Consulate Review: Rio de Janeiro, Brazil Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : April 14, 2022 Embassy Review : Very few people, some spouses, fiances and US passports services I could notice. May of 2021, nice winter in Rio, interviewed by a very nice lady. She asked me about the tourist visa denied previously, my profession, how many times my fiance had been to Brazil to visit me (8 total), if the father of my son has agreed about him to live in the USA, and then she said everything was right, approved, I asked how long could it take because I had flight ticket for june 11, she said she would try to expedite it, looks like was not possible. Unfortunately the days that followed the interview I got two holidays, one Brazilian and one American in the same week, plus the delays because of the pandemic, plus I had to return to the Consulate to redo fingerprints for my son (as a child, he didn't need to be present for that, only for the interview) they only issued my visa and my son's almost one month after. Luckily I was still in Rio de Janeiro, since I would stay there until to receive my visa and flight to the USA, which I did the next day.

*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.
