My husband and I recently went to our interview at the embassy in Buenos Aires on March 26th 2009. We arrived outside and even though the guards aren't very helpful telling you where you need to go we finally found out which window to go visit to find out where we needed to go. Once we went inside they have an airport security type of thing where you have to put your phone and anything metal inside a plastic box and they put it through the scanner. Once you have done that, they will ask you to walk through a metal detector and then they will give you a number to pick up your items when you are finished with your interview. They will keep your phone, but I guess that is because they don't want you to make calls inside the building for security reasons. You will then walk through a door and up a hill that will lead you to another door and again to another window. That person will tell you to walk over to a desk and take a number. Once you have done that you will walk through another door... read complete review

My fiance's interview was scheduled for 2pm. We arrived around 1:30 and they told us we could enter in fifteen minutes, so we waited outside until 1:45 and then they let us in.
There were hardly any other people there the entire time we were there (which was about 2 hours). By the time we left there was only one other person waiting to be seen by a consular officer.
A little after 2pm they called us to window 6 and asked for all of the original documents. We handed them over and they told us to have a seat and wait to be called by our number at window 5. There was only one consular officer doing interviews and there were maybe 4 people ahead of us, so we had to wait approximately two hours. Then they called us (by name, not by the number they had given us) to window five.
The interview went by super fast. It took maybe a total of 10 minutes. The consular officer was very nice and smiling the whole time, which made us feel a little more at ea... read complete review

My fiance went for his interview and said the place was practically empty when he got there. He was taken to one woman who asked him for each of his documents one by one. When they got to asking him for his birth certificate, he realized he had somehow forgotten it at home, though he did have the Xerox copy of it. The strange part was that they said this was the wrong birth certificate anyway! Though this was the copy we sent with the copies of all the documents in package three. They did give us RFE's for incorrect police certificate copies in package 3 but there was no mention of this being the wrong birth document (when looking for his birth cert. we found two that his mom had...so we copied and planned on bringing the one that looked most official....apparently we thought wrong) ANYWAY. The point is, even if he HAD brought the birth certificate it would've been the wrong one and he would have been rejected on that premise. So they gave him a letter saying mail your passport and bi... read complete review

Overall, my experience was very good. Here are some details.
You don't have to be at the embassy too early because they will not let you enter until the time of the appointment. For example, my appointment was at 1:00pm and I was not allowed entry into the embassy until 1:00pm. Once I was inside, I waited approximately 15 minutes until I was asked to provide my paperwork and documents. Then, the worst part of the process began: waiting something like 2 hours before my interview. But since I had seen 5 interviews proceed before me during this time and all of them were successful, that made me feel more relaxed and confident. When I was called for the interview, I was required to provide fingerprints and take a sworn statement. Next, the interview officially began. The interviewer was very nice and made many friendly jokes.
Some questions he asked were:
- How and when did you and your fiance meet?
- How many times have you been togethe... read complete review
