I've filed a K-3 and my wife will end up at the interview at the Moscow Embassy. I had a VERY bad experience dealing with the USCIS jackasses at the embassy...so bad that I wrote my Senator who will make inquiry.

Anyway, I have some fears that the same sorry-****ed USCIS idiots in Moscow will also hold the interviews. But I've been told that the interviews are done by Staet Dept. folks. I hope that's true.

Anyone know about who handles the interviews? Also, should I be alert for signs of retribution for contacting my Senator?

Yes, the interviews are conducted by "Consular Officers", part of the Dept. of State.

Nearly all major US Consulates in the world have attached USCIS offices that process DCF cases etc.

A Warning to Green Card Holders About Voting

Actually, as I tried to explain to the OP in another thread, there is a regional USCIS suboffice in Moscow. This office is located in the US Embassy in Moscow (for the obvious reason that subletting space there is better than just leasing space somewhere else in Moscow). It is one of seven sub-offices in the Rome District. It has jurisdiction over the following countries: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Estonia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Russian Federation, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan.

This is bigger than just DCF processing attachments, but still has nothing to do with the Consular processing end of visas to enter the US. That is indeed handled by Consular Officers under the DOS as you said.
