Consulate Review: Ghana Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : February 10, 2010 Embassy Review : So my fiance's original interview date was feb 1st but after 2hrs of waiting with about 100 others they were told due to one of the interviewing officers calling in sick they had to reschedule. Now i'm thinking maybe a week or so but NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! a whole 7weeks. Needless to say we are now bumped to March 18th. Rating : Very Poor

Timeline Comments: None yet, be the first!



*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
