Well I arrived In Atlanta and went to the desk as normal. I gave the officer my papers (rown Envelope ) they gave me back my CD said it was all on the file they did not need it so I have it with me , he then congratulated me on my upcoming wedding. I was then sent to a small room where they check your documents and stamp your passport. They had a few people ahead of me so I waited at least one hour. They called me to the desk a lady she appeared to be pleasant. I was asked if my son was coming with me ? I replied "no" The lady then stamped my passport the I94 was already there this stated K1 and it gave me until October 2011. I then said am I done? She replied yes that was it I was done. At this time my luggage was on the belt I collected them and because I had a connecting flight I dropped them off ready for the the loading later. I had to go back through security and then that was it. I had a small meal at TGIF Restaurant and then awaited my flight to GR. The whole experience was great no harrassment at all. |

Hy to all VJ fanily, after a very lengthy long K1 visa process we were approved June 2011 got married August 2011.
Today 25 January 2012 5 months later on we were interviewed in Detroit and were approved our Green Card, A day before the inteview the Combo card for work and advance parole came that was nicely timed.
The interview lasted at least 30 mins she asked us some generic questions about our relationship how we met and if we were still married?? then she checked off the information already on file and asked for any addtional, we supplied our W2 and some photos (4) with our insurance documents, car and bank details. The officer took copies of our Driving licence and my birth certificate again and then gave us a form relating to applying for the ROC in two years that was it over and she said I am pleased to say your Green Card will be with you in 2- 3 weeks.
The whole process has been long and some what stressful for us both, however we can relax for at least for 21 months nearly 2 years. To all of you that have supported us on this journey with advice of some kind or just your postings of how you are all doing, a heartfelt thanks from us both to you all. A special thanks to Amerbrit, A&F, B Rossow, Tyger87 and all my VJ friends.
To those who are waiting for interviews collate as much information together as possible and just have everything ready for the day. The interview was very informal she made us feel very relaxed and we were both asked general questions nothing to make us at all nervous, so be yourself confident relaxed and most of all honest.

*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.
