I went to the Starbucks in the Citibank Tower across the road first to get breakfast and relax (It opens at 6:30am).
My appt was at 8:30am so I went over at 8:15am. I went through the IV entrance and lined up inside to have my bags examined and hand over my phone. Once inside the building I went up to the first floor and turned right to go into the Immigration visa room.
Once inside I got my forms ready in the order they asked in the letter they give at the front door. They called my name and I went and handed everything in. I had a minor problem about my visa fee being lower than it should have been, but my lawyer had asked the consulate and they said I could pay on the day. Once the guy had all my forms and certificate, he took them back inside and I sat down to wait, this took the longest.
He came back and explained how I could pay the fee after the interview if I was approved. Then he asked me a few questions about my fiance and how we met. After that I sat back down and later the IO asked me to come up.
This part was so quick! My pack was very thourough and I had a lot of evidence. He asked me to do the oath to say that what I was saying was true etc. Then he asked about my fiance, his job, how we met etc. He was nice and told me it was approved. He gave me a reciept to take to the cashier which I did and then brought back. He took my passport and then told me I could use the TravelDocs site to note where I want to pick up my passport. TravelDocs were the ones who messed up my visa fee in the first place, I mentioned this to the IO and he said that the site had been messed up recently. He doesn't seem to think I should have a problem, but if I don't hear within 10 working days then I should give a call.
The experience was good and not stressful at all. Don't worry!
