I had my interview on March 3rd 2020.
In Frankfurt, you have to wait outside first before you can go through security. I waited for around 50 minutes, which was fine, because it was sunny and I had a warm jacket and a scarf with me. So you should bring warm clothing and an umbrella, just in case it starts raining. I had to go to the left line first and I needed to show them my passport and they gave me a waiting number. Then they told me to line up for security at the end of the right line.
I went through security and they told me I couldn’t take my x-ray cd with me, which my doctor told me to bring to the interview. But it wasn’t a problem, since they just gave me a number and kept it for me in exchange.
You can’t bring any sorts of electronics so leave you phone or laptop in the car/hotel/at home.
After passing security, I went on a small path from the security building to the actual consulate building, where a woman at a reception... read complete review

In general, the process at the embassy is pretty self-explanatory - you will know what to do if you listen and follow the directions from the people at the consular 
I had my interview early in the morning and I was there 20 min before the appointment. First advice: During this time of the year, bring warm clothes because you will be waiting outside for a while before you get to go inside. I checked in with my passport + appointment confirmation and got a ticket with a number on it (keep this ticket on you). I was then asked to go to the next line (still outside) where I waited to enter the first building. This is the security check. (No phones - leave them at home/in the car!) After security, I walked to the main building.
In the main building, I went to the receptionist that told me to go directly to a booth. Notice that the main building is split into an "immigration" and "non immigration" area. For K1, everything happens in the immigration ... read complete review

I had my interview at 10 am and went to the embassy around 9.30 am. I first had to go to the left line for the Visa applicants and someone crossed my name from a list with all the people that had interviews today. After that I got a number and had to go to the right line for the U.S. citizens. I waited about 30 minutes and was called in to go through a security check (I didn’t had my phone or anything with me that wasn’t allowed so i went through without any problems). The officers told me to go to the next building to check in. There I had to tell why I’m there and had to go to the window with the number 22. When I went to the window there was a man that told me what’s gonna happen and kept my passport with my file that I sent in after the package 3 and told me to sit down until my number will be on the screen. After maybe 15 minutes a very nice lady called me and went in German (English is possible too) through the most important parts from my DS-160 with ... read complete review

My appointment was on February 18, 2020 at 9:30am. I went to the Consulate at 8:45am. My fiancé came with me and was able to go into the Consulate with me (they were very nice about it). He got a little card with an A on it to show that he can come in with me. I was waiting in line for 30 minutes before entering the little security area (like an airport security area). At the reception I got a piece of paper explaining the process and where I had to go etc. Everyone was super nice. When it was time for my interview the women made take an oath to tell the truth and told my fiancé that it’s fine for him to be there, but that he should just listen and not answer, since it was my interview .
She then proceeded to ask me the following questions:
- When are you planning to travel to the US?
- Who is your sponsor?
- When and where did you meet?
- Did you have a continuous relationship since then?
- Was either of you previously married?... read complete review

The interview was scheduled for 7:30 today, we arrived at 7 and were first in line. At 7:30 they started checking people's paperwork. We went to the window outside, got the sticker for the passport and our number, and were sent through security. Security was quick, only took a couple of minutes. It took longer for people who wore belts, brought their phones, or anything else they tell you not to bring. Once through security we walked to the main building and spoke with the person at the front desk who directed us to the cashier at window 22 to pay our final fees (since we applied DCF). The man at the cashier booth was friendly, took my husband's passport and put it with his file, then told us to take a seat and wait for our number to flash on the screen to know which window to go to. A few (maybe 10) minutes later we were called up to window 21, where the caseworker (a pleasant German lady) went over the basic info on the DS-260 with my husband, then said for us to take a seat and we'd... read complete review
