Consulate Review: Bulgaria Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa Event Description Review Date : January 24, 2011 Embassy Review : My interview was scheduled for 1:30 pm. I arrived at the embassy around 1 pm and waited until 1:25 pm and went through Security. After getting into the building, I sat down and waited to be called so I can submit all the required additional documents- bring "Svidetelstvo za semeino polojenie"! The person who I spoke to at first was a super nice Bulgarian lady. She checked all the documents, while in the meanwhile asked basic questions about my husband and our relationship in general. She asked if I had brought any photos. I had photos from different trips around US and Europe. After she had everything she needed, she asked me to fill out the DHL shipping list and sit back down and wait for the interview. After maybe 30 mins I got called by the consular, got my finger prints taken and was asked questions again. That took around 10 minutes and she finally said that everything looked good and after my finger-prints cleared I would receive my documents in 2 or 3 days. And I was out the door trying to take back my cell phone so I can call my husband and tell him the good news Rating : Very Good

*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
