My fiancee is an Algerian citizen who has been living in Spain for 2 years (without permenant residency). His interview went very well. He was called to the desk where they took all his forms and a letter from me confirming the engagement. He offered them photos, cards, phone logs, but they did not want any of that stuff.
He waited for 2 hours then was called for the interview. They took his fingerprints then started the interview. The questions were pretty easy - How did you meet, What does your fiancee do, Why are you here in Spain, What language do you use to communicate. They asked about the police report, and he explained that because he does not have permenant residency, he could not obtain one. Then he was told that they were going to have to call me (the USC) first before issuing the visa.
Please make sure to call the embassy to get the relevent info. I was told by many people in the US that the Spanish Embassy would not interview people who are not citizens of that country which is simply not true. I was also told that they required a police certificate which is not true either. It wasn't until I talked to them that I got the correct info.
