It was very uneventful. We pulled up to the Huntington/Sumas WA border in Abbotsford BC. We got sent inside. The guy called us up took the envelope and checked everything out, looked at my inventory list, took finger prints, and told us to have a seat. 20 minutes later he called us up gave my my passport and and said congrats. They didn't even look through my stuff. I had a huge trailer and SUV PACKED full of stuff including a queen size mattress and a dining table. I guess my inventory list was enough. It was very easy and everyone was nice. |

Everyone was really nice and helpful. We had not filled out a form properly so they let us use a computer in the office to do it again. The actual interview took about 7-8 minutes tops and the lady was super nice. She asked to see evidence of the engagement I had a ton of stuff but she only looked at some pictures and the receipt for the engagement ring, and said she didn't need anymore. Ben came to the interview with me so she asked him to be a part of it too. It went great. |

*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.
