My K1 visa interview was scheduled April 23, 2013 at 12:30 pm. Came one hour early, showed the guard my appointment letter and waited outside. 30 minutes prior to the scheduled interview, it rained and they let us all in.
After they screened by belongings, I was ushered inside the compound and went in the consulate waiting area.
Here are the steps:
1. Wait in front of window 5 with all of your documents in order exactly as instructed on the checklist (packet 3)
2. Window 5 lady showed up, so I immediately got up and gave her my documents.
3. Paid $240 at window 6 (which is exactly next to window 5)
4. Make sure you have a copy of your birth cert, divorce decree (if any)
5. Signed DS forms that needed to be done with the presence of an officer.
6. Waited another 15 minutes before they called my name to enter window 1. This is actually a small room, where you'll find the IO behind a window.
7. Fingerprinting was done
8. IO asked: What does your fiance do, where does he live, in a house or apartment, have you ever been to the US, what are you planning to do after you're married, timeline of our visits both in Jakarta and Dallas, so you met online?
9. Gave me yellow slip 221G, told me not to worry and the documents presented were complete.
We were under Administrative processing for 2 weeks, visa issued May 10, 2013.
The AP could be because of my Singapore police clearance that just arrived couple of days prior to the interview.
They canceled my B1/B2 visa "without prejudice" (so it says on the stamp)
Hope this helps, good luck to all.
