Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

My interview was at 8:30am February 3, 2015, at the US Embassy Stockholm. When I arrived they checked me for bombs before I could enter. My wife wasn't allowed in with me so she waited in the car. Once inside, I was directed to a window where I gave the copies of new evidence I had brought as proof (conversation in Swedish). Then I had to wait for 1 hour until I was called up again to another window for the interview (in English). The interview took about 10 minutes (lady was very nice) and I had to take a pledge to tell the truth. The interviewer asked questions like how/when did I meet my wife, where/when did I propose, why do we want to move to the US, etc. Then I was told I was approved and would receive my papers/passport in 14 business days, but it arrived 2 days later!

Review Topic: K1 Visa

The interview process was quick and relatively easy. The provided certified copy of the original Jordanian birth certificate was not acceptable so they requested the original birth certificate. This was the one and only exception found. After contacting a family member it was mailed from Jordan to Stockholm and forwarded to the US Embassy. They then issued the K1 Visa in just one day after receiving it.

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

I had my interview today at 8:30 AM.
I arrived to the embassy at 8 AM because I wanted to be early, when I showed up they asked me to stand by the yellow pole and wait to be called in to security, this took about 2-3 mins.. Once I got called they asked me if I had a cellphone or any other electronics on me, I told them no ( In the email it says that you should not bring any electronics of cellphones, BUT they DO have a storage space for you to put your cellphone in, so you CAN actually bring it. )

I had to show them my passport, and then I got let in and it was like a regular xray like you go through at airports. Super easy.

Once I entered the primary building, I went to window G ( Note, this is at around 8:10 AM and I had my appointment at 8:30 and they still let me go through and start the process ), the lady asked me a few questions: Is the co-sponsor my wife's mother, How long have me and me wife been together, When did my wife move to Sweden, I... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

I'm only writing this review because I had a little bit of a bad experience!

But starting off it was great! I've been to the embassy in Stockholm before when I issued a student visa. So I knew the rules of making sure electronics are off and all that stuff. I actually left all that in the car with my fiancé, which made the security guards very happy and they were so polite telling me that it makes their job a lot easier. With all that, my nerves calmed and I felt confident walking in, for some reason I get nervous in situations like this! I guess a lot of us get nervous for this interview for now reason, it all happens really quick. So nothing to worry about! Anyway, I sat down and waited. After only a few minutes my name was called!
A swedish younger guy around his early 30's asked some questions and started gathering my documents. As I hand him my "personbevis" he strictly said NO, this is wrong! You need the one with your parents on there. So I just took it ... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Very easy - just make sure you have everything you can possibly get on the list provided. We were unable to get 1 police report from Timor Leste, which was fine, but we didn't have prior military records or the "correct" police report from Sweden. It took us 4 weeks to get it all because they needed to be translated and notartized as well. But once we sent these, the US Consulate mailed the passport with visa in it a week later.
