I went to the interview equipped with all the required documentation.
I had read that I shouldn't bring a bag which I didn't.
I didn't bring a cell phone nor a mp3 player etc.
I went through security *check*
Was directed to the visa processing centre.
Once inside took a number and sat down.
The wait was long (2 hours or so). A few rounds of submitting forms, then sitting down waiting again, then submit some forms again etc.
Then it was time for the actual interview, it took less than 10 minutes. The officer asked 8 questions then said I was done, and congratulated me.

Interview went well, missing an original document, so once we send that to them, then we'll get the visa in the mail. Dublin always mails back visa and the documents, its never given the day of interview.
They went through documents, asked hubby how we met, and enjoyed the entertaining story that he gave them. They asked for pics, and they were given to them. It was more of a conversation than an interrogation. They asked him what he would be doing in the US.
The only thing is that Dublin asks for a 12 by 14 envelope, but since they the consulate never sent a letter, we didnt know the size of envelope. So everyone take heed go with a 12 by 14 envelope with 8 euros worth of stamps!!
All in all, a great experience, and looking forward to finally having him here with me for good!!

Great experience with the embassy. From the very beginning, the security were very friendly and lightened our mood before we went into the stressful environment of the processing room. Luckily we were first in the door and got our applications and other documents submitted within 15 minutes of entering the building. We waited about 5 minutes before being call to the cashiers desk to pay the $400 processing fee.
While waiting for the actual interview, we chatted with the other applicants that were there, they only had 7 or 8 applicants to process that afternoon. Obviously everyone was nervous, after all life changing decisions were being made behind a glass screen. The other applicants were friendly and all of us were having one big conversation about our various situations and how the applications had gone for us so far.
The final step was the actual interview, the lady that conducted it was extremely friendly and it was more of a chat that anything else,... read complete review

I got to the embassy at 13:00, there was a little queue at the gate and it was so cold outside the guard let us wait inside while everyone was processed.
When i got into the embassy i was given a ticket and asked to wait. I was 5th in the queue.
After a short amount of time i was called to a window and asked to give the cashier the postal order for 91.70
I sat down again.
About 10 minutes passed and i was called up again and i had to hand in my police reports, birth certificate (& photocopy), affidavit of support, medical papers and DS-156/k. I was a little nervous about not having brought the x-ray as everyone else had but they had no interest in it.
They asked me did i have the stamped addressed envelope (which by the way was never mentioned in any correspondence - i read about it on this website!). I showed her what i had brought and she informed me it was not large enough. They needed one that was 12"x14". As it turned out,... read complete review

I wish to Declare that the information i am about to provide in this review is true and authentic to the best of my knowledge. However, i do not take any responsibility; whether for hurting somebody's feelings through my review or causing un-intentional offense. I further do not intend to misguide anyone so please do not relate it to a holy book. It is not a State Department's policy on something, just a review. So relax and enjoy reading.
Interviewed on 16th November 2009 at US Embassy in Dublin.
1pm interview time means exactly 1pm. Do not attempt to reach there early. Try risk it and face standing outside in the cold.
;-)
Staff extremely particular about documentation requirements. Make sure at least 10 times that you have all your documents with you.
I had to run out twice, once to get more US visa size pictures (which were returned within 2 minutes of my submitting them at the window, apparently they were not needed in the first place), and secon... read complete review
