All round great experience. Even the security were helpful & friendly (and there were plenty of those, even the elevators had security). So, elevator to tenth floor, follow the flags through to the other side of the building. Met security outside the office who made sure my phone was off, put it in a lockable satchel and handed back to me. I go through to desk where the checklist of documents were gone through, they were then all put into a plastic folder.
Then I went through what was exactly like airport security. Removed all placed in tray (including belt & watch) went through scanner. Then put everything back on and in pockets (wallet was examined because it showed metal inside, DUH).
No wait, straight to another elevator and another level. This is the interview office. Got number from machine and waited. Called to window where documents were thoroughly checked as to dates & validity then placed in purple folder. Told to sit.
Next called to window where the actual interview took place. Probably about ten questions, mainly about our relationship timeline and where the final divorce fit in with it all.
Only had medical the day prior so got no "approved", then I got given a form with the "medical missing" ticked. Told nothing more for me to do and my passport will be ready and sent in 1 to 2 weeks.
Whole process was about an hour, hour and a half from entering the building to leaving the building.
Sydney consul was nowhere near as busy as I expected and the staff were all friendly and totally approachable. Jodi had everything sorted and backup on backup so we just cruised it through. They loved that we had everything ready as they asked for it. javascript:emoticon('')
