Review Topic: K1 Visa

The whole process ended up taking around 2.5-3 hours, of which about 6 minutes was the actual interview. Staff managing the queues were friendly and helpful, and kept us moving as best they could. Unfortunately, the upstairs windows seemed to be having some trouble and so I and others were stuck downstairs in the lobby for a long while awaiting the "okay" to send more people up.

Interview process itself was painless, first window checked my documents and took fingerprints. No fuss. Second window was the questions and again didn't take any more time than was necessary, officer was very friendly and was more than happy to clear up questions before sending me on my way with the immigration pack.

Review Topic: EB-3 Visa

The longest wait, as everyone might confirm, is the line outside the Consulate. Once I got it, I submitted my passport and DS-260 and was instructed to go to the first floor and then make two lefts. I sat for about 3 minutes before being called. The visa officer was very pleasant and thanked me for making his life easy by having all my documents organized, etc. He got everything he needed and told me to take a seat. After about 5-10 minutes, I was called to another window and asked basic questions such as the name of the company, whether my company will be deducting my salary, and what I do on a day to day for the company. He was very polite and said he will approve but he needed to see to police certificate. I left the embassy but got my certificate in 2 days, sent it to the embassy on a Wednesday, and my visa was issued two days later.

Advice - answer honestly, be confident, and be polite/respectful.

Ps: some additional info. I got DQ'd August 12, got ... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

Not a bad experience at all. DS-260 holders can go straight to the front of the queue as we're immigration. Through airport style security, ensure your phone is switched on, they'll ask you to open any app to ensure it's a real phone. If you have drinks, they'll ask you to take a sip before passing you through. Go through the extremely heavy doors, don't be afraid to ask for help, they are very heavy! Walk through the courtyard up to the reception centre. At this point you can go through the U.S citizen side of the queue, reception staff are friendly. You'll get your processing number stuck to the front of the DS-260. From the reception desk, it's up the elevator to the first floor. As you disembark the elevator, take a left and walk down to the end of the building and take a left again. Go past the 2 interview booths on the left and take a seat in the waiting area. Depending on the time, you won't wait long. Initially you'll get called up to the window to show your origina... read complete review
