Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

The Consulate needed to verify my I-864EZ. I forgot to give my wife my last 3 earning statements to bring with her. Also, they asked for an original offer letter for work. My offer letter was a digital copy and therefore had a digital signature, which caused more delay. My wife brought back the copy the next day and she had to explain the situation of the offer letter. Apparently everything went OK and she received the visa about a week later.

10/17/11 Interview.

Arrived 40 min early for a 9:30 appointment. Surprisingly, no line at the security screening but once inside, there were some people waiting. Was given a number and told to put the required documents in a clear folder given by the receptionist. Since we had already mailed most of the documents, the only thing we turned in was the medical examination results, two passport photos and letterpack500.

The actual interview took less than 5 min. Once your number is called, the interview takes place in one of the DMV type booth were you talk to the officer through a plexi glass window while standing. I was able to accompany my wife during her interview. The questions asked were:

1. How long have you been married?
2. What does your husband do?
3. When do you plan on coming to the states.
4. Have you been to the states?

The interviewing officer was an Asian-American but he spoke some Japanese. <... read complete review

Review Topic: General Review

We arrived the day before the interview and stayed at the Asia Center of Japan hotel for 12,390 yen for the night, including a decent buffet breakfast in the morning. The hotel is in the Roppongi district of Tokyo, it conveniently close to the embassy as well as restaurants, bars, parks and other amenities (like family-mart and karaoke!)

The appointment was for 9:00 am, we arrived by taxi, ~1800 yen, at a little before 8 and were the third in a line forming just outside the first entrance point on the sidewalk. It was raining a little and I was really hoping we wouldn\'t get stuck in the rain until 8:30. After about 10-15 minutes they opened the doors. We were able to leave all of the electronics and our luggage in the first security check. They gave us numbered tags corresponding to identical tags attached to our belongings.

After going through another security check we entered the waiting / counter area. There is touch screen computer on a counter ... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

The interview was not to hard. My fiancee arrived before 8:00 am and was number 17 in line. The consulate officers were very blunt and not the most friendly people. My fiancee was required to speak English unlike what some previous reviews had led us to believe. The question were easy.

1. How did you get to know each other?
2. How much can he speak Japanese?
3. When did you meet his parents?
4. When did he meet your parents?
5. When will you get married?
6. What is your job?

The whole thing was over by 10:30 am with no real problems. We just wish the officers were a little more friendly.
