RFE letter requesting copies of marriage certificate and birth certificate after both were included in original packet. Sending packet certified only guarantees they received it but doesn't guarantee against loss of copies by the immigration officer(s) Nobody to speak to and find out what happened. Toll free number (customer service) civilians answering that don't know anymore than you do. |

| Embassy Review : |
The consular my fiance got was horrible. I've read all these reviews about great experiences, so I'm a bit astounded by how he was treated. In fact, he said that as he was sitting there waiting to get called, he was praying he wouldn't get the one he got but, he did. First the consular was asking him about my job in great detail and acting very judgmental. This is very unlike the other reviews I've seen where the consular asks basically one question, gets the answer and moves on. This guy expected a lot of detail. He then went onto the age, and when my fiance told him my age after telling his, the consular grimaced. Why does this guy care? His job isn't to bring his personal opinion but, to make sure this is a bona fide relationship. He finalized the interview by asking when was the last time my fiance smoked marijuana. With that answer, he banned him for whats remaining left of a year. |

*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.
