Our USCIS Office is actually the Royal Palm Beach location. It was opened up recently to relieve the WPB locale.

Embassy Review : |
The only con was that its was FREEZING in that waiting room and we were wearing snow jackets.
Pros: they were very organied, detailed and respectful. I was pleased that his interviewer was an American.

POE Review: Miami

Embassy Review : |
All went well. We waited for my fiance for 2.5 hours after his plane arrived. He told me that the visa people asked him no questions, they just stamped his passport. He was surprised to be most "interrogated" (she just was curious, casual questions about our relationship - like making chit-chat) by the woman in the Agricultural customs! LOL
He said he waited maybe an hour to see the Visa people. What took the most time was waiting in line at passport control before they told him where to go for his Visa. At Agricultural customs, he said that they just xray his suitcase and did not even open it. Thumbs up in his case!!! And I am happy because I know that Miami can be a pain in the arse. I hate driving down there for anything. |

*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.
