Hi all
here's a piece of our experience ;-)
we arrived at the US embassy around 12.15PM however they didn't let us in until 12.45PM. The guards were all pretty friendly but then most of them were portuguese :-D. No surprise there!
We got the number A111 and were the first couple to go in.
They started a little later than 1PM. We were first called to window 2 to give in our Interview letter and the passport. Then we waited until a little after 2PM and were called to window 11 to exchange any documents we wanted, give the chronopost envelope and the medical results. The woman at the window was pretty cheerful and spoke brazilian to me even though I said english would be fine. Hint on the chronopost envelope: does not fit with the padding so remove it prior to go to the window and you can also fill in your address and name so it saves some time. Besides if you write the info at home you will be sure you haven't made any mistakes. There w... read complete review

My interview was scheduled at 1:00 and I arrived around 12:20 but had to wait an extra 15 minutes as I was a little bit early. I finally got in through the gate after handing my appointment letter and my passport, all the guards were very nice. I took a ticket for Immigrant Visas, my number was A 115. I had to wait around one hour before being called for the first time at the window 5 where I was asked to hand my letter and passport. I sat down again for another hour or so and was called again at the same window with the same lady. I handed her all the papers this time, she made me sign a few forms and explained how to file for AOS and how long everything would take. She told me to sit down again and I was called about 20 minutes later at the window 10 for my interview. It didn't last very long, she typed a few things on her computer, asked me how me and my fiancée met? Then she looked at our pictures and asked me to name one of the member of her family and that was it. She said I wou... read complete review

Man that was fast!
So I just had my K-1 interview at the Paris Consulate.
Arrived at 12.45, a nice lady gave me the appropriate ticket and off I go to wait.
My appointment was at 1pm, so when my watch turned 1.10pm and I hadn't seen any movement on the display, I was starting to worry it would take hours.
But not at all.
First time called: drop your ticket and convocation letter to a nice lady, probably French or with no accent at all. 30 seconds, done!
Go back to waiting seats for 10-15 minutes, then same booth (and same lady) to drop the police and birth certificate, DS-156, 156K and 157, medical results, visa fee receipt, 5x5 photos, etc etc...
The lady was very delighted to see that all my documents were 99% fullfilled, including the address on the Chronopost envelope.
She said that most of people are just waiting to be at the booth to fill the papers...
Anyhow, she made me sign the DS-156, took my fingerprints and sen... read complete review

First I need to explain a little the situation.
I received Packet 4 on Wednesday the 8th telling me to go at the Embassy for the interview on the 14th! Short notice knowing that August in France is acting dead! So first thing I did is called the 3 doctors to try to get an appointment for Monday the 13th. Unfortunately, they were all gone on vacation!! Two of them were coming back on the 14th (date of my interview) and one is coming back on the 27th! I couldn't reach any of them! Luckily Doctor Jolly gave her cell number and ask to send her an email for immigration appointment. That's what I did. She replied to me the next day telling me to come in on the 14th at 9am!! She is really great!!! But my bad luck was still following me as the blood test and chest XRay had to be done to the hospital she works for but they are enable to get the results before 2 days! Once again she was wonderful as she said the Embassy an email to let them know about the situation. I just had to give he... read complete review
