I arrived at the consulate at about 5am. There was already a huge line. When it was time to enter they seperated the women and the men before going though the security. We go in and saw the famous metal benches. They ask non immigrant visa applicants to sit to the right adn immigrant visa applicant to sit to the left. We were called to window 17 (after what seem likea ages) and they colleted all our documents that my fiancee was told to complete in the package. The girl was super nice and informative. She then told us to have a seat while we were called by one of the interviewing Officers. After a couple of hours we were called to window 21. I thought it was a good luck sign since my birthday is on the 21st. Little did I know that this was not my lucky day. So we go and this lady who could barely speak Spanish swears us in. She immediately starts to ask my fiancee questions adn was extremely nice to him and then it was my turn. As soon as she turned to me her whole demeanor changed. It... read complete review

First of all, reading all these posts comforted me in my time of panic before our interview and made me feel much more prepared for what was about to come so thank you to those that have written reviews!!
My fiance and I arrived at the embassy at about 5:15 am. There were maybe about 20 people in line ahead of us. By 6:00 all 4 lines were filled with people. There was some of the employees going through the lines and attaching a number to everyones paperwork. This is the number that you will go by for your entire process. They split the groups into men and women before going through security. You are not allowed cell phone or a list of other things so make sure you leave all of that in your car or at your hotel/ home. Once inside, we grabbed a seat on one of the benches. There is a little place where you can get drinks and food if your hungry. You are there a while so be sure to bring some extra money. Also, there is no air conditioning. Only large industrial fans so be mindful ... read complete review

We arrived at 5 am the line was short only about 9 couples in front of us. Of course the buscones tried to convince us something about wrapping pictures? but then I reminded Leni that they were not employees of the consulate. By 6 the line got pretty long and most people were there. Around 645 they started making the 2 lines one for women one for men they asked for our appointment letter and stapled our number to it (#166) we went thru security and found a seat on the benches. It brighter and more open in there than I expected which made it more comfortable. About 705 we were called to window 23 to give our documents that’s when despite my asking several time we found out he had the extracto form BC instead of the extensa. So the lady explained that we would still interview but he would need to return with the correct BC. I asked if she wanted the affidavit of support she did not. Then about a half hour later we were called by name and number to window 13 we had forgotten to give her... read complete review

So we had an interview date for August 3rd. My mom asked me to see whether I could do anything to expedite the process due to my dad's health problems. I contacted my congressman but did not feel confident that they were going to do anything - a young man called me and was insensitive toward the issues with my dad and did not sound on the ball at all. As further evidence of his incompetence, he left me a message on Thursday June 30th telling me that my fiance had an appointment on July 6th and that he should be getting something in the mail - we all know he's not going to get something in the mail that quickly and that's not enough time for the medical plus the weekend and July 4th holiday.
So anyways, a friend's mom handles visa issues for another congressman. She sent a letter directly to the consulate asking for the expedite. She told me that 9 times out of 10 they are not granted for family illness. But to our surprise, it was granted and she emailed me the r... read complete review
