Surprisingly lenient people, but to the point. Asked just regular questions, nothing tricky. They closed their eyes when they realized that spelling of my fiancee's last name is diffenerent in an English transliteration (the way I put it in all applications) and Romanian transliteration.
However, the problem came when they realized that the police certificate did not have her maiden name, and requested a new one, with both names (this is not mentioned anywhere, so beware), which meant we had to go back to Chisinau, get a new certificate, translate it and notarize it, and go back to Bucharest to present it.
The interview was on the first of July, Wednesday, we took off the same evening, took care of the certificate the next day and Friday morning I started calling the consulate to set a new appointment, just to realize that they were closed because of the fourth of July celebration which was on Saturday.
Sunday night we went back to Bucharest, I called the consulate at 8 in the morning on Monday, and they immediately told us to come in at one in the afternoon.
We came in, turned in the new certificate and passport, were called to a window about an hour later, just to receive the passport with a visa.
