Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

Interview was held on July 23, 2012

We arrived in Rio on the day before the interview. We stayed at the Hotel Atlantico. Very nice hotel but a little pricey. Was in walking distance to the Embassy as there was no way we wanted to fight traffic, parking and have any hassles in getting there the day of. As an FYI, the hotel does not offer any parking. If you drive there you will need to park at an underground parking facility but is close by the hotel.

We arrived around 6:00 am the day of the interview and waited at the back entrance to the embassy. The tourist visa line was very long but the immigrant visa line had about 8 people at around 07:00 am.

One of the officials came out and checked off my wife and son's name from his checklist. After about 10 minutes we went through the door and metal detectors. Then we went to the second floor seating area. Another official then gave instructions as to filling out some paperwork in order to pr... read complete review

My experience at the Consulate in Rio de Janeiro was really good! Things worked out much better than I expected it to be. I'm impressed!

The consulate is well located in downtown Rio. I got there at 6:05 am and there were 3 people on the k1/cr1 line already. At around 7 am a young guy gave us a little form, and led us inside to the second floor of the building where there was a waiting room. He passed around another form to fill up. As I was the first one to finish up, I went to the guy's desk and he put my paperwork in order, and told me to wait until I was called to a booth. There, a nice brazilian lady checked all my forms and documents, and gave me a receipt for me to pay the visa fee. After a few minutes, I was called to room number 3 where the inverview took place. There, this very pretty and nice lady said good morning in portuguese and just asked me 4 very simple questions in portuguese and said that she was going to approve my visa and good luck in the USA! I wa... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

We arrived in RJ on sunday and stayed in Ibis Santos Dumont .. it was good hotel and close to the Dr Joaquim and consulate ... On Tuesday we were finally ready to go to consulate with all the documents and got there around 5:30 AM .. waited till 7:05 so they open the door .. went through X ray .. had to fill up some papers and had a pre interview to check the documents,passports,finger prints.. After that we paid the Visa fee R$492,00 and then waited upstairs for the interview ... around 9:00 AM .. The consul called my name .. and we got inside the room .. and the was the easier part ... 3 questions ... Where did you meet him ? When do you intend to marry ? Did you live with him in the US for how long ? ... after that she said .. Im approving your visa .. congratulations .. and we said thank you a lot of times .. and went to pay the Sedex at the post office outside .. We had a good experience ... The consul was very very nice .. she was so polite and calm ..
