| Embassy Review : |
Arrived at the embassy at 7 30 am. Big queue but moved fairly quickly. Required to show appointment letter and passport. Then into security. Do not bring mobile phone, they won't let you in.
Approached reception and gave letter and receipt of MRV fee and was given a number. You are then sent to the waiting area. After 10 mins my number was called. The first IO was an Eastern European man. Very friendly and efficient. Asked for receipt, letter, I 864, 3 passport photos and passport. He than asked a few questions about immigration history. He handed back my chest xray cd, asked how we met and then sent me to wait for next interview.
After 10 more mins , I was called up again. This was a very sweet lady. She asked to raise right hand and declare I was telling the truth. Asked where we met again, what my fiance did for a living and when we planned to get married. Then she said we were approved. Off I went to pay for delivery. Whole thing took 2 hours. |

*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
