Average experience prior to the interview, processed paperwork, everything checked out fine, pretty much like all the other reviews. We were near the end of interviews, saw most people leaving the interview with smiles. Very nerve racking experience for everyone, I would rate this as one of the more stressfull experiences in my life!
I would say for me it was very important to be here with my fiance, and I'm lucky I could be there with her. I can imagine the stress upon a person alone, I give all the people who have done this alone very high respect.
The interview was like a bad dream, as soon as we walked in she started barking at my fiance for the number (ticket they give you), really putting us both in shock! Then the biometrics she was visibly agitated the way my fiance was putting her fingers on the screen, then immediately started in on the questions...
Most of the questions had to do with a tourist visa we applied for in Recife about a year previous, we ... read complete review

The Interview went very smooth, she did not need half of the documents I sent her as they did not even look at them after 6 questions, they said congratulations, we have approved your visa, Also they do look at this web site... and one of the gals there said she had seen our picture on Visa Journey. She was very nervous last night and could not sleep because she was worried about the interview, I told her all would go well and to trust in god. She was very excited to tell me the good news.

I was very happy with our review experience. I was 7.5 months pregnant at the time and everyone at the consulate was extremely accommodating. Just make sure that you do your part. Make sure that you have ALL of your required paperwork...and even more if you can provide it. If you're not sure whether or not you need it, bring it anyway. If they don't need it, they will give it back. Read all of the instructions carefully on the forms. Everything went smoothly for us because I made sure that I had EVERYTHING that they could possibly request. The actual interview was very pleasant. She could obviously see that we were in a true relationship (considering my pregnancy). She basically just asked my fiance how he met me and what he planned to do in the US. She was very friendly and encouraging. Not at all what I was expecting. Basically, for a positive outcome, do the following:
**Arrive on time(get there a bit early if you can, the line will get long but everyone is there for differen... read complete review

We arrived @ 6am, 3rd in line. K-1s line up by the door. We entered @ 715am and went upstairs to the waiting room. The assistant in the room had us organize our papers and checked them. Then we were called into an interview booth for an officer to review the papers. This was not the interview.javascript:emoticon(' ')She gave us back some papers and the our # and told us to go sit and wait. We waited another 20 mins for the real interview.
INTERVIEW:
A nice young woman greeted us and asked ChaCha to sign & swear. She asked about 8 questions, mostly about our relationship. Unfortunately, I didn't include my tax info with the I-134. So i had to email it to them. Otherwise APPROVED!
Total time: 2 hours
Word to the wise: Relax, dont stress, and be patient. As long as your love is real and your paperwork is correct (and presentjavascript:emoticon(' ') you will have no problems.

This is going to be a short review, as I was not there for the interview and is based on what my wife told me...
Wife and kids got to the embassy around 6:45am and there were some people there, not many. At 7:45am sharp they were aloud inside. Once inside, the people that was going fot a CR-1 Visa got in a different line then the K-1 people... then, a very nice lady told them how to organize the documents...they have to be in a specific order. My wife and kids were the very last ones for the CR-1 interviews... they left the embassy around 11:45am
Only questions she was asked, were:
Where did we meet.
How many times have I visited her?
When did we marry?
after the last question the officer said to her with a smile " your visas are approved, congratulations"
They did not ask her for any documents or pictures, even though she took about 100 pages of documents and about 40 pictures.
She ... read complete review
