Comments : My husband had his interview on Wednesday March 6 @ 8:00 AM. We reached the Diplomatic Shuttle Services at 7:00AM. Got 2 tickets. Each ticket cost 500 rupees roundtrip.Arrived at the Embassy about 7:20 AM. Went through security screening, I am the U.S. citizen petitioner and I went to the interview with my husband. I showed my U.S. passport and told them Im the petitioner and they let me in. Husband went for biometrics which took about 20 minutes. Next we both went to the waiting room for the interview. Our number was called and we went to the window. CO asked for medical exam reports, interview letter, token, and showed us the DS-230 and asked us if our phone number has been changed. CO had my husband sign the second part of DS 230. He then asked which language my husband wants to take the interview and then he said have a seat. We then went back and sat down. Our number was then called after about 30 minutes of waiting and we went to window #4 where there was a White Male CO interviewing my husband.He was very friendly. I went with my husband to the window and he asked for my passport and asked me who I was. I told him I am the petitioner.
CO asked me how long I have been living in Pakistan and when do I intend to return back to U.S.A. He then told me to wait in the waiting room while my husband gets interviewed.

Co asked my husband the following questions:
-Do you have any children?
-Have you ever travelled out of Pakistan?
-Have you had any previous passports?
-Was your marriage arranged or love?
-What does you wife's father do for a living in the U.S.?
-How long has your wife been in the U.S?
-Do you have pictures of your wedding? Husband showed wedding pictures and took a look at 3-4 and then gave them back.

The interview went well and smooth. CO said everything is fine in our case and nothing is needed. He handed us a blue form 221g and said we need to do additional administrative processing which will be resolved in 2-3 months. He also handed us back the documents we sent to NVC. He was in AP for 2 yrs & 3 months.

*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
