So my fiance had her interview yesterday and I'm happy to say she was approved and will be soon traveling here! Having gone through a lot of research over the last month for the interview phase I just wanted to share a few suggestions that might help others when you get to this point.
-For the medical exam make sure that you get copies of your records and vaccinations at least 6 weeks before you plan to need them as you will need them at the exam.
-for scheduling appointments It seems that almost universally when you first look for an appointment you may see one that is only 3 days away or none at all. To attend the medical interview you need to show an appointment letter so you need to make sure that you make an appointment probably 2 weeks out in order to have time to schedule the exam. It took us about a week of looking almost constantly until my fiance found an appointment that was timed perfect to allow time for the medical before. I can't remember what day of the w... read complete review

Did have to wait outside for a while, but it didn't take too long and people were pretty nice.

I feel as though the whole interview process was a lot less scary than I had told myself. The Embassy, itself, is easy to get to if you're travelling by public transport, and the entry process isn't too daunting either.
You do, however, have to wait outside whilst someone checks over your appointment letter and ID, which isn't the best when it's raining.

I'll just add that prior to your interview, you receive an email from the embassy with details on what to expect, the location, required documents and the security measurements. I would also like to emphasise that it's VITAL you bring every single piece of paperwork/evidence you can think of because it's not always listed on goverment websites/checklists.

One thing I did notice about my experience was the very friendly staff. The procedure is like an airport but the people are chatty and welcoming.

From the journey to the actual interview, for me, everything went smoothly. However... ... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

My interview was scheduled for 10am on November 5th. I took the train to B
Vauxhall and walked to the embassy (about 15min walk.) I arrived at the entrance at 9.42 and went through security. They asked for my embassy letter and passport. In the building I was stopped by the receptionist, she asked for the same documents and gave me my ticket number. I took the elevator to the first floor and took a left. Immediately upon arriving to the visa window my ticket number showed. The man asked for documents - passport photo, birth cert, acro, affidavit of support, and tax returns. Then I sat down for roughly 10 minutes and was called to have the interview. I met a very friendly american man who took my finger prints and asked me 6 or 7 questions. All very easy to answer if you have a bonafide relationship. I was approved on the spot and that my passport should be returned within a week. It arrived on day 10.

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

Interview was scheduled for 11am but arrived very early at 10.20am but they said it was fine and went through security and got my ticket number.
Eventually got called to the first window to hand over my documents around 11am they asked for the following documents:
* Birth certificate
* Marriage certificate
* Police records
* Wife's divorce certificate
* Passport
* 1 Passport photo

Around 11.25am was called up for a second time and was only asked 1 question:
*How did you and your wife meet?

Answered and the lady approved it there and then.
