Blue Slip on the interview day Embassy requested
3-year "CERTIFIED COPIES" tax returns from my co-sponsor. Takes 60-days to receive from the IRS in USA.... absolutely ridiculous!!! (Update) IRS screwed-up and it took 93-days to get these copies... UNFREAKEN BELIEVABLE !!!
4/19/2010 Embassy sends call in package to old address... Now we have to wait to until package arrives at her new home. Embassy requested two additional items... They want another police report from her (home town which she has not lived in for four years) and another physical... Finally, visa received on 7/14/10 |

| Embassy Review : |
Got a BLUE SLIP.... which is a 221(g) Lacking documents/Further Processing. This was surprising because we were well prepared. Additional forms they asked for were three year tax returns from me and three year "CERTIFIED" tax returns from my co-sponsor (I was told I only needed to submit our 2008 taxes which I did, also CERTIFIED COPIES TAKE 60 days to get from the IRS in the USA.)
We had written a letter before the interview stating that she only joined CCP for school and never participated in any other actions etc.... they kept the letter. But they requested additional information about CCP.
I had copied our Video Chat History from SKYPE 147 pages, 4 rows each page (1 hour or more every night.) We only missed about 19 days in 8 months and that was due to traveling. I also, lived in China from August 2008 until March 2009 and I had plane tickets, huge picture book, and receipts. But they still ask for more correspondence proof.
I think it's a crap-shoot this year China has processed 97 (K1 visa) and of those 42 are pending (almost a 50/50 chance you get that visa). My advice is bring every thing and the kitchen sink.... Shit bring the whole house. Read as much of this web-page and others for information. I thought, I covered it all, even paid a lawyer USAVISANOW to double check our information and it was worthless in the end.
We waited 216 days for our interview and then at the interview they tell us we need forms that take 60 days to receive... it's chui niu pi !!!

*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.
