Well, I finally had my K1-Visa Interview today in Frankfurt.
The appointment was scheduled for 7.30 a.m.
Therefore I had to arrive already one day in advance to make it that early.
I stayed in the hotel Friedberger Warte, which is right behind the embassy.
I probably arrived there by 7 a.m. and was number three in that line.
They opened up the building by 7.30 though.
The lady at the window asked for the appointment letter and my passport. Then she crossed my name out from a list and gave me a number.
Then I had to go to another line. One officer asked for this little sheet with the number on it again and then the first three were allowed to enter the building.
Then the procedure started. We had to take off the jackets and put them in a box with all the rest of our carry-on's. Then we had to go through the metal detactor, like at the airport. All of those guys were pretty nice. One of them took my u... read complete review

My Interview was scheduled for 17th of October 8.30 AM. I was prepared my self with all the documents like Birth certificate, police certificate, affidavit, and visa payment slip etc. I reached the consulate at 8.25 and there were few visitors in the line.
So the process start when you reach the counter, I showed the officer my invitation letter and the passport, he search in his appointment book and figure out my name in the list then he gave me a computer generated number.
Then you go through the security check leading to the big waiting room. The big waiting room have two parts one is for the US citizen and consulate special services (I guess the services like DCF) and the big portion is for the visa and immigration service, here you have to wait until your number get called.
I think you always going to get called to the window 23 for the first time. I was get called with in 5 minutes for the first time to the window number 23 and the la... read complete review

hotel info:
there is a hotel across the street from the consulate but it costs about 99€. if you want a cheaper hotel but still in walking distance: try hotel alleenhof or pension stella. I stayed at hotel alleenhof and walked (slowly) about 20min to the consulate. it cost 55€.
when to arrive:
I was there at 6.30am and was the first one to be there but around 6.45am there werea already 7 people that joined me. it was very cold to stand out there and wait.
the usual procedure:
1) at a window outside you have to show your passport and appointment letter but they never wantet to see my appointment letter. they give you a number.
2) security check
3) large waiting area with 23 windows and displays that call people by their number to the windows.
4) the first window you will be called to is always window 23, there they want your passport, proof that you payed your visa-fee, photo, and they give you a return envel... read complete review

Nach nur ca. 2 Stunden im Konsulat (ohne Wartezeit für den Einlass) wurde mein Visum genehmigt und es war einfacher als gedacht.
Also um 6:40 bin ich beim Konsulat angekommen und es waren schon 4 Leute vor mir da, aber ich war der K1-Visum Antragsteller und dadurch ging es wohl auch relativ fix.
Am Eingang musste ich dann gegen 7:20 Uhr Pass und Einladung vorzeigen und bekam meine W Nummer.
Daraufhin ging es durch die Security - Ich habe gesehen, dass allen die Kosmetika abgenommen worden sind, aber ich selber hatte nur das Nötigste dabei.
Dann bin ich über den Hof zum Hauptgebäude gelaufen und sollte hinten im großen Saal platz nehmen.
Ca. 8:10 wurde ich dann zum Schalter 23 gerufen (die W Nummer wird angezeigt mit dem betreffenden Schalter) und musste Pass, Zahlungsbestätigung und 1 Passbild aushändigen. Außerdem habe ich den großen mit 4,25€ zu frankierendem Umschlag ausgehändigt bekommen. Da habe ich dann di... read complete review
