The correct date of NOA: 2018-06-01. The Timeline registers this date as an error, so I had to put in a different one. |

Consulate Review: Moscow, Russia

| Embassy Review : |
The interview took place at the US Embassy, Moscow. All my papers were in order, so submitting paperwork was quick and easy. The interview itself took 15 minutes at the most and was easy and fun, I wasn't even nervous. But there was a rather long queue, so, between submitting the paperwork and the interview itself, I had to wait for some time.
The consul who was interviewing me was an absolutely charming gentleman. He was smiling at me kindly the whole time and was extremely friendly and not intimidating at all. At first he addressed me in Russian, but after the formalities (oath, fingerprints, etc.) were over, he switched to English. He asked very few questions (about my English, about wedding date, about how I met my fiance). Then he said, "Congratulations, your visa is approved," and that was it. He didn't even look at the evidence of our relationship that I had with me, because my fiance had sent tons of it when he had submitted our I-129F petition.
Overall, apart from waiting and going through endess levels of security, it was a rather pleasant experience.
Advice: make sure your hands are nice and warm (and dry) before the interview. Otherwise, taking fingerprints might be a bit troublesome. |

*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.
