Review Topic: K1 Visa

**Since he had to travel we planned for a 2 day interview due to experiences from previous Ecuador VJ members.***

First of all, I arrived early at 7am 1 hour before my 8am appointment and there was already a line. There were a lot of people for tourist visas and other types of visas, so I lined up. There was security present outside. When I entered they made me remove everything they checked to make sure I didn't bring in anything other than the requested documents.

Once I entered they asked me if I applied for a tourist visa or for residence visa? I said for residence visa fiance K1 and they took me to a place with a woman at a window asking for each document. I gave her my passport, birth registration and divorce registration. She asked who is petitioning for you? They didn't ask me for financial support, or for other evidence of relationship. They told me to sit in the waiting room because they’re going to call you for the interview later.

Review Topic: K1 Visa

The consulate in Ecuador is still doing a two day interview process as of March 2023. She was the only person allowed into the consulate for the interview.

Day 1: My fiance arrived at 12 PM for her 12:30 interview. Once inside she submitted all the requested documents and they took her fingerprints. She was asked if she was single and free to marry, if she had ever lived in any other country outside of Ecuador, and if she had any kids or had been previously married. They then gave her a copy of the original I129F I submitted to USCIS and gave her an 8:45 AM appointment the next day, but told her to be there by 8:30. She was out of the consulate at 1:30.

Day 2: She arrived at 7:40 AM to a much longer line. There were a lot of people with the same appointment time so the wait was longer. We've been together for over 10 years so the first question they asked why we haven't gotten married yet and what made us decide to marry now. They then asked how we met, ho... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Overall very pleasant and timely experience! Very well organized and short waiting times. I was unable to attend and he went on his own. Just be sure to have all your documents ready and organized in a way that is quick for you to locate them!

Still doing a 2 day interview. This is what my fiance reported to me about the 2 days.

Day 1: Arrived early, took awhile to get in as many others showed up without the needed documents and slowed down the line. No one was particularly pleasant, but it all went smoothly. Asked to give various civil documents and proof of our continued relationship. Was given a pamphlet to take and look over, told what time to be back the next day for the interview, and given a complete copy of our original application to "look over". He was only asked who petitioned him and if he had a daughter. Neither the I-134 nor any financial documents were requested. Took about an hour.

Day 2: Arrived early and waited about 45 m... read complete review

The wait time was about 2.5-3 hours, once it was finally her turn, they asked her what my name was and age, then they proceeded to have her tell them the circumstances of how we met and came to be a couple. The interviewer said “no further questions, your visa has been approved”. Interview took 10 minutes most of the time was spent on waiting. Glad to say this leg of the journey is at its end. Thanks for all the answers from everyone. And good luck to those still waiting!
