Interview was in Buffalo, NY. The male interviewer was very nice and professional. Live videotaping was performed. He asked me questions first then my wife. Afterwards of about 10 minutes, he informed us that my wife passed and her permanent 10 year green card would be mailed to us in 7-10 business days:) |

| Embassy Review : |
My fiancee arrived at the US Embassy in Vientiane, Laos at approx 745am. Went inside and waited for her name to be called. Paid the interview fee of $240. Waited some more and then called her name for the interview. The female consular officer asked her a series of questions:
How did you meet?
When was the last time you saw your fiance?
How many children does your fiance have and what are their ages?
Where does your fiance live?
Where does your fiance work?
What does your fiance do for a living?
How many times has your fiance been married?
Where does your father work?
After that, the officer asked her if she spoke English. When she said yes, the officer spoke with her for about 5 minutes in english. Interesting that the officer did not ask her if I spoke Lao language which I do. She looked at all the evidence that was presented and gave my fiancee a 221g worksheet for me to complete.
After two weeks, we resubmitted the required evidence and we were approved woohoo! The workers and the consular officer were very professional and very nice. |

*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.
