I must say I was quite tense since the time I got to know the interview date from the embassy. Largely because the last consulate review at Auckland was a very rare case of rejection. It was of an Indian citizen living in New Zealand. Since I am also an Indian citizen living in New Zealand it immediately set off alarm bells in me. In a way it was good because I really went into an overdrive in terms of meticulously collecting and arranging my evidence that I intended to show at the interview.
Also for the very first time I mentally actually drew up a Plan-B on what to do if God forbid I got a negative result at the embassy. I made up my mind that I will be applying for my permanent residency here in New Zealand and my fiancee will have to move to New Zealand. Essentially speaking I wanted to ensure that the decision of the consulate officer did not affect my plans to be with my fiancee, if I am not with her in America, it will be in New Zealand.

So it wasn't me who went to the Consulate, but my husband said everything was fine. He'd been there several times before for H2B visas, so he wasn't nearly as wound up about the interview process as I was.
It sounds like his interview was the same as everyone else's that has reviewed the Consulate. He said that "B" (our case worker/person) was very lovely and nice, etc.
It doesn't sound as though the CO asked very many questions. Where I was born and where we met, basically. And the CO went through every single piece of paper that was in our file and then essentially said "thanks your visa will be on its way."
I emailed "B" at the Consulate to thank her for her time with us and she said the visa/husband's passport was leaving with a courier today (the interview was yesterday)!

This morning I had my interview at the consulate. I was cleared through the security (who were actually really nice which was unexpected). I then met with the consulate officer I had been dealing with over email. She explained the process, made sure they had all the documents, and then told me to wait for my interview.
The interview went as expected. I was asked what my husband's name was, where we met, when we met, what my husband did for a job, where and when we were married, and why I was in Virginia (where we got married). We then discussed my husband's orders, the military lifestyle, he gave me a handout on domestic violence and told me some places to visit when I head to Germany. He then said he could not approve me (as expected) until they had my results, but that I will get a call next week confirming that my passport was sent out with my visa. So basically, conditionally approved.

My appointment was for 9:30am, Thurs 6th of December, and I was fortunate enough that my husband was able to attend the interview with me, I initially thought he may not be able to get off work, but the moral support/company did not go amiss.
We arrived at the citibank building (Consulate Office) at 8:45, went next door to the Post Office and purchased ANOTHER courier paid post bag as the one previously purchased was not an A4 size, thus would be too small. We then made our way upstairs at 9.00am
When we got up to the 3rd floor, we were greeted by the security guard, who was friendly, not intimidating at all, we walked through the metal detectors, and the guard directed us as to which window to go to. We were the only ones in the immigrant visa queue, so that was good, but there were quite a number of people in the 'non' immigrant queue, and as we would learn inspite of our interview time coming and going, they clear that queue first.
