Consulate Review: London, United Kingdom Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : December 20, 2023 Embassy Review : My interview was scheduled for 10.30am. I arrived 9am with my mom and went to local theatre cafe (World Heart Beat). Embassy is pretty close to Nine Elms but lots of construction in area can throw you off. Cafe took small bags for a donation of £6 but think across the road would take larger items. Left my mom at cafe at 10am and walked to join queue. I asked at blue tent but they directed me to red tent (visa service). They wanted DS-160 and passport. Guard at door wanted to see DS-160 and asked me to open app on phone to show it wasn't a bomb. After that was a little airport security bit for bags and myself. Then you go through a courtyard to next queue area. There was no guidance here, the visa service queue was long while citizen service wasn't. I went to citizen queue based on reviews here, no idea if it was right but lady accepted my DS-160. She added a sticker with a number and directions. The directions are go up elevator to first floor, turn left, walk past all the queues/desks and turn left at the end again. Here you wait for number to be called. First desk asked for documents. They were friendly but direct. They happily shuffled through tax records to fish out what they wanted. Everything else was basically what's listed on evidence list. They didn't need intent to marry as I interviewed before expiry, no relationship evidence. One extra is they asked for pcc for my birth country until I said I didn't have nationality there but they did take for my dual nationality and where I lived post 16. They took my fingerprints, handed me a 'know your rights' form for abused spouses and told me to sit down until I was called again. 10mins later or so I was called to another window for interview questions. I was asked to swear my answers would be true and give fingerprints again. Questions included 'how did you meet, when did you first meet, has he been here, when did you last see him, who proposed, where did he propose, how did the relationship progress, when do i plan to travel'. Quick run through of my documents to confirm they had what they needed then got told I was approved and to expect visa in 1-2weeks. From heading to queue to exiting, hour total. Majority was waiting. My CEAC changed to 'Non-immigrant Application Received'. This was Thursday, Fri no update then Mon 8.30am switched to Approved and 11am Issued. Tues I had tracking info and Wed (today) I have my visa 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.
