| Embassy Review : |
The first day my Fiancee went to the embassy in AD, a local woman working there messed up and told her that if she interviewed and was approved that day, her daughter, who will follow to join and interview in Guangzhou, China, would not be able to get a visa. The following day my fiancee went back and was in line to get in to the embassy when they called her and apologized and said to come in ASAP and they would take care of her. They told her to leave her passport and pick it up in one week with the visa. She goes back to get her passport with the visa and she is put in AP. In AP for 6 days before we see our case number on the embassy web site, which isn't too bad! She finally picks up the visa on Dec. 1. We had an original interview date of 20 October and received the visa on 1 December.
Aside from the administrative snafus, the actual interview process was pretty easy. Asked how we met, when we met. Asked about my work. Only looked at the photos we sent in with the original petition. My Fiancee said it was a very easy experience, except for making the 5 hour round trip six times! |

*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.
