Amsterdam, Netherlands | Review on July 25, 2013: | TorLex
Rating: | Review Topic: K1 Visa
I went to the consulate in Amsterdam and arrived 13:15 but had to wait for it to open. There was a pretty long line. At 13:30 we could enter and there were securty guards there moving a scanner. The guy said that if you had ANY electronic device with you, it would take 40-60 minutes extra. I'm glad I left mine in the car.
My bag got checked and went through a bigger detector (like at the airport) and then I had to go to a smaller room with 3 windows. First I gave them my photo's, stamps and birth certificate and support letters stuff, and got my fingerprints taken. Then I was told to take a seat and was called to another window.
It went REALLY fast. The guy had our pages of proof of relationship and just asked a few questions like how we met, how many times, if I like my parents in law, and who proposed and when. I was ready for a lot more but after like 3-4 minutes I was done and he told me that they would send the visa and passport (they take it) back to me in 4-5 work days. I was a bit suprised at how fast it went and hesistant to leave, but it was really done!
So I was outside soon and enjoyed the sunny weather. It was really less of a big deal then I thought it was!
