Consulate Review: Vancouver, Canada
Review Topic: K1 Visa

| Embassy Review : |
The interview at the consulate went relatively well. Our appointment was in the afternoon. We got there early, but we were told to wait outside as they do not let anyone into the consulate early.
There was 2 security checks that needed to be done. The first one at the front door. They confirmed the appointment and then did the usual metal detector check and led us to the elevator.
Upon reaching the right floor we had to go through another security check and then waited. We were called about 15 minutes later.
At the first window, the consular officer looked over paperwork and told us to take a seat again. We waited for another hour or so before we were called to a second window where the actual interview took place.
The interview was very basic...asked how we met, how often we've seen each other, confirmed when the wedding was going to take place etc...
I believe the total interview time was about 10 minutes.
After the approval we waited to see window 1 again. This time they took my passport and paperwork and told us to come back the next day to pick up the K1 Visa.
The next day...there was a long line outside the consulate. I went to the security desk and told the guard that I was there to pick up my visa and he let me up right away (a big thanks to the visajourney forum for this tip).
I was in and out of the consulate in about 30 minutes. |

*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.
