Consulate Review: Madrid, Spain
Review Topic: K1 Visa
Event Description
Review Date : March 2, 2015
Embassy Review : MEDICAL
Easy peasy. They just ask some questions, do a quick examination, take some blood and then you have to go to a different building to get your X-Rays done. The bad part is that they don't do anything about your vaccinations. They ask you not to bring your records, they don't need to see them. They tell you that you'll have them checked in the US. Nice, I'll have to pay again.
INTERVIEW
You get there, leave your phone, get a number and wait. An officer will check the papers you sent. You'll have to give him your medical results and your passport. He'll give you some originals back (like your birth certificate, but not your police records). Then, you'll have to wait again and a different officer will call you for the interview. The interview happens through a window, not in an office as I expected. He made me swear an oath and then he asked me "What's your story?", "When did you get enganged?" and "Have you met his parents?". He was pretty interested in when and where we got engaged, I think that he noted it down. Then he just told me that I was approved and that I'll be able to pick up my passport at the post office in one to two weeks. He didn't ask me for any evidence.
I spent almost an hour in the consulate, but the first paperwork took only five minutes and the interview about two. Everyone was very very nice. The first officer talked to me in Spanish and the second one in English. There was a bunch of babies crying in the waiting room, a bit annoying, but who cares

Local US CIS Office Review: Denver CO
Review Topic: cis_topic
Event Description
Review Date : February 13, 2016
Embassy Review : Easy. The interview was at 7:30 AM. Got there at 7:20 and left at 8:00. The officer interviewed us for like 10 or 15 minutes. She just went through my application and asked some questions about it. She was interested in knowing what kind of visas I had used in the past to get to the US. My husband was asked about my parents' names and where I was born. Then she asked us how we met, how we celebrated our wedding, if we knew each other's parents... I gave her all the documents we had and explained what they were but she really didn't look at them.

She told us that we'd get a decision in the mail in one or two months. I was a little worried because we don't have a joint bank account and I'm not in my husband's lease, but it seems like everything was all right since the next day I already had an "approved" notice in the USCIS web page.javascript:emoticon('')

*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
