Consulate Review: Jamaica Review Topic: General Review Event Description Review Date : February 20, 2024 Embassy Review : K1-We arrived at the Embassy in Kingston an hour early at noon. There were people across the street who would hold our phones for a small fee. We could not sit on the benches or be on the property until 12:55. At about 1:00 a line formed, there were about twenty people ahead of us. Once we were checked in, we were directed across a courtyard to the interview building. We sat down at about 1:20. After about a twenty-five-minute wait we were called up for the interview. We were asked the following: 1. How long have we been together 2. How many times have I visited Jamaica (the interviewer was impressed with the number of times I had been; which led to asking what I did for a living... I said IT he said oh, that's why) 3. Has my fiance been to the USA Our interview was about 10 minutes; we were given a letter to provide an Impediment form and police record. Our interview agent was very nice and wished us luck. Now, getting the Impediment form was a pain. It took 3 months of running back and forth from Mandeville to May Pen because the employees at the RGD were inconsistent with information and seemed to not know the process. My fiance finally asked a friend for advice in which he assisted with the process in January. The next issue was sending off the requested documents. We were not given a barcode to mail the packet to the document center while at the Embassy; the supervisor who assisted my fiance gave him her phone number for me to call her. I called several times along with several other numbers... and after spending over $100 on international phone calls that got me nowhere, the supervisor finally answered last week. She was very helpful and polite and gave me the number to the document center with instructions on what to ask for. Called the document center, and the agent there walked me through the ais.visa-info.com website; downloaded the barcode receipt, and emailed it to the supervisor who sent off our packet today. Whew! Now we wait.... Rating : 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.
