Consulate Review: Argentina
Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa
Event Description
Review Date : March 7, 2016
Embassy Review : The interview was very good and fast. We had our appointment set at 9am, we arrived at the Embassy at 8:30am (we have planned to arrive earlier but we have a hard time finding a place to park the car, finally we left it at the parking lot of "La Rural".) A girl who was at the entrance asked us about our case, when we said we where there for an immigrant visa she told us to go to Window 1, there they asked for a photo of each (only for the applicants, they didn't asked me anything as a USC), once we gave the photos we were asked to wait a for a moment, after 10 minutes they called us again, they gave us the famous green folder and said we could come in.

We went through Security and after that to get my husband fingerprints taken, we must said that, at every step they reminded us we didn't need to wait in any lines. In the waiting room we put our documents in the folder and when we were finishing an agent call us to Window 5. She asked for every document and after some doubt about my husband Birth Certificate (it was an original one, from 1977 and instead of saying Certificate it said Testimony) she told us the consul would evaluate if the document was valid. After she got all the documents she told us to go back to the waiting room and that the Consul will call us after a while.

After about 40 minutes, the Consul called us to the same Window 5, both the consul and the agent thank me for going to the interview with my family. The Consul was really friendly, she only asked us a few questions such as: When we met, If we got married in 2010, why we wanted to get back to the US, if my Husband was going to expand his business (from argentina) in the US. After that she said we were approved and gave us some papers with our A-numbers and information on the Immigrant Fee. All the interview was in Spanish, we were there for only 10 minutes (at the most). We were inside the Embassy for an hour and a half.

Rating : 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
