My fiance had his interview at 2pm local time and it was pretty low key. He arrived 20 minutes before and there were 5 other people waiting. He was given a number and they took all of the original forms and documents he had with him. An hour later he had his interview. The questions were basic:
- When/how did we meet
- What do I (the USC) do for a living
- When was the last time I went to Argentina and the last time he came to visit me in the US.
They did not ask to see any of the evidence he brought with him!
He said it was very quick and the guy was nice. I guess he teased my fiance because when he applied for his tourist visa in 2006 he listed me as his friend...

She said it went very easily. Just be well prepared. There will be alot of people waiting in line possibly and don't be discouraged by other plights or stories. She said the interview was very friendly and she rated it 10/10 for how well it went.  More to come

I'll try to be as in depth as possible. I've been to the Buenos Aires embassy several times over the years, and I'll try to describe the whole structure from start to finish. First off, there is alot of security at the embassy, much different than the other embassies downtown located in buildings directly on the street. The whole compound is surrounded by fencing, and security on the outside is provided by an unarmed local security company, with light blue pants and white shirts. During the interview process you'll never see a Marine around, just lots of the security guys.
There are two main entrances at the embassy, one on Colombia avenue across from the zoo and the other around the bend. The entrance close to the zoo is the one to enter for all visa interview and consular assistance to Americans. You have to register at a little booth before going in, they give you a number and then you either line up or, for immigration visas, you pretty much go straight in. They cond... read complete review

We filed our K1 application but 2 days later we got an email saying it was incomplete. Make sure you include a photocopy of the medical exam envelope with the application, not just make "arrangements for a medical exam" like the instructions say. The instructions are repetative and unclear. I think I understand the process now that it is over, so if anyone has questions ask away.
We got the interview date and arrived about 20 minutes before our interview, which was about right. We got through security in about 10 minutes. We spent the next 3.5 hours waiting, but it was actually useful and interesting to hear the other interviews taking place. There were 3 other K visa interviews before us and we overheard their questions and my fiance and I discussed our answer if we were asked the same thing.
When they called my fiance's name, we went up to the window...the interviews are very impersonal and done through a window. We gave all our origenal copie... read complete review

We arrived at 1115 to get through security and try to get ahead. They turned us away until 1255. There were 4 others with appointments at 1300 for the one and only interviewer. We all turned in originals and then waited for our turn at a very non-personal booth just next to the other visa interview "check out" counters.
The gentlemen was nice but this was only his 2nd K-3 interview. He seamed overworked as I imagine most interviewers are. As I was present, most of the questions began to be answered by me, then directed to me. Our interveiw lasted about 50 minutes with some questions on our marriage needing to be approved by a supervisor, even though he had mentioned that everything was in order prior to asking. I had a mountain of evidence but they didn't really need to (want to) look at it.
We had travel plans for 25 DEC 07. The embassy uses DHL to deliver the visas. I had communicated to the embassy my request to exedite the visa and h... read complete review
