Member Reviews:

Consulate Review: Argentina Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : May 26, 2009 Embassy Review : My fiance went by himself to the interview. We rehearsed all possible questions beforehand, just to prepare and went over all the paperwork. His interview was at 1 in the afternoon. An older lady did the interview and he waited about an hour before she called him in. He said she was very friendly and seemed very happy for both of us. She asked him to tell her how we met and a little bit about our history as a couple. She looked over the pictures and the phone records. She asked him what my parents names were and if I had brothers and sisters and where I work and what I do. She asked him what was the first thing he was going to do when he gets to the US and he said "get married"javascript:emoticon('')She also asked him where he was going to live. Then she looked over the paperwork, had him swear to tell the truth and then sign a few papers. At some point they took his fingerprints. She said all was in order, gave him some paperwork back and told him they would be mailing a sealed envelope and the passport with the visa in 3-5 business days. Overall he said the interview was very easy and straightforward. 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.
