Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

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.

Review Topic: K1 Visa

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

Review Topic: K1 Visa

I was at the consulate for around 1 hour in total. Don't bother showing up earlier than your appointment time because they only start letting people in 10 minutes in advance.
Do not bring laptops or phones or any electronic devices. Even though they say this clearly on the embassy website and on your appointment paper, people still bring them and they are sent back by security.
There are 4 booths/desks and it's all very out in the open -- there isn't much privacy for your interview.
First, they call your name at one of the desks and they ask for all the documents you were required to bring – passport, birth certificate, police records, i-134 and supporting evidence (tax forms, payslips etc) and any needed translations for documents not in English or Dutch. They take your fingerprints. Then they ask you to sit down.
After waiting for a little longer (maybe 15 minutes or so), they call your name again at a different desk. This is the actual interview ... read complete review
