Consulate Review: Kuwait Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa Event Description Review Date : August 26, 2009 Embassy Review : We arrived at the embassy around 12, took our numbered badges, and waited for about an hour before being allowed into the embassy. We waited about another 30 minutes before being called to submit our documents. There were only 4 people waiting for immigration visas and no one waiting for tourist visas. However, everyone waited about 1.5 hours before they started doing interviews. The CO was extremely nice and easy to talk to. My wife was sworn in, fingerprinted, and asked to sign the DS-230 part 2. She then commented that she was just transferred from Uzbekistan to Kuwait. We talked informally about Uzbekistan and we showed pictures from our wedding. The CO only asked my wife 2 questions: How did we meet? and When will you travel to the US? Then she said her visa is approve and we'll receive everything in about 1-2 weeks. Very easy and happy for this to be done. Rating : Very Good

*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
