K1 Interview Experience: Arrived at 4:30am for 6:30am interview time. Way to early. No need to arrive until about 5:30am. Petitioner not allowed into the embassy. Had to leave and go back to hotel at 6:30am and wait for her to come back to hotel. She said the process was smooth. Pre-screening included passport, DS160, IRS Transcript of Petitioner, Affidavit of Support (I-134), 2x2 pics with name written on back, PSA Birth Certificate, NBI, Cenomar. Questions such as what is name, birthdate, had to take of the mask to match the passport photo, asked what is full name of petitioner. Asked for current address, Asked if Petitioner is Single or Divorced. They reviewed the Medical results. Then Pre-screening was over and had to do fingerprints.

Had to raise right hand to give some kind of oath. Then the ... read complete review

TL;DR - Interview took around 4 hours because my wife had to exit the building to upload missing documents to the consulate's visa online system, the embassy needed time to find documents she mailed to them, and she was last on the list to be interviewed that morning.
