Consulate Review: Bangkok, Thailand Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa Event Description Review Date : December 13, 2011 Embassy Review : First thing I would Like to warn everyone about is DO NOT WORRY about being the First People to the Embassy. We were the first people there and when I say that we were greating Interviews start at 0700 and they start letting people in a Little Early after that it is RANDOM as heck. First there in the Morning last out in the morning Literaly. You can go in the embassy but you have to wait and you can NOT be in the area for the Interviews. As for the interview: My wife said that there are multiple interviewers at window no.5. You will go to Window 6 first to turn in Documents there We were told that our Police check was not there and then when My wife presented the copies of the Documents ( That I raced accross Bankok on the Back of a scooter to get from Lawyers Office) they were were in the Packet afterall. Each interview she said seems to be different I assume based on your case. Don't be affraid to bring a truck load of documents but be prepared that the may only glance over the materials as was our case. Our interviewer spent a great deal of time on the subject of Family. What were my chidrens names How old are they What were their B"days Did she know i was Married Before Why I was divorced from my First Wife. etc etc etc One thing I would point out THEY are not trying to make friends at all. Accorning to my wife after a few questions it was more of a conversation. BTW it is like waiting for a baby to be born after your wife has been in labor For 2 years. I rated it a 4 because we were there so long. 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.
