I've read several reviews here and overall the experiences were at least tolerable, but mine certainly wasn't. PLEASE NOTE MY EXPERIENCE WAS IN 2004-5, so things have obviously gotten much better, but what happened to me might help someone.
The K-1 progressed normally to the point of me going to Saigon to be with my fiancee for the interview and to bring her home to the US. Then it went VERY bad very quickly because of corruption.
The day of the interview we had ALL required documents, but the Embassy would NOT allow me in the building. The Embassy property is owned by the US yet they wouldn't allow a US citizen to enter it! I had to wait at a small cafe nearby while my fiancee went inside. She came out after about 3 hours and said they wanted more proof of how long we had known each other, so we rushed to an internet cafe to print off MY side of the chats with her.........we had supplied HER yahoo chats with me, but they wanted mine, which were identical ... read complete review

Happy to say we had out interview almost one week ago at the Consulate in HCMC. I will give a big compliment to all the Consulate staff who are extremely helpful and friendly.
I had submitted a huge amount of proof of relationship with form I-129. Since that time we have accummulated more proof and it was enough to fill a small suitcase. When we has the interview I placed the suitcase on the counter and we only needed a few items from the suitcase.
Officer was very polite and asked simple and pertinent questions about our relationship, my work, marriage plans and was shocked this was my 8TH trip to Vietnam to be with my fiancee!!! After learning this was my eight trip, and after looking at my flight information, he only had one more question before he filled out the pink form and said "congratulations"!
It pays to be prepared and to fill out the I-129 with plenty of proof of relationship!

Everyone one at the consulate was friendly and professional. I went to all three windows with my fiancee as she went thru the steps. She was treated very well, as was I. I think it help my fiancee to relax some with me there. I saw several ladies receive pink without their fiancees present, and several receive blue with their fiancee there. I think this means you have to submit all documents and follow the instructions to have a good happy interview.
After, I took a moment and read two plaques about the flag pole and read how the flag pole's base was made with black granite from the old embassy floor. I then stood,prayed, and remembered thoose who were here before me. Saluting the flag I was never as proud to be an America!
