I would really like to be able to blast the system and give the HCMC consulate a bad rating, but from personal experience, I really can't do that. I do believe that the system is really flawed, but that is mainly because of understaffing and lack of time to give sufficient personal attention to each case.
Here is our experience: We arrived in Saigon on May 5th to prepare for a May 9th interview. We met with Marc Ellis to finish the preparation of our case. Twice. I hate Saigon. What a shithole. If I never return to Saigon, it will be too soon.

There is no place to wait inside the Embassy and they won't let you in if you mention you're hoping to wait with your fiancee. The people at the door are totally uncoordial, but I think this is part of the image the US is hoping to generate globally--indiscriminant, belligerent ungratefulness. (What luck!)
To our complete surprise, our interview was a quick success (after hours of waiting--she got in line at 7:30 and was out by 11:30), with a pink slip on the first try. I was worried sick (literally) because I'm a grad student with $7,800 in income for 2007 and no significant work history, and people said that fina... read complete review
