Consulate Review: Guangzhou, China Review Topic: K1 Visa Event Description Review Date : December 11, 2009 Embassy Review : Well, to begin with, the Office was about 30 minutes late getting opened up. Dandan was seemingly calm and cool (more so than I). She said she began to be a little worried when she realized we had left a copy of her Passport out of the file... luckily they allowed her the time to go to the 4th floor and get a copy. She began to relax and chat a while until she and others noticed a lot of blue slips being passed out. She was really nervous when the one window that appeared to have handed out nothing but blue called her number. She said all went well, until he closed the file and asked her to tell him how many days a week I worked, and how many people were in the company I worked for. She had not really prepared for that question, but she recalled I had told her about a recent merger which put us to about 500 people... he questioned her again and she was a little shocked that her sounded like she was wrong. I think this was his personal effort to read her reactions about everything to eliminate any doubt about the "ligitimacy" of our relationship. He finally seemed to accept her answer and gave her the "pink color" she was wanting. The session lasted about 20 minutes, and she was merrily on her way to see me. I was waiting with a new friend (Kyle) who was awaiting results of his wife's K-3 visa interview. His wife Jingjing finished before Dandan, and was also granted the visa (congrats again Kyle & Jing jing). Now for the beginning of a wonderful life! ;-) 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.
