I'm submitting this review on behalf of my fiance, Nai Vang, who had his K1 visa interview on Thursday, February 7th 2013. He shared that overall it was a non-intimidating, easy experience despite us being nervous for several weeks.
He showed up at the Embassy in Vientiane at approximately 7:40 a.m. He waited about 10-15 minutes before they called him into the Embassy for check-in. There was a big group of people for visitors visas. There was only 3 who were going for their K1 visa which included my fiance. They were the last ones to be interviewed after the group of 20 visitors visas.
At about 11:00 a.m., they called Nai to be fingerprinted and pay the $240 visa fee. Then the interview began. He had a Hmong interpreter even though he also knew how to speak Lao.
These were the questions that the CO asked:
Where did we meet and how did we meet?
Was it him who approached me or did I approach him first?
How long did we know each other before the engagement ceremony?
After I left Laos to go back home, did I contact him at all, and if so, through what means? emails? phonecalls? Skype?
Did he have any relatives in the U.S.?
Did we know each other before our initial encounter?
Do I have any kids, if so, how many?
What are my kids' ages?
Does he know the name of my ex-boyfriend (the father of my two boys)?
Did Nai know the ex-boyfriend too?
Where does the ex-boyfriend live (which country)?
Do I and the ex-boyfriend still keep in contact with each other?
What is my job?
What does he like about me? (He placed his hands over his chest and smiled: he said that he liked my body and my heart--the CO and interpreter laughed)
Who was present at our engagement ceremony?
Who did I travel to Laos with?
Then they held up two pictures that we took together in Luang Prabang and asked him to identify the location.
Afterwards, the CO and interpreter talked to each other briefly. They reviewed the emails, his family book, ID, and Moneygram slips. Nai said that the CO mentioned to the interpreter that "His fiancee must really love him a lot."
Then they asked for his passport, looked at the calendar, and wrote on the white slip of paper of the date when he can return to pick up his visa which was February 13th. :-D
That was it! Nai shared that the other two Laotian women (1 was young and the other one had a child) did not pass and was given the 221g slip. He was the last one to go out of the three of them.

10/11/2012 example questions was
Who is your fiance?
Where does he work?
What does he do at work?
Salary/wage?
Are your mothers related (both had same last name)?
They weren't satisfied so they asked if my Fiancee had relatives in the states. Which they do, they asked her who they were. She didn't and doesn't know, her mother was there with her. CO asked her mother? All the names of her relatives here.
Asked if she met my mother, she forgot she did a long time ago.
Results was a 221g requesting a letter of employment, all 4 years of transcript were supplied as to current pay stubs. Will have to see if employer will provide one, I know that I can't even disclose where I work base in their employee book. Also bank statements submitted, they are sure picky. Interview took place after lunch which tends to be harder. Right before lunch, my fiancee said they were approving people regardless of lack of evidence or such.

My fiancee arrived at the US Embassy in Vientiane, Laos at approx 745am. Went inside and waited for her name to be called. Paid the interview fee of $240. Waited some more and then called her name for the interview. The female consular officer asked her a series of questions:
How did you meet?
When was the last time you saw your fiance?
How many children does your fiance have and what are their ages?
Where does your fiance live?
Where does your fiance work?
What does your fiance do for a living?
How many times has your fiance been married?
Where does your father work?
After that, the officer asked her if she spoke English. When she said yes, the officer spoke with her for about 5 minutes in english. Interesting that the officer did not ask her if I spoke Lao language which I do. She looked at all the evidence that was presented and gave my fiancee a 221g worksheet for me to complete.
After two weeks, we resubmitted the required evidence and we were approved woohoo! The workers and the consular officer were very professional and very nice.
