| Embassy Review : |
I had an interview at 8 am, got there at 7.30. There were around 30 people in front of me. We went through the police that checked everyone's passports, then a guy who checked purses and such to make sure you are no carrying prohibited items (hint hint - do not bring charges or pretty much anything electronic apart from a phone). Then I gave a person my phone and went to stand in a long line to go through security. A guy was calling all immigrant visas and asked us to go ahead which was nice.
Went to a window, got a green sheet of paper that said "hall 5 window 22", that's on the second floor, easy to find. Once I got there a person in that window checked out surnames and gave everyone a number. After my number was called I gave the same person the originals (passport, birth certificate, police certificate, marriage certificate, medical envelope and 2 new photos) plus scans of certificates.
After that I waited until 9.30 for the actual interview. Consular was a nice guy, we spoke in English and he asked the usual questions first - when and how we met, what happened after that, what do we do, did I go to the US to see him, that's pretty much it.
Then since we met on a website, he explained that I need to provide proof that the website is not a marriage broker and that an email from the website would be enough. He gave me 221g paper, kept my passport and said to email them a letter from the website and after that my visa would be approved.
That's it. Totally wish he just approved my visa on the spot though. |

*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.
