After the receiving the transfer date it just took a couple of months to get all the important docs in the mail. No interview ever took place. |

We did get the annoying & "dreaded" RFE but after delivering a dictionary worth of paperwork everything was OK! |

| Embassy Review : |
With the exception of the 2.5 hour wait on a bench with no back support I would say it was overall a pretty good experience. Interviewers were friendly...most of the US Embassy experiences I've heard from family members and Peruvian friends have been negative so I wanted us to be ready. I attended the interview with my fiancee and brought a 2-3 inch stack of paperwork with me (financial docs, proof of our relationship since the initial filing - i.e. photos, phone records, e-mails, chat history, letters...)...even though I had front-loaded the initial petition with tons of relationship & financial evidence I wanted to have more proof. just in case.
First they call you up to pay $350 and turn in TWO copies of DS-156 AND DS-156K...I thought we only needed a duplicate of one of those but we thankfully had another in my backpack. Then you play the waiting game until the beneficiary's name is called for what seems like forever but must have been 30-45 minutes. They interviewed her alone...she brought the huge stack of paperwork with her, which was a spectacle because it was impossible to fit anything more than a half inch thick under the window slot. They didn't even look at at 95% of it..just the 1-134, letter from employer & bank, and our pictures plus all of her police records, medical exam results, passport, etc. I eavesdropped and they asked the usual questions like how/when/where did you meet, how do you stay in touch & how often/when does he come to visit. Within a couple minutes it was over, she sat back down and played the waiting game for another eternity. Then finally the second interview: it was with an american guy in his twenties (with a good spanish accent to boot). He spoke to her for a minute or two, repeating the same questions, made her swear an oath and then motioned for me to come join the interview. He asked me about my job title and my salary in english...I confirmed both in english and then responded in spanish once he asked about our relationship (to not be rude to my spanish speaking fiancee)...like since when have you been together, how did you meet, how do you stay in touch, when did you get engaged...once we showed photos of us together with our families (during pedida de mano) it pretty much sealed the deal. The only hiccup we ran into was that she forgot her birth certificate at home but thankfully he was pretty nice about it. We got the "dreaded" yellow paper but we turned in the birth certificate, passport & yellow slip to DHL the very same day and got the visa exactly 1 week later. |

*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.
