My wife had a great experience with the consular staff in Sydney. She had coffee in the lobby before her interview. As described by others (keep in mind this is second hand info) you take a set elevators to the 10th floor where you go through security. You are than escorted to the top of the building where the consulate is located. All in all, the staff were very nice and only asked questions about us, for example how we met, where did we get married, etc.

Super easy -
Went inside the MLC centre passed some shops and hit the highest level I could go. Once there you're in another lobby, go into another lift and select level 10.
Once you arrive on level 10 you head over to the US consulate, asked to show your ID (passport) and your stuff is scanned like an airport. They then ask what documents you need to take with you to the interview, and you're able to take those.
Within minutes you're escorted by a policeman to another lift up to the interview.
Once you're on the interview level a nice man takes your passport again and buzzes you into the waiting area, you take the visa ticket.
Again, within 5 minutes you're called up and it seems all of the administrative processing is done, they take your documents on the checklist and for example confirm your US address. One thing they did ask me at this point was my fiance's phone number. I luckily know it off by heart, but the lady comme... read complete review

Writing this as reported by my fiance: His appointment was at 9 am.He didn't have to wait long. Security level was high. Interviewer was "friendly but efficient". He was asked a few questions such as how did you meet?, when?, have you been to the states? He was asked about the proposal, when we will get married?Also asked what I, the petitioner, did for a living.They talked briefly about my children.He thumbed through the papers quickly. (My fiance said he felt a little let down that it got only a glance considering all the agonizing work it took to put the packet together) He went in knowing he did not have police Certificate yet. Was told everything was in order pending the police clearance and was given instructions on how to sent it once it comes in. So basically a quick painless experience. He was in and out in about an hour. Still no Visa, but very close.

Hubby has a little drama with flying from Melb to Sydney on the morning of the interview, although we planned flights with the possibility of delays in mind. He was scheduled on the 7.35am Jetstar flight due to arrive at 9am and there was an issue with the plane and they were delayed about 30 minutes. No problem in the end he had plenty of time since his interview was not until 11am. If you have the money, it is worth staying in a hotel the night before so you don't have the stress if your flight gets delayed.
He took the train from the airport to the city from the domestic terminal and got off at the St James station. The train took 15 minutes.
He arrived and went through security with no dramas and he was allowed to take the CD with his medical results that some people have reported they couldn't take and had to come back down to get.
He got upstairs, took a number and waited to be called to the window where they looked at his paperwork an... read complete review
