Consulate Review: Bogota, Colombia Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : March 16, 2010 Embassy Review : we left the apartment at 6am and took maybe 5min to get there. they told us to get in line 3 while we waited to go through security to enter embassy. they started letting us in at 6:30 and told us to go to window 40. around 7am a lady came over to our group of people and gave us a folder to organize all the papers in. a little while later they started calling people to window 30 and 31 to turn in papers. they did not call us and we was wondering how long it was going to be. finally they call 5 of us to window 40 and they told us to follow them to window 4 where the interview was. we made a couple of friends there while we waited and they turned their paper work into windows 30 and 31. it was not very cold to me there but other people said it was i guess it just depends where you are from. finally they call us to window 4 and we turned in our papers. we are thinking that they have us doing something different maybe because we did not pass medical. so we asked one of the 5 people that came with us to window 4 if they had all papers and they say yes. they started finger printing everyone that went through window 30 and 31 so we are very concerned because we did not do samething as others and they have not called any of us to finger printing. at this point we think they might just tell us to go home until we get medical. its around lunch time and the place is getting thined out and we are wondering if and when we will get interview. a little later they call everyone that did not have an interview yet to stand in line and they took our names and told us to sit down again. finally 30 min later they call us for interview. i stood next to sandra as they interviewed her and they asked her a few questions and they wanted to talk to me. the only thing he said was everything looked good and visa is approved as long as she gets her medical. now we are waiting for this and it will be roughly 45 days doctor said. this is a long story you can ask me if you want to know. once we have an approval on medical then we turn in to embassy and pay for visa Rating : 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.
