Consulate Review: Vancouver, Canada Review Topic: K3 Visa Event Description Review Date : January 25, 2008 Embassy Review : We arrived at the Consulate at about 12:15ish and the security guard told us to come back at about 12:50 (our interview was at 1pm). We hung out across the street for a bit at a restaurant. Went back to the consulate at about 12:45pm and went through the first security check (no line up outside). They security guards were really nice. After security, we went up a flight of stairs to an elevator. A man took us to the 20th floor where we went through security again. We were told to sit down and that we would be called to window B shortly. There was only one other girl (K3) in the waiting room. When i was called to the window a very nice lady took in all of my checklist docs (originals and copies). We were told to sit down and wait for finger printing and our interview. About 30 min later I was called for fingerprinting then told to sit and wait for my interview. The other girl was called for her interview first. Her case was very complicated so her interview took forever (atleast 45min!). I was finally called to booth 4 for my interview. The officer was the sweetest little asian lady. She had a big smile on her face when we got to the window. Like others have mentioned, the interview was more of a conversation than an interview. Questions she asked us: -How and when we met -When did we get engaged -When did we get married -What we both did for a living and how much $ my husband (USC) made -If i planned on working in the same field in the USA -She asked if our parents were ok with the way we met -She asked for some pictures, quickly flipped through them She then told us that everything looked ok to issue to visa. She told us to have a seat and we would be called back to window B. About 2 min later we were called to window B and told to come back the next day after 2 pm to pick up my passport. 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
