Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

The interview at the consulate was a tough, long process. They really grilled her asking details about the marriage ceremony (where it took place, how many people attended, etc), my workplace, my family and siblings, whether she was going to work/study in the US, how we met. Her interview lasted from 8am to 1pm, and several people asked her questions. This was also the first time she had so much interaction with people with American accents (it's the consulate, so it's all Americans). On top of that she saw quite a few people leave crying, presumably because they were rejected. They don't allow cellphones, so there's no way she could contact me or anyone else while inside.
Anyway, she passed the interview, so that was a huge relief. But please don't underestimate the interview - it's not just a simple "Do you have all your documents? Ok, your visa's approved".

Review Topic: F-2A Visa

Hi

Well, I had a good experience. It was a short interview and CO just asked me these questions:
who is petitioning for you?
when did you get married ?
Do you have any children, do you have any pictures of your children ?

Other than that it was a general chat, like you've been to the US before right, I said yeah and then she said you'll get you passport back in about a week's time.

The CO was really nice and candid.

Because N.Delhi has a lot of rush of people for interviews, there is a lot of waiting, it took me 3.5 hours after I entered and I was the 2nd batch of people who entered at 8 am and even then, I had 38 people waiting ahead of me. So after fingerprinting, took another 3 hours to get to the pre-screener and then after that may be another 30-40 mins for the interview which may be last 5 mins. So i'll suggest may be carrying a book/magazine etc or you can pass your time by listening to others being... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

American Embassy New Delhi, Immigrant Visa Section employees are just too quick reply back. They also answer all of your question, which you have asked in your email. Even my petition was still pending with USCIS-CSC, Embassy staff answered my email with next step process. Now I am at National Visa Center and email the embassy to ask something, they respond back. They are much quicker and responsible to their duties than staff here in CSC.

Review Topic: K1 Visa

What can i say since everything on that day went perfect. My interview was scheduled at 9.00 AM in the morning. Since i did not submit my documents to VFS, it took a little longer for me to finish the first stage i.e. submitting the documents. Indian guy who collected the documents was very very friendly and very co-operative. I was inside the consulate by 9.15 AM and finished submitting the documents by 10.15 AM. Then i had to wait for an hour for the actual interview by VO. It started at 11.15 AM and lasted for about 45 minutes. Since i had very long time relationship with her it took 45 minutes to describe the entire thing. VO was also very friendly and made me feel very comfortable. All went well and i heard the golden words "Your visa has been approved and you will receive your passport in next 7 working days."

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

Firstly Sorry for the Delay in Review.

We had our Interview on 3rd of Sep @ 8:30AM in Chennai.
We stayed at the Rain Tree hotel on Anna Salai, about 3-4 KMs Away from the Embassy any auto would drop you at the embassy for Rs20 – 30.
We reached embassy at 8:10 and were immediately asked to stand in a Line outside the building by the security guard, security guards make groups of people (in a line) outside the embassy to make the security check and entry into the building easy.
Please make sure you have no Luggage/Handbags.. Only allowed items into the embassy are file or papers or Albums (no DVD’s Cell phones etc).
At 8:25AM they asked my wife get into the building (security female checked all papers etc etc).
Once into the building she was asked to be seated in a separate hall(Separate from H1 visa etc), at around 9:10AM an Indian lady called her name and checked all the papers and asked her to wait for the CO to call out her name... read complete review
