| Embassy Review : |
Waited maybe 45 mins to get called. Went in with husband and lawyer. Asked 6 questions about our relationship, officer said she already knew some answers from our photos! She was very friendly, whole thing lasted maybe 10 minutes. Approved there and then, said green card would take 2 weeks to produce. |
| Harassment Level : |
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
