Not true --- depends which consulate. Check with the consulate that will hold the interview. Some will not let you in with anyone else, including spouse.

I wouldn't. Especially if he's 3 years old. You don't know how long you're going to be in there for. When I was at my interview some lady had 3 kids with her, all above 6 years old and they got tired of waiting and starting trying to amuse themselves and the security guard told her she had to control them 3 times. Plus what if your interviewer is asking questions and your child starts crying? I think its best to leave the little ones with someone else on the day of your interview.

I'd agree with sprailenes. But if you want to bring your child, it should be okay.

Consular-Related Visitors

The following persons may accompany a visa applicant during Consular-related visits:

Interpreter: Applicants may bring one interpreter if they do not speak English well enough to participate in an interview.

Special Needs Visitors: Applicants may bring one person to help if they are elderly, disabled, or if the applicant is a minor child applying for a visa.

Attorney: Attorneys will NOT be permitted to accompany clients into the waiting room or at their interviews.

U.S. Citizens: One American citizen may accompany an applicant.

Due to waiting room size, the large volume of applicants and the time required to screen consular clients, other accompanying persons cannot be admitted to the waiting room. Drivers, friends, and extra relatives must wait outside or return to meet the applicant after the interview has been completed - with the exception of applicants with children.
