| Comments : |
The staff in the San Bernardino office was very friendly and efficient. We arrived 30 minutes prior to scheduled time, and were told to wait with everyone else. After roughly 45 minutes, we were called in by a very cordial officer who only asked to check my birth certificate, asked a few questions about my previous visa, how me and my wife had met, how long before we decided to get serious about our relationship. Approved in less than 10 minutes! |

| Embassy Review : |
Had my interview on August 28 at 7:20. Arrived at the building at 6:50 and was allowed in at 07:10. Victor led us all in, gave us a list of documents to prepare and a form to fill in. Interestingly enough, they did not ask for evidence of relationship - during the interview, they referred only to the evidence we had submitted with our petition.
After twenty minutes or so, I was called to hand in the documents and have my fingerprints taken - the officer was incredibly polite and friendly. Then back to waiting: this time for the interview. As the consul started interviewing the applicant next to me, another booth opened and called my name. Another very friendly officer welcomed me, asked questions about how and when my fiancée and I had met, if and when she had met my family, when I had met hers, what the wedding plans were. After returning my expired passport with my valid tourist visa, she wished me all the best and I found myself a little stunned at how smooth and simple everything had been!
By 9:00 I was already back in the hotel. On Friday (3 days later), my status changed to “Issued†on the CEAC website. |

*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.
