Consulate Review: France Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : October 5, 2006 Embassy Review : The waiting room looks a bit like a prison but the immigration officers are nice and helpful. Rating : Moderate

POE Review: Newark Event Description Entry Date : 2006-10-22 Embassy Review : Outdated form given for EAD application by the immigration officer, you need to go online for the updated one! Harassment Level : Low

Local US CIS Office Review: Chula Vista CA Review Topic: cis_topic Event Description Review Date : March 16, 2007 Embassy Review : We arrived at 10:30am, the appoitnment was at 11am and we went to the interview at 11 exactly. Interview took 20 minutes. The immigration officer (a lady) asked how we met and what we have in common and if my family had let me live overseas easily. My name was not checked yet by FBI so I will have to wait before I can receive the green card. It went really smoothly and the immigration officer was very courteous. Harassment Level : 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
