The whole interview lasted about 30 min. They had everything we had submitted since the I-129F petition. Our file was assembled in the worng order by their processing office, but we had copies in the correct order for our own reference. The questions were simple, mostly verifying that our information was correct. The adjudicator looked through our wedding photos, and vacacion photos, and closely at our bank records and medical & dental insurance. Everything was good and she gave us the letter confirming my wife's legal permanent residend status. We should get the green card in about 2 weeks.

| Embassy Review : |
The interview was not to hard. My fiancee arrived before 8:00 am and was number 17 in line. The consulate officers were very blunt and not the most friendly people. My fiancee was required to speak English unlike what some previous reviews had led us to believe. The question were easy.
1. How did you get to know each other?
2. How much can he speak Japanese?
3. When did you meet his parents?
4. When did he meet your parents?
5. When will you get married?
6. What is your job?
The whole thing was over by 10:30 am with no real problems. We just wish the officers were a little more friendly. |

*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.
