Our interview result was APPROVED, however the experience was not so enjoyable. Our advice is to bring only the documents asked for in the instructions provided on the consulate website. Bringing additional documents just makes it confusing. In our case, my fiancee applicant had to go back by herself and submit the documents and it made it difficult for her since I had prepared everything and we had more evidence and documentation than was necessary. Another piece of advice is that if you have no children there is no reason to come early as all the applicants with children are allowed inside first and this puts you near the back of the line regardless of when you showed up. Actually, this is a nice thing for the applicants with children. Also, wear light clothes as the room where you will wait is very crowded with applicants for tourist visas and the temperature was very uncomfortable. The interview itself was good as the interviewer used both Portuguese and English. We were asked... read complete review

I got to the consulate with my wife, they gave us a paper with a number, then we were admitted to the consulate and waited in a room until everyone got their documents checked with a consulate employee. Then they started getting fingerprints and reviewing and returning our original documents sent to the NVC. After that they started calling one by one by name for the interview, with a 10 minutes gap between each interview. We were the last ones. The only question we were asked was how did we meet. We were approved! We took around 4 hours in the whole process.

My interview was really nice and easy, the Consul was really kind, didn't ask too many questions. Actually, this is what he asked me:
How did you two meet?
For how long have you been dating?
When was the first time you spoke?
When are you planning to move to the US?
It didn't take more than 5 minutes, as far as I remember, really nice.

My fiancee experience was very good. She actually got there a little late for her interview because they got stuck in traffic, but besides that everything went fine! Like everyone else she brought a bunch of pics, letters, e-mais, etc. but nothing was requested as evidence besides all the paperwork that they ask you to fill out. She stayed there for about two hours between doing the paperwork check, fingerprints, etc. The interview itself only took 5-10 minutes maximum. They asked her my name, where did I live, my type of work, etc! and them said that the visa was approved!!!! One advice that can be helpfull is fill out the paperwork but do NOT sign it!! You have to sign it in front of the Consul of the Embassy during the interview!! You can get both police certificates on line and print them at you convinience!! Hope this review will be helpfull to you guys!!!

Our appointment was at 7:15 am, but we arrived 5 minutes late, and it wasn't a problem. Everyone else was scheduled for the same time. We had to fill out a label for their documentation when we arrived with a man sitting out in the room. He was helpful throughout our time at the consulate.
After this everyone went into a small room to submit their forms and the affidavit of support. However, there was a power failure in the middle of this process and the people forgot to call us into the room until we approached them and asked why everyone else had gone through the process and we hadn't. The lady apologized and called us in. She was ok to deal with.
The actual interview was very simple and easy. We were asked to swear to tell the truth, then describe how we met. He was very nice, and approved us after about 5 minutes, maybe less. He didn't even ask to see the evidence of our continued relationship.
Overall, we spent from 7:20 am to 1 pm at t... read complete review
