Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

We arrived at the U.S. Embassy in Rio at 6:00am. We asked a guard (Daniel) for directions and as it happened, he was stationed at the entrance for immigrant visas. He was cordial and talkative, and stayed with and talked to us for 45 minutes, until his shift ended.

Nobody else arrived until about 6:30am. There's a lanchonete directly across the street where you can grab a snack if need be. Since there were two of us, we took turns. The lanchonete opens about 6:30am, by the way.

The tourist visa line grows pretty rapidly. Guards begin to multiply and set up signs around 6:30am to 6:45am, but largely ignore you. Around 7:00am-ish 4-5 guards in red vests come out and begin checking documents in the tourist visa line. Immigrant visas: wait! The tourist visa line began moving and entering before ours - which was frustrating given we'd been there longer and we were, naturally, stressed.

I got there at 7:15 am, at the side door of the consulate (just for immigrant visas) there was a woman that check our pictures, the mail confirming the date of the interview, and gave us a watchword.
After that we went to a room upstairs just for immigrant visas.
There the same woman checked our documents, and put it on what they say it ´s the sequence the consulate requires.
That done, we waited to be called for the trial of the pile of documents and forms, after checking all the docs, the woman behind the window, tells you to wait for the interview.
They call your watchword, but in a random sequence, so if your number it´s 1 you can be either the first, the last, or in the middle...
I was the forth to be called, and it took 3 minutes for her to say that the visa was approved, she only asked where we met, how we met, how long I lived in usa, and how we got ... read complete review
