The interview was fine. Both the man who dealt with the paperwork and the lady who asked the questions were very friendly. It was a very fast experience (into the Embassy at 9am, out by 10am).

I had my interview on 5th March 2008 and below is my experience

I got the tube around 9am back to Bond Street and arrived at the Embassy at about 9.30 to join the queue. Security told me to come back in half an hour (Which worried me slightly as my interview was at 10!) Went and sat chain smoking in Grosvenor square for half an hour and then rejoined the queue.

They made me turn my phone off and put it in a plastic bag to hand in at security. There were probably about 50 other people in the queue and I had to line up for about half an hour. (There was a man in front of me who looked VERY familiar... I can't can't work out if he was famous or not, lol) went through security and the metal detector etc and then went and got a number from the front desk (No. 5017) sat on a chair in the main hall and waited for my number to be called (There is a big screen and an automated message calls out numbers also... So there is definitely no danger of... read complete review

Very easy Piece of cake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Few questions ...How/where did you meet? Has she got her own house? What is it that you most like about your fiancee? Have you met her parents? Whats my occupation and what I intended to do in USA once arrived?.....All in all very easy she didnt even ask me for any further evidence of relationship i.e photos or anything else!!!! The worst part of it all was the wait outside arrived at 8.45 and was waiting in the freezing cold for around 90mins and was out by 11.40.

OK, here's what happens:

You line up in Grosvenor Square about half an hour before your time (for me that was 7.30am), in the cold bright morning, and you get a little plastic bag from the woman handing them out to put 'electrical items' into (which for me was only the fob on my key chain; since I read the letter they sent telling me not to bring anything else - including a mobile phone - I knew what I was doing... unlike the people right ahead of me, who had large bags and laptops and all manner of other things expressly prohibited, and who were sent away to store them elsewhere).

You then show your appointment letter to one dude, and then your letter AND passport to the next dude - this is still all out in the cold; I'm so glad it wasn't raining (I saw a big 44 gallon drum full of identical black umbrellas for that eventuality), and then you go into a little demountable building - VERY shoddy, but they're building a better one right next to it (and have... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

My husband had his interview yesterday and it went extremely well. He arrived at 7:15am for his 8:00am appt and was about 15th in line - so you do want to get there early. After going through the security check-in he went inside and was given his number. The intitial person he spoke to was very friendly and put him at ease while reviewing his paperwork. The 2nd officer did ask more detailed questions but nothing too severe and seemed to be helpful. He then went to file out waiver and they told him to add a letter from him versus just my hardship documentation and to mail it back instead of filing now and having it mailed back to us to save time. He was done by 10:30am.
Overall they were very helpful and nice.
