My interview appointment was at 9:30 but I got there a little early and got in line.
Then a guy came up and asked people if anyone was there for an immigrant visa, so I told him I was, and he said to follow him to a different line (right next to it) where there was only another person ahead of me.
So i got my "number" and went in when it was my turn. Just like at an airport, a quick security check was done in the next room. I got my purse back and went into the next building, where the actual interview would take place.
The guy at the entrance told me where to go and I got in line at a window for a quick check-in.
I had the wrong envelop with me, so he gave me one of theirs and told me where and how many stamps to get (bring some coins, just in case). He said to sit down in the waiting area until my number gets called after that.
I did that and waited for about 30 minutes. The women at the next window now asked me whether all the info on our application is still correct (like the place where I live, my name etc..).
That didn't take long at all. Again, she told me to sit down and wait til my number gets called, and be ready for my actual interview.
I waited for about an hour or so for my number to appear on the board.
The immigration I officer made me swear, that all that information i give is correct,before he started the interview.
The interview was in German and very easy. It was just like chatting about your relationship with someone you don't actually know. He was very nice and asked me questions like:
- how and where we met
- (since we met at a concert) he asked whether we at any instruments and what kind of music we like
- where I was born
- how we stayed in touch
- whether I go or went to school here, and what I studied
After that, he wanted to get a few more fingerprints and then told me "your visa is approved"!
He was very nice and the actual interview took only about 7minutes or so 
I think I spend about two and a half hours total in there.
Good luck everyone!
