The Paris Embassy handled everything ok. The first packet they sent with all the forms in it was not clear and referenced material relating to NON-immigrant visas even though we were getting an IMMIGRANT visa. After filling out what we thought was the correct paperwork and sending it to Paris we didn't hear anything back. After 2 weeks we contacted the Embassy and they said that we forgot to send DS-2001 (checklist) so they didn’t bother to set anything up or contact us that we forgot a form. After hearing this we immediately sent them the checklist and another 2 weeks later we were notified that we would have the interview. It took about 6 weeks from the time the packet was received to the interview date.
As for the interview, it went ok as well. The Embassy doesn’t let anybody in until 12:45. The first person at the window was rude like we were at the DMV. She said that forms weren’t filled out and that papers weren’t signed correctly. After dealing with all these minor issues she said to wait for the interview with the Consul. The meeting with the Consul went much better and asked all the general questions. She was much more polite and told us that we would have the visa in just a few days.
