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

My interview went very smooth. First officer wanted my passport and 5 originals. They had all the other papers. I saw most of the NVC package on his desk. I had two big books with me... They were not opened!
Then he wanted my 2 passport pictures. Fingerprints were taken. Okay, sit down until my colleague calls you. 5 minutes she called me.
The second interview took like 10 minutes. Again fingerprints. The oath. Then some questions. Where I lived at the time? About when we met first and how? Where we met in person and how did it go? How many times my partner was in The Netherlands? The dates of her last visit. Does your partner have any other income except for SS? - Of course that was in her affidavit of support also. - Then she wanted to see any recent pictures. I gave her 27 pictures in a pile with a list of months and places. She ran through those... Then she said, I know enough. We are ready. You will get your package sent next week. At POE I would get the originals... read complete review

Interview was short, professional and the people were strict yet courteous. I was asked about 5 questions from the usual question lists (where did you meet, when, what trips did you take). All in all it was a smooth experience.

Very friendly guards and officers at this consulate! Strict security measures, but the friendly guards made it all go very smoothly, and even wished everyone good luck with their interview.
Phones are allowed inside the building now, but no larger electronic devices. The guards ask you to show them your phone and make sure the bluetooth is switched off.
I was inside the building for about an hour. I got called to the first window after waiting for 10 minutes, handed over all my paperwork and was told to sit down again. 15 minutes later I was called to another window for the interview. If you have a genuine relationship, you have nothing to worry about. It is just a friendly conversation about how you met, your jobs, the time you spent together, etc. The officer showed me some of the pictures from my file and asked me where they were taken and who were in the pictures. Then she handed all the pictures to me, so I was getting ready to answer a lot more questions abo... read complete review
