| Embassy Review : |
I got there at 6:45 and there were 5 girls waiting in line with their Americans fiancés. At 7:15 other 4 girls got in line and I felt awkward... 9 girls and I was the only guy.
We went to the second floor and a woman made the first check on my documents... They made me wait at a room with the others, and I started to imagine if they keep an eye on that room...
They call me to a privet room, and I gave all my documents to a guy. He asked me if it was me who fill in all the forms... I said no, "it was my layer!"... "Have you double checked all the information?"... Yes sir, 5 times only in the last hour!"... He laughed, gave me a few documents back, than retuned to the other room...
I had to wait for all the girls to do the same thing... Another hour has passed when the first password was called to the Consul's room. The funny part is that Americans are not allowed in that room, only the Brazilians.
The girl stayed there for about 45 minutes... She leeft and my number came out on the screen. I got in the Consul's office, and he nicely asked me to sit down. He was a black man with about 32 years old. An older skinny woman was sitting behind him, but she never looked at me, and stayed the whole time taking notes... He spoke something to her, but the microphone was turned off... Finally he said good morning and made me swear that I would only speak the truth.
The whole interview was in Portuguese and felt like he was trying to see if I was really me... Almost all the questions were about me. Where I studied, where I lived, where I worked... Questions about my family and older visas.
I tried to answer everything objectively and with conviction. The only question that he made about my fiancé was "how you met you her". I told him the story... he laughed and said "Ok Mr. Gomes, your visa is approved"...
I'm sure he saw the big file that I brought with me, full of evidences... just to make sure, I asked him ... "do you want to see any photo?" He said "it is not necessary, I believe in you... good luck."
It took me less than 10 minutes... I paid the fee for mailing the passport and it should be at home mostly in 10 days... |

*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.
