Overall took about 3-4 hours. Arrived around 7:00 AM for the 7:30AM appointment, which from other reviews you'll realize this has absolutely no meaning. The interviews seem completely random. Anywho, about 5 minutes outside, 10 mins in the 'holding tank?', probably 30-40 minutes to get the fingerprints done. Lucky for me I was able to go sit down, my wife had to do the tetris shuffle as they pack everyone into the queue. Really though, its a much needed lesson in waiting your turn that a lot of Vietnamese need. Another 40ish minutes watching random numbers called to submit paperwork. And then a good 2 hours sitting around watching interviews take place while waiting.
I went up with my wife and was not sent away for the entire interview. The entirety of it lasting all of 3-4 minutes. We had a woman interviewer and she was very friendly and seemed to make an effort to make my wife comfortable. She asked the basics. How we met, what's my job, where do I live, how many people in our wedding, who from my family participated. She asked to see a few photos, and chuckled at some of the goofier ones I personally wanted to submit. I think my wife was a little disappointed that all the work she put in gathering evidence didn't see the light of day.
