Consulate Review: Kuwait Review Topic: General Review Event Description Review Date : May 27, 2017 Embassy Review : Hello! I just want to share my experience AT US Embassy, Kuwait during my interview last May 22,2017. It all went well. People their were very accommodating. I got a missing document though. I didn't bring my marriage certificate, just the divorce decree. They also asked for my son's birth certificate and gave me an option so i can include him in the application. But i told them that I don't plan on bringing him yet. They still ask for his birth certificate for future use so he will have a record already in the immigration. After i paid, i've waited for awhile then the consulate officer called me already. He did the biometrics and asked me to oath before the interview. He didn't really ask much. Just the basics. It didn't even take 5 mins. Then he told me to wait for 5 mins coz he will make the refusal form since my documents has some missing. He handed me back all the originals including my passport. Then i asked him if what will happen next after I submit the missing documents. He just said with a smile "then were good to go".. But still I was apprehensive. So i prepared all the missing documents and sent it to the embassy the next day. The day after that, they called and asked me to bring my passport already.. Weeee No i'm waiting for their call again to pick it up. 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.

** Not all cases are transfered
