Review Topic: General Review

María made a great review, so I am just going to point out the things that were different for me, and will try

My interview was September 11th, so I had an appointment at the unidad angloamericana the day before at 11.

I the unidad they asked for my passport and 3 passport pictures (they have just told me one, they also asked for the document that is set to you by the embassy with the name of the two medical centers on the top.
All the medical process was the same María described.

On Tuesday (apparently Tuesday is the day for the interviews) I picked up my results (in a closed bag) and walked up Serrano. I had time enough, so took the paper they sent that they say it is needed to get into the embassy and the electronic devices in my had to let them there.
there was a line to get into the embassy, and it was hot and sunny, the rest of the people just had some papers much less that we new. When finally the segurity guard made ... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

We both went to the interview as I live in Spain with my wife. As a result, the interview went really well and there were no causes for concern at any moment. I think the fact that I had been living with her in Spain for two years, and with Spain being in a bad situation, things were obvious for the interviewer. In fact, the I was asked more questions than my wife! Now maybe things would have been different if she had gone alone, but who knows. All in all, after waiting so long and filling out so much paperwork, this part of the process was a welcome breeze. Hopefully it goes as well for others!!

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

The final process of our Visa Journey was much easier than we expected in Madrid. The Medical, which we did at Unidad AngloAmericana was easy and quick. We checked out the vaccination requirements beforehand from this link - http://www.unidadmedica.com/images/visados_english.pdf.

At the Embassy we arrived about 40 minutes early and had to wait in line outside to pass through security. They do NOT allow backpacks and large bags for anyone who is not an American citizen. They allowed me, the American spouse, to enter with my husband for his CR1 interview no problem. We were then assigned a number and passed through to the waiting room for Consular Services.

While there was no clock, there were a lot of people but our process moved quite quicly. We were called to window 1 where a nice woman leafed through our paperwork and asked questions here and there - confirmed where we would live... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Hi, this is a summary of my fianceé´s interview experience for a K-1 visa.

The interview was on a Tuesday at 12:30. I did the medical exam the day before at 10:30 at the ‘Centro Medico Angloamericano’. They were punctual and friendly. The first step was a questionnaire on my medical history. I completed it with the doctor in the consultation room. The second part of the medical exam was a complete checkup: weight, height, listen to my lungs, eyes, pulse, etc. The next step was the syphilis blood sample. The doctor and the nurse made the whole process very easy. After the checkup, it was off to take the x-rays, about a 25-minute walk away. The whole process of the medical exam lasted about 1.5 hours. The results were available at the doctor’s office after noon the following day. The embassy is about a 20-25 minute brisk walk from the medical center.

I arrived at the embassy at 12:25. I was aware of the warnings about what I would be allowed to take... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

I met with my husband at 8:55 in the morning at the train station in Madrid. My husband travelled to Madrid the day before for his medical.

Since we still had plenty of time, we had a pleasant walk in a beautiful park in the center of Madrid. It was a beautiful day.

We picked up his medical results at 12:00 and then headed to a restaurant for lunch. We walked to the embassy and went inside at 2:30 pm for his 3:00 appointment. At the entrance, the staff was very polite. We left our bags and mobiles, we were then given a number and went in only with the documentation.

The first person called his number at 3:00 o'clock and reviewed all the documents sent in by NVC. She was very polite. She just asked me if my current employment letter was valid only for Spain, since we would be moving to the US. I confirmed this information, and then she asked me if this was the reason my father was the joint sponsor. Again, I confirmed this informati... read complete review
