Today (22nd Jan) myself and son had our K1 & k2 interviews. We live in Dublin so only had to leave at 12:20 (interview was at the what seems to be standard 1pm time). We arrived at the embassy at 12:40pm, got dropped of around the corner and walked around. Plenty of parking on streets surrounding embassy. I got to the embassy itself at 12:45pm and went to the window expecting to have to wait a few more minutes, they let us go through the door to the right, where you enter a airport like security screening. They asked for my passport and then for me to empty belongings into tub to go through screening. I then had to leave my phone (switched off) in locker to which they give you a key for when your leaving to collect.
I then exited that area and went up to main building, up the ramp on right hand side. Where you are greeted by another member of security and asked what your purpose is (passport or visa). You then sit and wait to be called to a window in front. There are se... read complete review

Hi Folks,
I’m just going to give you quick synopsis of my experience with the US Embassy.
I had my interview January 5th 2015 at 1pm. (1pm is the standard time for any one by the looks of it and generally on a Monday with a K-1 (just my experience)). I was originally scheduled for January 12th 2015 at 1pm but I chanced my arm and dropped them an email (dublincons@state.gov) December 15th 2014 to see if I could get in sooner and they rang me on December 16th approving my request. (I’m as lucky as a black cat, so I’ve been told)
I got to the Embassy about 12.30pm and parked the car near the embassy (plenty of space to park - €2.90 per hour on-street parking – I threw in €5.80 for two hours). I waited in the car until 12.50pm and then went to the Embassy.
I was asked for ID and went through standard airport security screening, everything out of pockets and belt off etc. Then they asked me to put my keys and phone (electronics) in a... read complete review

Had my interview today (December 8th 2014 @ 1PM)
Arrive around 12:20pm with my husband (The USC) was told to leave and come back at 12:50pm, we went across to the cafe called (Embassy Grill) had a coffee and then went back to the Embassy.
We were asked who was being interviewed, what type of Visa and then proceeded trough the airport style security. I had a minimal amount of things in my purse which included earphones, they took my keys, phone, earphones and lip balm and put them in a small locker and gave me the key. They allowed me to keep my purse with me and my folder of documents.
Was sent up a ramp to the building itself and was greeted by a very nice security officer, he asked again what visa type, immigrant or non-immigrant, we went sent to the immigrant waiting side. There were only 2 other people waiting so it went fairly quick. Got called up to the first window after waiting 10 minutes or so, asked for my medical results, passpo... read complete review

Had my K1 Visa interview on Monday, November 10th at 1pm.
I drove up to Dublin and parked on a side street, just to the left of the front entrance of the Embassy. Plenty of on street parking for 2.90 an hour. I threw 5 euro into the machine and made my way to the entrance at 12.45pm.
You need to approach the front window entrance and state the reason you are there (Visa Interview). You will then be granted access to the security area. Security screening is similar to airport screening - I had left everything I didn't need in the car so I just had my car keys and paperwork.
Once through security you make your way to the Embassy building itself where you will receive a number and wait to be called. I was called to three separate windows in the following order:
1) To submit passport, original birth cert, medical cert, Garda Cert and Affidavit of Support
2) To submit postal order as payment
3) The final interview where the i... read complete review

I had my appointment for 1pm, arrived at the embassy at 12:45pm no line, and went straight into the embassy. Was given a number and waited about 15mins to be called, gave the postal order with the Visa fee, and sat down again. After about 10 mins was called up again, the initial consulate person asked for my documentation, she asked for a tax return from 2013, which I did not have, she said the case would be suspended until it was provided but I was to sit and wait and a consulate official who would talk to me. After a further wait of about 15mins, I was called up to be interviewed. The consular official this time, asked some questions, where we met, where we will live, asked to see the additional information about the relationship, photos, emails, timeline and list of all the times we met. He said the tax returns were not required, we'd supplied enough information. I swore an oath and that was it. Time taken about 50 mins. The interview was quick, and the official who interviewed me w... read complete review
