I arrived into Paddington Railway station 2 ½ hours prior to my Embassy appointment. Once outside I then ordered an Uber, which astonishingly arrived in less than 2 minutes. Jumped in and made the 30-minute journey to Ponton Road. The first thing that really hit me was the incredibly long que, which spanned as far as the eye could see, back, (almost) to the Embassy Gardens and water feature on Nine Elms Lane.
I did notice that those in the que were grasping DS-160 Confirmation forms. I went directly to the red visa check in awning, right by the Consular Services entry doors and showed them my DS-260 and passport. Fully expecting instruction on what to do, they moved the stanchions out of the way and asked me to go straight through, (after marking me off a single page typed appointment list – remembering here that I was the best part of 2 hours early). I went through security, where someone was asking if anyone had a laptop, (no one did) and then out of the secondary door, thr... read complete review

Interview experience:
My medical was Thurs 16th Jan, my Interview was Thurs 23rd Jan.
I went up to London (from Kent) the night before (Wednesday 22) at around 1. The travelodge Vauxhall is literally right next to the Vauxhall station.
There's a Starbucks next to it which was helpful!
My appointment was at 9.30am on Thurs 23rd Jan.
I left the hotel at 8.15 because I walk slow and didn't want to be hot&bothered.
The walk is so easy to navigate, I used the Google maps walking function. Nice walk along the river if you want to cross over, I didn't though.
I arrived at the embassy after my chill walk, about 8.30 ish. I sat outside and waited because they don't let you in until 30 min before the app time.
I followed the signs to consular services (left side of embassy iirc) and there was a HUGE queue. SKIP IT, you're special. K1 can go to the front and you get allowed ent... read complete review

I arrived just after 8:00am and joined the line outside the embassy. When I was inspected by security whilst standing in the line I was sent to the front on the basis my appointment time was 8:30am. Make sure security knows you are a K-1 applicant so you don't arrive late or get wet standing in the rain.
After going through security you enter the main building. (Remember not to take bags or luggage with you.) You show your paperwork in the reception area. It is then a short walk to the elevators. The visa processing department is on the floor above. You take a left and go to the booths where K-1 visas are dealt with. A local employee took my paperwork from me. He asked a few questions, but I think he was just making small talk. He gave me a leaflet about domestic violence. Don't ignore the leaflet. It was a very I interesting read.
After an hour I got a telephone call telling me to go to a window and speak with one of the consular officers for my ... read complete review
