Consulate Review: London, United Kingdom Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa Event Description Review Date : April 24, 2013 Embassy Review : Arrived at 7am, first in line. Most other people there were for Non-Immigrant Visas. Appointment was at 8.30 but was seen at 8.15 at first, about 10 minutes sorting out paperwork and making sure all was in order. Very friendly and relaxed. 45 minutes later was called to the main interview. Young smart looking american man who was very professional but friendly. Asked the expected questions and within 5 minutes he said he was pleased to approve the visa. Waited 10 minutes in line to pay for the courier, £26 for the before 10am service. Was out of the embassy by 9.35 Come prepared and all will go well, no need to be nervous if you have everything in order and are telling the truth. 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.

** Not all cases are transfered
