Consulate Review: Guangzhou, China Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa Event Description Review Date : August 26, 2006 Embassy Review : I had my wife shove my 2005 Taxes and W2s to the VO upon greeting him (my P3 packet was completed November, 2005). He asked her: 1) How did you meet? [Internet] 2) Do you have emails? [Yes.] She gave him a packet with sample emails and many screen shots of our Yahoo chat/web cam session including other family members and also photos. 3) Is your ex-husband permitting your daughter to leave China? [Yes.] She presented a signed, translated and notarized statement from him to that effect. Your approved! 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
