Got there nice and eary 15 or so mins before our 8.30 appointment, waited in a little line (not as big as most days for once, we'd been in london for a week or so before figuring out where to go so not to be in a mad panic on the day) were put 2nd in the line for K1 visas Woot! waited about 30 mins and got called up, handed over our documents, got most handed back to us with a nice smile, got my chest X-ray back along with the medical exam notes and a chunky file sealed. peeked at the forms and saw a nice red rubber stamp saying approved!!!
Had a nice chat with the guy at the window as he looked over our docs, unfortunately we had a problem with our police check...
So our Visa was Approved but suspended, the original police check we had sent had been replaced by a newer version unbeknown to us (we had been having trouble with the london embassy and their office black holw.. sent in multiple Packet 3's to no avail. my Fiance got his congresswoman to inquire... read complete review

Okay here's my lengthy (really lengthy!) review...
We showed up at 8:20-ish for our 9:00 interview, and had no problems in line--in fact, they were letting people with 9:30 interview times wait. My confirmation email seemed fine (good thing, especially since we STILL haven't received the official letter!) and we got through no problem. We went through the security area and discovered that I had forgotten to take my American cell phone out of my bag, which was super annoying (we had left the UK mobiles and other electronics across the street at our hotel). Spurs went in while I ran the phone back, and they were great about letting me back in.
Unfortunately, since we didn't have the official letter, the guy giving out numbers at the front gave us a 2000-level number (for E-visas) instead of a 5000-level (for immigrants). We didn't think twice about it until 2 hours later when we finally got called up to one of the small number windows (as others have said on... read complete review

Arrived at the Embassy just after 7.30 for 8am appointment time. Waited in line outside for just 15 minutes before being let through security and into the building. Was given a ticket number and went to wait in the waiting area. It wasn't at all like I imagined, actually thought it was fairly relaxed! I was 2nd in line for immigrant visas out of I think a total of 8. THere were nearer to 100 non-immigrant visas being processed that day.
i got called up after only 15 mins and gave in my paperwork. He asked for my birth certificate and copy and police certificate and copy, then for the affidavit and tax returns. I had 2 tax returns from Luke but not for 2007 so he asked if I had that or anything else. I gave him a letter from his employer and from his bank. While he was looking at those I also mentioned that I have savings too. He asked how much and i told himm and said I had a bank statement with me if he wanted it. He said "yes, because this isn't enough"... I didn't kn... read complete review

I arrived at the embassy at about 8.10am for my 9am appointment, the line to go through security was pretty long but I got inside by about 8.40. I waited until 10.30 to get called up to the first window. That was all over pretty quickly, I gave her my documents, paid my fee and then sat down and waited for my number to be called again. At about 11.30 my number got called up, I was asked how we met, he asked to see my ring, asked about how my partner proposed to me, where he works and how long he had worked there and that was it! He didn't want to see anything else despite my carrying lots of heavy stuff with me. In the end it was very painless.
