Consulate Review: Frankfurt, Germany Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa Event Description Review Date : September 5, 2013 Embassy Review : Finding a parking spot was easy, there were many available in the area. I went to the US citizen line (the other line is for non-immigrant visas) and was immediatly asked to counter 2. There I showed the invitation letter and my passport. Then I went throught the security check and walked over to the consulate. I was told to go to counter 22 directly. I had no payments to make and was given a paper that explained what all was going to happen in the consulate that day. I waited for like 10min and was asked to counter 20 where my stuff got checked and the DHL Expressmarke was filled out. Then I had to wait again for a little while. Then I was asked to counter 17, made an oath to tell the truth, was asked some random questions about my husband and me and was told to sit back down. About 5 min later I got asked to counter 17 again where I was told my conditional visa would arrive in the mail in the next 5 business days. It arrived the next morning. The whole process in the consulate took only 1 hour incl. the security check. javascript:emoticon('') Everybody was very friendly! 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.
