Svetlana got to the Embassy at 0800 and had to wait outside about 30-45 minutes. She then was allowed inside and waited for about 2 hours before her interview. She noticed some people were questioned for up to 1 hour and a couple of people were denied their visas. So despite the fact that we knew our paperwork was in order and we have a very solid case, she was naturally a little bit nervous. Finally she got to the window and spoke to a polite lady. The interview was conducted completely in English. Her interview lasted only about 10 minutes. She told me that they asked her about 3-4 questions. Where did you meet your fiance?(Poland) how long were you there? (10 Days) etc. Svetlana offered to show the lady our pictures and emails, but the lady didn't need to see them. Finally she was approved and was told she would receive her visa in about 1 week (They are having some holidays for 1st of May now).
So overall is was a successful experience. After reading othe... read complete review

Aside from some inappropriate criticisms on the part of the consulate regarding Ira's relative youth, the interview went pretty smoothly. Documents were all in order, Visa was granted, and was delivered in under 5 days.

The consular officer was more interested in what my fiancee's work entails. She is a chemist working for ITRI in Taiwan. I was there with her and I was fielded close to 1/2 of the total questions. After the interview, they ask her to hand fill in another form to provide information on schools attended and employment in her home country (Russia). These information were already in the Biographic data form submitted. Then he said they have to perform a security check again with no definite time of completion.

This is a difficult review to write. I wish I could give two ratings, instead of just one. If you read through my posts on VJ you'll understand the reason for this.
The initial processing at the consulate was top-notch. Everyone was friendly, and the interview and paperwork went very smoothly. Natasha even accidentally left her x-ray envelope in the building, and they allowed her to re-enter so she could find and retrieve it. Let's call this portion of our experience a 5=Best rating.
Then the nightmare started. We didn't receive the visa until 16 days after the interview. Dealing with the consulate during this period was simply horrible. Every call we placed to the consulate for the first 10 days received a reply of 'your visas have been approved and are being printed - you should have them in 2 or 3 days'. Plus, you have to pay $13 a call (in pairs, since all they do during the first call is take down your question - you have to call back for the... read complete review
