Interview was originally scheduled for 01/21/2022 but was rescheduled (without a reason) to 02/16/2022.

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa
Event Description
Review Date : February 17, 2022
Embassy Review : So I had my Green Card Interview today. What an awesome day for me and my wife.
As information to everyone in this group - My interview was scheduled for 8:30am. I turned up 15 minutes before my interview time and was asked to come back at 8:30am.
Clearing security was straight forward and we were taken upstairs. Within 5 minutes we were called up to provide all original documentation. After that we grabbed a seat and waited to be called for interview. It only took 15 minutes to get clear security and provide required documentation.
We waited around 20 minutes before being called for our interview. The interviewer asked the following questions:
1 - How did you both meet
2 - Where did you meet
3 - Where was your partner born
4 - Have you ever lived in the USA
5 - What is the longest time you have stayed in the USA
6 - Have you ever overstayed a visa or been deported
7 - Have you ever been convicted of a criminal offence
8 - What does your partner do for a job
9 - What do you do for a job and are you planning on working in the USA

In any case… questions were straight forward.. Interviewer was friendly and when he said the Visa has been approved we were so infinitely elated.

Within an hour the I checked my application status and it had changed to “Administrative Processing”.

So.. thankyou to everyone for the advice provided through this group. We are so happy to report that we have been accepted and are just waiting on my passport and documentation to be returned.
Good Luck everyone who is still waiting.

*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
