Hi all, does anybody know how strictly accurate you have to be with address/employer date ranges in last 5 years on the I-129f form for K1 Visa?

I ask as some of them I may be off by a couple days and haven't heard back from some of the employers yet.

 

Additionally, I checked out the average waiting times for Japan for getting the interview at the visajourney stats but 48 days seems pretty fast for what I was led to expect.

Can anyone verify that that's about right or normal?

 

Thanks

Japan seems to have a relatively quick process from what I've seen. Additionally, if Japan allows, you can schedule your interview for whatever free space is available, which could be sooner or later depending on your needs.

Does this still apply if it is a Brazillian National living in Japan?

As long as the applicant has legal resident status in Japan, they may interview at the US embassy there.  Same prioritization for visa cases of non-citizen legal residents as those of Japanese citizens.
