| Comments : |
POE was Edmonton, AB, Canada. Customs officer took my fingerprints electronically and led me to the secondary office. They took all my paperwork and the envelope from the medical. After that I waited. They filled out some stuff, asked me some easy questions (What's your fiance's middle name? What's his birthday? Where does he work?). That was it. They gave me back my passport with the I-94 and I was on my way to my flight into Los Angeles. |

| Embassy Review : |
Super easy. The hardest part was waiting. The officers were nice. We waited outside until being let inside to go through a little security section. Led up the stairs and into the elevator, up to the 20th floor. Went to Window B, turned on the light and a nice lady came and took my forms and documents and such. Sat down for maybe 5 minutes, was called up again to Window 6 and the guy there was also really friendly. Asked us a few questions, about my plans once I'm in the States, our wedding plans, how we met and all that. And then we talked about games because Daniel and I met online, Final Fantasy XI, haha. And that was about it. We went back to Window B, the lady before told us we were approved and what do to and that was about it! We worried needlessly. They didn't need to see any of our evidence or even our photographs, nothing. Done. Overall a pleasant, reassuring even if a bit of a anti-climactic experience! |

*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.
