My EAD was never processed because my AOS was processed first (which makes the EAD pointless). The dates above show the dates my AOS was approved and received. |

Completed biometrics 10 days before the scheduled appointment. There was no one else at the ASC so they had no issue with taking me early. |

Consulate Review: Sydney, Australia
Review Topic: K1 Visa
|
| Event |
Description |
| Review Date : |

| Embassy Review : |
It was a reasonably stressful day as I was nervous, but the process was extremely easy. The consulate was fairly busy on the day, but immigrant visas get priority over tourist visas (which I assume most of the people were there for) so I was processed rather quickly after taking a number from the ticket machine.
They call you up and send you back to sit in the waiting area quite a few times, and then they finally call you up to a window where you have a brief chat with a consular officer who asks a couple of questions and then congratulates you on having your visa approved.
The only thing I was not expecting is that the consulate held my passport and posted it back to me (because they have to insert the visa in to the passport). I wasn't expecting that and was a bit concerned about it as I had to fly back home to the other side of the country, but I was able to use my driver's license at the airport so the passport was not needed. It would have been nice for the Consulate to warn me of that before going there.
Overall though I was not there for very long before my visa was approved, and it was a pretty painless process. |

*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.
