Had our interview scheduled for 8:30 on June 21, but we were worried about traffic so left early from home and got to the consulate about 6:45. We went straight in, ignoring the line, I just showed them my US passport. Window 5 opened about 7am, and I was the first there to turn in my wife's documents. The lady was nice, and handed back some documents I had included "just in case". She then gave me a pay-in slip to take to the cashier. Professional, polite service.
The cashier wasn't open, and didn't open until almost 8am, by which time there was a line of 6 or 7 people. I was first in line, and paid my $380 ($45 fingerprint fee, $335 filing fee). I took the receipt back to window 5, which by now had a line, but the nice lady there saw me and waived me over to window 6 and took the receipt. She then told me that there was a meeting with the people doing the interviews across the street, and they wouldn't start interviewing until 9am, in case we wanted to get something to... read complete review

It was very uneventful interview in Bangkok. Arrived at 6:30 am. Got inside at 6:45 am. Guard does not allow to bring cell phones or laptops inside. Submitted paperwork to window #5. Sit and wait till 10 am. A lot of people inside applying for a variety of visas. Only one clerk appeared to be working on K1/3 visas. There were 2 couples with kids and one single woman. At least one couple got the visa, the rest I could not tell. Interviewer spoke broken Thai. My fiancé had a hard time understanding his questions. Her English is way better then his Thai. I have no idea why didn’t he just ask her in English. Questions: How did you meet your fiancé? Where did you meet your fiancé? How many times your fiancé visited Thailand? Where does he lives? He asked me some meaningless questions and it was over. Oh yes, he fingerprinted my fiancé as well. “Return to pick up visa day after tomorrow at 3 p.m.”
Over all, besides a 3 hour wait and interviewers ... read complete review

Interview went well, overall. Only question asked was "where does your fiance live?" The farang interviewer mostly just looked over the docs, everything else was through the female thai interpreter. My fiancee's passport needed amending and she was told she could return on Mondays between 1 and 3pm. Seems that is the only time you may return to the Embassy with amended docs, which she did. In Thailand, you can get a new passport in about 48 hours. Visa was issued the next day, Tuesday. her ticket to the USA was for 10 days after the interview, so no re-booking was necessary.
My fiancee was a little upset because the farang interviewer wasn't very friendly, and that only added to her anxiety over the affair. I understand being a US Embassy Visa Unit employee is a tough job, and you probably send a lot of folks away in tears, and probably see lots of scammers too. But a simple smile or acknowledgement goes a long way, and they need to also understand that it's not easy for... read complete review
