that proofed to be a life saving is a couple of copies of birth certificates, we submitted one and they couldn’t find the certificate so they requested another one thankfully we had 3 more. We got called shortly, within one hour! We reported to window 30, the lady checked the documents then she told us to go to the next window which is located in the other side of the patio, windows 2-5 this is when you get interviewed we got to the window and there is the consul or officer that approves the visas. The officer talked very little to my fiancée, he wanted to speak to me.... so we talked for a while about my job which happen to have something in common with him since his brother is in the military, we talked about sea stories and the whole nine yards, we sounded like too old friends, that put me at ease, he asked me about our daughter, he then told me he couldn’t approved my daughters visa since by law she is a U.S Citizen, I did not know this then I started asking him what needs to be done, he gave me a pass for the U.S Citizen services in the other side of the embassy, I can tell you that he was just extra nice very helpful very relax, so he then said your Fiancée and Stepson Visas are approved with no questions asked he returned our pictures from the USCIS package I submitted before, then he checked several documents like divorce decrees birth certificates and medical envelopes then he even told me if I had any problems to let the other section of the embassy call him. Taking extra information is very helpful but making the trip proofed to be priceless! I took my U.S Passport which helped me get my daughters passport, I also had extra money in case we need it the extra cash, which we did…I didn’t have the IRS returns so we called and got the summary from the IRS which is also fine, the letters from my employer was also a great thing, I suggest you get the letter with the following information your title, years of employment and salary, if possible. My fiancée was told to have her divorce decree apostle, but that is not required make sure you get the Colombian Notary to make every document official, Colombians need to have like a million seals in order for the document to be official! So be in the lookout for that. If you have a child with your Fiancee please don’t pay for any of the Colombian passports or any of the medical exams I was misinformed and I wasted a lot of money anyways whats done is done. We got approved!! My daughter U.S Passport should arrive about the same time with the other the visas. I give the embassy an excellent because it was fast easy and their services superb!
Good Luck!, Patience and keeping with the information is key to a successful process, call, ask, get involved.

*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.
