The process wasn't to bad but I did feel like we got hassled a little both in Jamaica and here. I feel like he would have had a real hassle if I wasn't there. They double and triple checked his visa in Jamaica but for the most part we still made it out of there in 10 minutes. Then when we made it to America. We had to stand in a line. They opened up more lines to make it faster. They check our IDs took his paperwork sent us to a waiting room. We waited about 30 minutes. Then after they put all his info in they gave him back his visa. Then the officer gave him a fist pump and said welcome to America and we left.

Consulate Review: Jamaica Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : July 19, 2016 Embassy Review : Well my fiance had his interview today. It went smoothly but the questions I felt was kind of weird. They ask him what was my daughter's boyfriend's name, what was my supervisor name and how did we meet? We got approved so I'm nit going to complain. Yayyy. 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.
