Officer was very nice. Only asked 3 questions. 1) What is your fiance’s job? 2) How did you meet? 3) Where does your fiancé live? About a 5 minute interview which concluded with your visa is approved. Very positive experience. |

Interviewer was very friendly and made us feel comfortable. She directed a majority of the questions to the applicant. Spent a lot of time reviewing the I-485 and asked to confirm certain information on the petition. Asked us how we met and how many times I had travel to Thailand. At the conclusion of the interview, she told us she would review the file and make her decision later that day. She stated if there was any additional information needed, she would send a letter with her request. Interview went smoothly and felt very relaxed throughout the conversation. |

Immigration officer was very welcoming and made us feel comfortable. Asked questions that were expected such as “How you met?, How many times did you both meet prior to your arrival in US?, Have you met each other’s family?, Where have you resided since your arrival in the US?”
Make sure you bring your most recent tax returns and any recent documents that were not part of the original I-751 application. |

*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.
