Consulate Review: Guangzhou, China Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa Event Description Review Date : May 29, 2019 Embassy Review : They did not ask much questions and did not check additional documents. some questions they were asking: Did you get married in Ukraine? You do not have kids? How did you meet? What will you husband do in the US when both of you return? Why are you applying for IR1 visa only now (!!!we have been married for 10 years) ? Ok. Your visa is granted. later I had two issues: 1. they wanted me to mail them my original birth certificate because the translation was made from a photocopy. 2. they put visa in the new passport but I have put data for old passport (all documents were done with the old passport) . I had problem getting my passport back as I had to register for the delivery using the new passport because visa was there, and I did not remember the passport data. Took a while to finally get it. Rating : 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
