Our interview was really easy. Most of the questions were made for Tim which is the American citizen. They didn't request anything, no pictures, no affidavits, nothing at all, just his passport. |

| Embassy Review : |
Thanks God and everybody here. I'm glad to tell we got approved.
We woke up at 4 am, arrived 4:55 and there were over 70 people ahead of us in line. At 6:20 they started to give tickets, ours were 72. By 6:32 they line started to move and by 6:45 we were both in.
At 7:30 more or less, they called us to drop off the documents (birth certificates, police record, medical results, etc). Then we went back to sit, 5 min later they called us to pay the 80 USD fees. 15 mins later they called us again for finger printing... after that the wait was longer, finally by 9:05 they called us for the interview at window 21!
She greeted us smiling and asked our names, then she asked Tim if he spoke Spanish to which he replied "no spañol" lol, then she turned to me and asked do you speak English?, I said yes, she smiled and said great, then let's have this interview in English!,she sworn us in,then started to ask a whole bunch of things specially to Tim lol.
Questions:
How did you meet?
What dating site?
Are you both Christians?
What denominations (churches do you go?)
Do your family know her?
Do you know her mother?
Can you tell me her name?
Does she have a lot of brothers?
Did you proposed to her?
When? Where?
Are you planning a small or big wedding?
How many times have you been here?
Do you know her family?
Then to me:
Do you know where does he live?
Do you remember when did you meet?
Did he give you a ring?
Yup!all these in less than 3 min lol.
Go pay domex, you are good guys! CONGRATULATIONS |

Timeline Comments: None yet, be the first!
*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.
