Review Topic: K1 Visa

So thank god today is over lol
I got lost on the way to the MLC building from martin place not cause of the directions because im hopeless with directions and reading them lol
So once i got there u go to level 10 i asked the people in the front desk which lift i take and they said u can take any as long as u go to the 10th floor
Then u get out of the lift and u go through security they look at your passport and tick off your name for the interveiw , then they take your bag and you have to switch off your mobile and keep it with them.
They give u a card number for your bag to pick up after the interveiw is finished. Then u wait on the chair till there ready to take u up on the lift to the 59th floor MY EARS POPED!! Ouch !

Review Topic: K1 Visa

My interview was at 9am, and I didn't want to spend a night in Sydney so I flew down at 5am that day. Which meant getting up at 2:30am. I landed in Sydney and headed for the airport link train. I bought the $25 return pass, and headed for St James station, as that's the closest one to the MLC centre. It was roughly 15 minutes by train, the train was PACKED though!

The MLC Centre:

It's a short walk to the MLC centre - it's easy to spot. I went into the bottom floor and there was a guy sitting alone at a desk, and lots and lots of elevators in a big circle room. Basically you turn left the second you get in the door. and then it's the first elevators on the right. You press the button upto floor 10, then follow the signs to the Consulate. It's basically turn right and follow the building, it's Suite 1010.

I went in and showed my passport and appointment letter to the security guard. Who then took my bags (I had a handbag, and a bag of eviden... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

Well today was my big day and I have just arrived home from Sydney. I want to give a review in the hope it will help others, just as others' reviews helped me so very much.

Accommodation:
I read many people suggesting accommodation at Phillip St. Travelodge. I looked at the site and was not too impressed with the pictures so I looked around and happened upon Medina Classic Martin Place. It was cheaper this night ($165 total) and about 3-4 minutes walk to the MLC building. I arrived last night and walked into my room - I thought there had been a mistake. I expected a very basic studio room but what I got was a full 1 bedroom apartment. Complete with balcony, lounge room, full-sized kitchen, bedroom and of course bathroom. I was soooo impressed. I would highly recommend this establishment. The lady at the desk happily stored by bags post check out and she even printed me off about 12 pages from an email I needed to take to the consulate (free of charge, too).
