Rating: | Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa
As with most others, my experience was good. Appointment was for 9:15 and I arrived around 9:00. There were about 5 people in line when I got there and waited about 35 minutes before being let inside to confirm my appointment, get my number for inside the consulate and go through security. Elevator up to 1st floor and waited about 25 minutes before my number was called. First window was taking fingerprints, providing passport and photos, originals of my birth certificate, marriage certificate, wife's divorce decree, police report, W2 and tax transcript. Some general questions asked like wife's name, address, etc. Sat down and waited about 25 more minutes before being called to another window for the interview. Questions were very basic such as wife's name, DOB, international travel, what she does for work and what I do, if I plan to continue doing the same, how many kids we have an any issues with immigration. I had a visa revoked previously and she mentioned she saw that on my DS-260 but it wasn't an issue. Maybe 7-8 minutes at the window with the officer and she said she had everything she needed and would be able to print my visa and should receive passport back in a couple of weeks or sooner. It is a fairly relaxed environment similar to a DMV/MTO office. All staff I interacted with including security were all very professional and courteous.
