Precise date Package left NVC unknown.
No Second Interview.
69 days from receipt of Packet 3 to faxing off Packet 3 to the Vancouver Consulate. It probably could have been done in 2 weeks if we'd hurried.

Crossed by car 1500 miles from Salt Lake City. CBP Officer asked why my fiance wasn't with me. I answered (puzzledly) "Because she's in Salt Lake City...?". He snapped "What does that mean to me!?". Took about an hour and a half for him to go through the whole file. |

*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.
