Consulate Review: Guayaquil, Ecuador
Review Topic: K1 Visa
Event Description
Review Date : November 13, 2015
Embassy Review : I went to the interview with my fiancee, we had an interview scheduled for November 10 at 7:40. We arrived at 7AM. By the time we arrived there were about 15 people in front of us.

They opened the doors and set up a check-in podium at the front of the line by 7:30am. The first thing the lady at the podium said was that if anyone had an appointment at 8AM that they had to go to the back of the line, as they are only letting in the 7:40am appointments first. about 10 people left the line, and at this point the lines were split into two, an immigrant visa and non-immigrant visa line.

We ended up first on the immigrant visa line.

At the security checkpoint we were given a numbered chip that corresponded to the locker space where our cellphones were being held. Passed through security then walked to a desk that was right outside the main room. There we were asked for my fiancee's (beneficiary) passport. We were told to go inside and sit on the green chairs.

After about 10 minutes we were called up for the first interview. My fiancee had her fingerprints taken and we were asked to submit Financial documents, additional relationship evidence/photos, medical exam envelope and police record. We were told to sit and that we would be called up again shortly for the interview.

About 30 minutes passed before we were called up again, this time by an american lady at a different window. She asked several questions, including:
how we are related (we are second cousins)?

Why marry in the US if all of my Fiancee's family is in Ecuador?

Did I purchase an engagement ring? (my fiancee showed her the ring)

How come you didn't mention your then boyfriend in the B2 visa application you interviewed for in May? (which was denied in May)

When do you plan on having the wedding?

How long have you known each other?

After asking everything she said "congratulations you're approved" then gave us the blue slip with the usvisa-info website to track the case status and a booklet on domestic violence. What a happy moment, we were all smiles.

We had 3 things against us, a 9 year old age difference, relationship (second cousins) and a previously rejected B2 visa.

I'm just glad that everything worked out in our favor. Everyone was friendly and professional.

As of today (11/13/2015) CEAC status shows visa is issued. 3 days after interview.


Rating : Very Good

*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
