Comments : This final stage in the process was (for me) the hardest as I became quite paranoid about studying for my Naturalization test. but beyond that. It was the fastest. Luckily living in a lower population state helped tons. Thank you to VJ all these years for giving the help and guidance through such muddy and uncharted waters.

POE Review: Dublin
Event Description
Entry Date : 2009-10-03
Embassy Review : Had planned for a long time to fly via Dublin, (I'm a guinness drinker) and did not want to miss a final true pint of the black stuff on irish soil before starting my new life.

Any way. I got into the queue for going through imigration, smiled and handed the envelope to a blonde haired lady who opened it, checked it's contents and then asked me "When did I get married" I of course replied with "I'm Not but hope to be in a couple of weeks time". She then asked me to follow her. Looking behind me at the rest of the people in line and noticed a few eyebrows went up. ;o)

Got asked to stand outside an office door for about 30 seconds and the blonde haired lady told me to wait to be called and then returned to her station. A plesant gentleman asked me into the office which was a similar affair to the london embassy but with one cubicle with a stand up "bank teller" type desk.

The guy jokingly said that this was my final chance to turn around and he could put the paperwork through the shredder to which I laughed and said " not in a million years " he laughed and said he was only joking. He gave some advice about how the AOS process works and to get it submitted as soon as possible, And also suggested that I apply for a waiver if I need to leave the country due to family emergency etc, which I thought was a nice touch.

two minutes later the visa / passport was stamped and handed back to me. congratulated me and welcomed me to the united states



Zero Hastle, was done and dusted in maximum 10 minutes tops.

Harassment Level : Low

*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
