Interviewed completed and approved! I have read many different reviews and I will make some comments on our interview. Our interview was Oct 7,2010. We were one of the first couples on the new system. There are some flaws in the new system still. One, you have to pay in CASH, no credit cards even though the new letter states you can. There is an ATM in the same building but you will have to go out and recheck with the security. The other main issue was that even though the letter does not say you have to bring the DS-156, you should bring it, we were asked for it. Also, we were told that no cell phones and large bags were allowed, however, there were so many individuals with large bags and purses and one lady had a phone and they made her turn it off. We did not take anything in but we just wanted to report to you all what we saw.

The rest of the process went well with the new process. We had an 8:30 am appt and we were there at 8:00 am, only two couples in front of... read complete review

I am so happy to be able to do this review. My consulate interview was schedualed for Oct. 5, but the medical for Oct. 6. I thought this may pose a problem, but it didnt. I also thought the best I would get would be the blue slip because I wouldnt have all my documents. These were just my personal expectations.
I arrived at the consualte at 12.40, my interview was for 1pm.
I entered the little lobby, put my things into the bins, they go through everything. Flip through every page, in the purse, nothing is left untouched. They are looking for sealed envelopes at this time, so if you have your medical, which is sealed, leave that out for them to find easily. Then you go through the security thing and retrieve your things. Up the stairs, through the door, and are greeted by more security. They ask why youre there, say K1 interview, and they get the elevator for you. Up you go, the officer will pass you off to another officer and through another security thingy you g... read complete review

It didn't take me long, approx. 10min. The consul was from California, and she recognized the pictures we sent them. She did not give me a hard time.

We had a pretty good experience at our interview.
We stayed at the Hyatt Regency. We could see the consulate from our hotel room & when we were in the waiting room at the consulate we could see the hotel from there. Very close!
We got in line at about 6:45 am & there was 2 others in line already. Met some very nice people in line. It made the time go pretty quick! Just after 7:30 the guard opened the door for us & took our passport & interview letter with him. He let us in in 2 groups at a time. We went through security with no problems & they told us to go down the stairs & wait in the waiting room there until another guard came to get us. After a few minutes a guard came down the elevator & took us (letters A-E) up to the 19th floor. The guard reminded me of Lurch from Adams Family. Made me giggle. Lurch then told us to sit & wait for our name to be called.
Once I got called, I went to window 9. The lady behind the glass didn't like window 9 so she mo... read complete review
