I had my interview on July 31st in Amsterdam.
I had to show my passport through the window and my appointment confirmation. Once I showed that, the lady opened the door for me and asked for my phone or any other electronic devices.. I just gave her my cellphone she checked if my bluetooth was on or not. Bluetooth is not supposed to be on!! She let me inside, I went through the metal detector.
Once inside I had to go to a desk, she took my passport and picture and told me to go to desk 2. At desk two the lady took all my original and copies of my documents, took my fingerprints and told me to take a seat, the consul him self would call me for the actual interview.
I sat down for almost 3hours!! People who came in after me, had already left the building with their approval!
Since it's all out in the open, you can hear every conversation, I could hear some of the interviews. The consul himself was asking a lot of questions, ever... read complete review

Straight forward process, helpful and pleasant communication. 7/10
Make sure you print your interview appointment confirmation. For some reason I was not on their list at the door, they initially wouldn't even accept my printed confirmation, can imagine that without it would've been even more difficult to convince them. They ended up calling someone inside and let me in.
Appointment scheduled at 12:00, arrived at 11:45. Actual interview at 1:30, out by 1:40pm.
Documents requested:
- Passport
- Appointment confirmation
- DS160 confirmation
- NOA2
- 2 passport-style pictures
- I-134 and 2017 tax transcripts

My interview was scheduled quite late in the day so when I went to the consulate there was no lines and I could go in straight away. I was about 15 minutes early because I had read there's not point in being much earlier. In hindsight I'm sure that I could have been maybe 30 minutes early and they would have let me in too so if you are scheduled at a time that's not that busy try to go earlier.
Security was like a simple airport security. They told me not to turn on bluetooth but nobody checked my phone. I had read before that immigrant visa are issues in the second room but all interviews were held in the first (again, maybe because it was at the end of the day and not many people were left). I went to the first window and the guy said the person at the second window would check my documents and he would call me so to take a seat. I did, and I waited for a while but nobody called me so I finally got up to check and they had forgotten about me! He even said he already tu... read complete review

Received an interview date from the NVC within 2 weeks after case complete, interview was scheduled three weeks later. Got to the appointment 30 minutes early, they let me in and I was called to one of the windows to submit my original documents (passport, birth certificate, police certificate and marriage certificate). Then I had to sit down and wait for about 30 minutes to be called to another window, where I answered about 3-4 questions about my relationship and my plans in the US, I showed 2 recent pictures on my phone and within 5 minutes my case was approved. Really smooth experience! Just make sure you come prepared with all the correct official documents.

Hello all,
My interview at the US embassy went well, even though I forgot to take the original marriage license. Pretty dumb, I know.
Anyways: I arrived 20 minutes before my appointment. I had a backpack with me, with my passport, all (or so I thought!) the originals and some photo-albums. Your bag stays with the guards, you will pass through security (just like at the airport) with your passport, your originals and photo-albums.
You are allowed to take your phone with you. It should be on and Bluetooth should be off. Be prepared to hand your phone to the guard and show them that your phone is working.
The guards then direct you to a table, to wait there. Some staff will then call you forward to wait again (standing a little akwardly next to the chairs), right in front of 4 service windows (think of an old-fashioned bank).
They will call your name and ask for
- passport
- original marriage lic... read complete review
