| Embassy Review : |
My husband just got back today from his interview in Naples. All went really smoothly and easily. On the day of the medical he was the second in line, but had to wait for everyone to arrive to complete all the steps (blood test, x-ray, vaccinations, doctor visit). There were 60 people scheduled that day, but only 15 showed up because of the "vulcano ash" causing problems with transport in/out of Italy. They were all finished by 10:30am and then they were sent to the embassy for fingerprinting and some questions. They shared cabs to the embassy (book your cab at the cashier in the medical office to be assured a "fair" fee), cost was 7euro. They were finished in the embassy by noon.
The next day my husbands visa appoinment was for 10am. He showed up on time, but they complained that he should have come earlier. Funny thing was, in the end, he was in and out of the embassy in 20 minutes. APPROVED. There were several people that were not approved that day because they had forms that were filled out incorrectly or were missing documentation with their I-864. It was a very quick process, they didn't ask for any proof of our relationship or our childrens' birth certificates. They only asked why my husband was returning to the US. He picked up his visa and brown envelope at the Mail Boxes Etc. at 5pm.
Overall, an easy trip. He took the bus to Naples and then used public transportation to get around. He said there were tons of police and that he felt really safe there. |

*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.
