Review Topic: K1 Visa

My fiance is a Bolivian citizen and resident of Spain. She lives in Barcelona. She flew to Madrid for the K1 interview. Her experience was positive overall. She had to pay I believe 165 euros for a medical exam the day before the interview. It was a routine exam but then they told her that she also had to get x-rays at another doctor's office, which she did. The following morning, the day of the interview, she had to go back to the doctor's office to pick up all the results to bring to the interview. At the embassy, she went to a window and presented all her paperwork (DS-156, 157, etc) and then she sat down with someone who asked her about our relationship and engagement and so forth. My fiance does not speak any English, so the entire interview was in Spanish. They approved the visa and said they would mail it to her address in 7-9 days.

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Visa approved!

Like many others here, I overthought the interview entirely and it was much simpler and painless than I thought. The security guards were very friendly and allowed me to leave my cellphone with them, which I wasn't expecting. There wasn't a queue outside the embassy nor at the reception, and the waiting area only had a dozen or so people there. I was called up after about 15 minutes.

I was seen by two people; a nice Spanish lady who spoke good English and took my documents, and then an American consul who conducted the actual interview. The only documents she asked for were: Passport, visa payment receipt, birth certificate, police certificate, fiancee's I-134, medical packet, and she took my fingerprints. Nothing else was asked for, even though I brought my fiancee's original birth certificate and divorce decree, and cosponsor I-134 incase we needed it.

The interviewer was initially cold, but asked a lot less questions than... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

Approved.....after a week of our case being reviewed.

My husband had a police record. Make sure you bring all the necessary documentation such as an updated police record, the spanish law of the crime in English and Spanish, a letter showing the completion of the sentencing. If you know you will be admissable, ensure to write a short brief stating the spanish law and also the FAM notes (guide the consulate uses)backing up why you know your case is admissable. Be OVER prepared and always think of the worst case scenario so you can prepare accordingly. If you know the law, you will be steps ahead and save lots of time. This is cliche, but so true, knowledge is power.

Due to the delicate situation of our case, I was at my husband's interview. I researched his crime during the months of waiting for our paperwork to go through NVC. I knew what our rights were. This review is for those of you whose partner has a police record. I know there is not much writ... read complete review
