No problems. My fiance asked to have the EAD stamp, but they had already given it to her. She only had a three hour lay over in NY, going into JFK and out of LaGaurdia (travel agency messed up i guess), but she had enough time, and everything went smoothly. |

Her green card came on Friday, then the EAD came 3 days later on Monday, so this was totally useless. I guess it's kind of a cool card. |

Consulate Review: Czech Republic

| Embassy Review : |
We asked the consulate before hand if we could pick up the visa the next day. They replied that it was not possible, and my fiancee needed to return home to get the visa. We already had return airfare paid, that we had to swallow, paid for the courier service they would not let us know, and had to search the city for a hotel with vacancy on a busy night. Very stressful experience, but she was approved, and now has the visa!  
The interview was fast. They asked only about past entriest to the US, and when we met. Whole inteview was less than 5 minutes after waiting for 4 hours in the consulate. |

*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.
