Review Topic: K1 Visa

The embassy for Guatemala was really easy to go through. Get there early as there will be multiple lines to go through. You can park in Cayala and then take a shuttle or just walk, but if you chose the shuttle you will need to get a shuttle pass beforehand. Once it was our turn the interview lasted at most 10 minutes and the questions were pretty basic. Once approved, they give you an address to pick up your approval packet within a week. Our interview was on Tuesday and the packet was ready by Friday.

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Efficient and pleasant overall. Arrived at the embassy early (around 6:30 AM) with my beneficiary fiancee and our newborn son, went to the immigrant visa line, and within 30 minutes we were processed and in the building. From there, had to wait until our number came up, at which point we went up to the window for the interview.

Interview itself was only about 5-10 minutes long. Consular officer asked us a few basic questions: where and how we met, how often I visited her, our plans for after moving to the US, if either of us had been married before (we hadn't). He then congratulated us, said the visa is approved, and we should have it within 5 business days. Didn't even need to take a look at our evidence.

Later that morning our CEAC status switched to "Approved" and the next day it switched to "Issued".

Review Topic: EB-3 Visa

Guatemala City consulate seems to be processing roughly 25 cases daily.

The intake outside the compound was very straightforward, they check your documents and make you go through security. They will assign you a number and ask you to wait in the waiting room area. This area has enough space to keep a safe distance between you and other people waiting for their interviews. We were number 22 out of 25.

They call you a first time to review all your documents and fingerprint you. The only exception was our 2 year old boy, he did not need to submit fingerprints. About 15 minutes later they call you a second time for the actual interview. It was very straightforward and we were asked very basic questions regarding the nature of our petition. Since our case was employment-based, the questions were work-related and we spent in total less than 10 minutes in front of the consulate official. She informed us that our visa was approved and our passports should be ret... read complete review
