This is second hand information. My fiance arrived at the Paris Embassy at 1pm. He waited maybe 20 minutes before being called to a window. He said it was very stressful because there are 20 windows in the room and various numbers are being called all the time by an electronic board. He said it went very quickly...no time to read a book or anything. He was called to a window and he gave all the financial documents. No one requested any proof or evidence of the relationship.
When he was called for the interview, he talked to a very stern and serious older lady - he described her as 'judge-like'. No real questions about our lives except 'how did you meet?'...'how much quality time have you spent with her kids?'.
Then she interrogated him pretty intensely about my two previous divorces and 2 children. She made it very clear to him this is a serious matter in a new married life and that our lives will not be easy at all. He said she was very authoritative in her discussions w... read complete review

My interview was scheduled at 1pm. I arrived a little ealier, around 12:45pm.
I was called at the first booth : A man took my convocation letter and checked my passport.
At the second booth: A lady took all of my documents, my passport and the Chronopost envelope. She also took my fingerprints. She asked me some questions:
"- When did you meet?
- What does your fiance do for living?
- What do you do for living?
- When do you plan on getting married?
- Are my parents coming to the wedding?
- Have you met his family?
[...]"
She didn't ask for any extra proof of ongoing relationship. She told me how lucky I am because I'll live in a ski area (my fiancé lives in Vail, Colorado). She explained the process, what we have to do after we get married. She told me about the AoS, the Social Security Card, about having to leave France in less then 6 month, getting married in 90 days,... She said if everything goe... read complete review

I got to the Embassy at 12.45 pm.
There where like 20 ppl in the waiting room
5 min after i took my number, I got called to the first booth : Took the number, cut it in half, took my convocation letter and checked my passport
1 hour and a half later, I got called to the same booth : She was very nice. Asked for all the papers, joked about how they give the 2kg Chronopost letters stuffing for those who wanna change their babies, and told me how lucky I am to live in Dinard :P
30 min later, I got called by the consul : very serious old lady. She asked me 100 questions :

My interview was scheduled at 1pm, I arrived a bit earlier, I'd say the best is to be there at 12:45. It was actually very boring, 30 to 40mns between each booth (3 in total) so I spent 2 hours in total.
Interview lasted less than 5mns, I had to sign the two last papers, and I answered 4 questions:
- What does your fiance do for a living?
- What do you do?
- What do you plan to do there?
- Where will you be living?
My interview was on December 30th, and it was obvious they all wanted to leave because the Consulate was closing for New Year, so it seems I had a "fast forward" process (except for the waiting). As it was said previously, the staff is professional but not so friendly. But the Consul said my visa should arrive in the mail in 10 days or so. Et voilà !
