- Left the Hotel Casa Sarita a bit late, approx 6:20AM. Our appointment 7:30AM.
- Got to the embassy approx 6:30AM, 10 minute cab ride, Cost 4,400 COL pesos, but I gave the cab driver a 5,000 COL peso bill.
- Huge line or lines outside the embassy when we arrived.
- Thanks to all here in VisaJourney, we knew where to go. We walked on the left side, grassy area, straight to the front, to line 3 which had 4 people waiting.
- After a couple of questions, the lady placed a small green stickers on our shirts with K1 hand written on it.
- Approx 6:38AM we went through security. We did not bring cell phones. X-ray machine, metal detector, take everything out of pocket, etc.. Just like going through security at an airport, except, we did not have to take our shoes off.
- After going inside, into the waiting area, we were told by the attendant to proceed straight to the front of Window 7.
- We were not given a check list by this attendant. We sho... read complete review

- Salimos del Hotel Casa Sarita un poco tarde, 6:20 AM aprox. Nuestra cita era a las 7:30 AM.
- Llegamos a la embajada aproximadamente las 6:30 AM, 10 minutos en taxi, costo 4.400 pesos COL, pero le di al taxista un billete de 5.000 pesos COL.
- Enorme línea o líneas frente a la embajada cuando llegamos.
- Gracias a todos aquí en VisaJourney, sabíamos a dónde ir. Entramos en el lado izquierdo, zona de césped, directamente a la parte delantera, a la línea 3, que tenía 4 personas esperando.
- Después de un par de preguntas, la dama coloca pegatinas pequeñas de color verde en nuestras camisas con K1 escrita a mano en él.
- 6:38 AM aprox pasamos por la seguridad. No llevamos teléfonos celulares. Habia Máquina de rayos X, detector de metales, hay que sacar todo lo que se lleve en los bolsillos, etc. Al igual que pasar por seguridad en un aeropuerto, con la excepción, no hay que quitarse los zapatos.
- Después de entrar, en la sala de ... read complete review

My wife arrived to the Embassy at about 6:30 AM for her 8:30 AM Interview Appointment. As many people have previously described in their reviews, she went to line 3 which is for immigration and was asked to show the Interview letter along with her passport to let her in. Following this, she was instructed to turn off her cell phone/electronic devices and the she went through some sort of security check point (somehow like the ones you find at an US airport). Not to long after she was given a green sticker with a big number 3 on it and then she was called by a Colombian lady who asked her for the medical results, passport and photos. She then did some sort of like a pre-interview in which basically she confirmed her name, place and date of birth, how long she has been married and who was petitioning her.
she also asked my wife for her email address and she looked it her up in the CSC site (which is a website you have to register for to arrange for the delivery of your visa) and ... read complete review

So, my interview was at 8 am but I was there at 6 and went direct to the line 3 where there was nobody but me, at 6:15 people at the embassy began to work organizing lines and checking the letter from NVC and letting us to enter into the building, I was actually the first first getting into the place...
Then a girl (Colombian) told me to wait in the "office" number 6 (but it doesn't matter which one, green numbers are for immigrants, blue are the other type of visas, the color in the number is huge so is easy to see where you will be all the time.
Ok, at 7 am they begin to work inside of the embassy so at 7 o'clock I was talking with the girl (Colombian) She asked for what NVC said:
- Medical examinations (Enveloped)
- 2 Pictures 5x5 with the complete name on them (advice: use the right pen and do it before the interview)
- RECENT police certificate
- Passport
- Letter from NVC
She asked what was the longes... read complete review

Mi experiencia fue la siguiente:
