Local US CIS Office Review: Tampa FL Review Topic: cis_topic Event Description Review Date : November 10, 2016 Embassy Review : We came about 15 minutes before our interview but had to wait almost two hours since the case before us was a "difficult one". The lady before us said the interviewer was aggressive, etc. They will observe you as they call the other cases so be on your best behavior. We had the same officer as the lady who complained (Polish, first name Janusz). He was nothing but nice and did apologize about the wait. He was straightforward and polite, but did tell us if we said anything to discredit our marriage he would drag it longer. If you have the best intentions, honest, and cordial there should be no problem! He said he would approve us the same day and we didn't even have to disclose any relationship stuff except he asked me how we met. The interview lasted but 5 minutes and though he was curt he was very nice! Harassment Level : 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
