Comments : |
The interviewer basically asked our entire story. How did we meet? Where? Where did I propose? Do both families like the marriage? She asked about a couple pieces of evidence that we brought. One was a photo collage of my recent birthday party and the officer asked the beneficiary to name the people in the photos. The other was an affidavit from our interior designer. She asked about various projects we did with the designer. One thing I was perplexed by was the officer asked why were y'all using a dating app. The officer looked older but not that old. Online dating is very common among millennials and I never really had a particular reason other than why not try it? She said we should expect the new GC in a few weeks. |

US CIS Local Office ReviewsTimeline Comments: 15Hi, Can you let me know if my souse has already filed i130 petition, do we still require i129f (K3) to be filed?
JD2 on 2022-04-06 said:No, I-129F (K-3) is optional
Axl7 on 2022-04-15 said:Hi JD2, I have similar timelines as yours. Would appreciate it if we could connect. Please send me a note. Thanks!
JD2 on 2022-04-16 said:You can ask me here. I'll try to help if I can.
Axl7 on 2022-04-18 said:Thanks. My case status changed to being actively reviewed on March 5, 2022 (after filing I-129F) and has been like that ever since. Looks like your case got approved within 2 days from the actively reviewing stage (congrats!). Not sure what to expect in terms of timelines for approval with my case. And even though my beneficiary's consulate is New Delhi, I am hearing that all cases are being referred to Mumbai. Is that accurate? And how did you find out the date that your case was transferred to VSC from TSC?
JD2 on 2022-04-18 said:Yes all immigrant visas in Bombay. I just assumed based on the date of the online account notice which said Vermont
Axl7 on 2022-04-18 said:Thanks. Is your beneficiary based in New Delhi as well? Apart from the marriage certificate/wedding photos/travel itineraries, was there any additional supporting evidence you shared with your initial application?
JD2 on 2022-04-21 said:I had loads of evidence. I can't list it all here. Just search Google for types of evidence.
How long did it take to receive a notice from Uscis after Fedex or UPs delivered your k3
JD2 on 2022-05-07 said:I got SMS within 1 day of delivery and notice in the mail 8 days after that.
V11 on 2022-09-17 said:Did you get interview date?
JD2 on 2022-09-30 said:
JD2 on 2022-09-30 said:Just got interview letter today
JD2 on 2022-10-28 said:June 10th, 2022
*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
