Great experience at consulate. It was very informal , staff were super friendly.
First step was to go through paperwork with the lovely lady B. I was told my info was super organised , I only followed the guideline on this forum. Then finger prints , fee payment. I was told to then take a seat and wait for a immigration officer. After 40 mins or so I was called, the guy was very relaxed and started the interview by saying it was just a formality. He asked me how me and my fiancé met and a couple of other questions about Oklahoma as he had never been there, then We had a chat about horses and rodeo ( our passion and what got us together) . Interview took less then a few mins. I took phone records and supporting info , they did not look at this guess there was enough in the initial pack.

Good experience at consulate.
You go to window 5 and chat to a nice lady. We had good small talk. She said the way my fiancé and I met was like a romantic movie :-)
Waited for my named to be called for interview. Didn't have to wait long. I took a book to read. Was asked a few questions and took an oath.
Easy process as I was quite nervous!
Very relieved and happy!!

Was a fairly pleasant experience at the Auckland consulate. I (the petitioner) joined my fiancé for his interview because I was in the country with him at the time.
We went to the city group building about 40 minutes before our appointment, and went through security and had no issue at all even though there was some debate if I would be allowed in. We went up the window and met B, who I have been emailing and calling for the past 11 months so was nice to finally put a face to the voice. She was very very nice and said I was super organised over and over again and how it made our case very easy. She gave us the option to pick up our visa by hand an basically said we were approved, even before we had down the interview. Our medical results still had not arrived yet and she said that wouldn't be an issue.
We then took a seat, and waited for nearly 2 hours. There are no clocks in there so time went fairly quickly and we talked to another man who lives in Vermont as well. E... read complete review

I think my entire appointment at the consulate was complete in approx 1 hr. After going through security, one first checks in with an officer who has your file. She goes through your papers and asks for anything that is due (for example - I had to hand over a new marriage certificate because the one I submitted was not actually what they were asking for). And she goes through a few things like your source of income and employment in the USA. This is where you submit your fingerprints electronically also.
My case officer was Ivy who was very approachable. Nothing was really a problem except that her computer didn't like my photo (apparently it was a bit dark or lacking definition, but was accepted anyway). The computer also didn't like my fingerprints as there was a lack of definition there too. That computer probably needs a hug or something.
You then sit down again and wait to see the interviewer and expect to be asked a lot of questions but I guess I had everything in ... read complete review

After many months of being unsure as to how the immigration process was going, we finally received notification that our interview was booked.
The weeks leading up to the interview were nerve wracking, as we checked, re-checked, and checked again all the paperwork, the requirements for medical checks and police checks, and made very, very sure that all items required were present and correct.
The day arrives, and I present my nervous self at the US Consulate at the requested time.
The security guard checked me through and adviced me to wait for window 5 to be free - which I did.
I waited maybe 25 minutes, and up I went. I met the person who was handling our application, who was extremely nice, and told me that all my papers were correct, and didn't even need further proof that the relationship was ongoing, as she could tell from our previous correspondance that we are in a committed relationship! So finger prints and hand over a coup... read complete review
