Consulate Review: Frankfurt, Germany Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : November 19, 2007 Embassy Review : Less the 2 HOURS I went with my SO to the interview and all went very smoothly! Our appointment was for 9:30am but we were there at 7:50am and out by 9:30am. We were a bit concerned before we arrived because the doctor had not yet sent the paperwork to Frankfurt (he did his medical ine Dortmund). But they said that was not a problem. We arrived to be the 5th in line. He showed his appointment letter and we were given a number (all outside of the building). We walked to another line to waited to go to security and once that was over we were let into another building. Once there we were told to go to window 22 but that was wrong because we had already paid. So we sat and waited for our # to be called. 5 minutes later our number was called and we went to window 23. At window 23 he handed his passport and picture and we were given an envelope to put stamps on and a sheet with instructions of what to order in which to organize our paperwork for when we were next called. We were alled again and we handed in all froms. Basically the I134. We sat again and were called to another window. Finger prints and done! The officer said, "you should recieve your visa within the week" Everyone was really friendly. We stayed at the Friedberger hotel which was super! We hope this review helps and best of luck! 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.
