Overall it was a smooth process. I was with my fiancee as she went through the process. First you are escorted into the waiting area to have a seat. Then my fiancee (and only her) was escorted to a booth where she received her number provided that her application was in order. Then we wait for her number to be called for biometrics and primary screening. First they called her for biometrics. No problems there. Make sure your fingers are warm  . The biometric scanner does not like cold fingers. Then we were called for primary screening. We were both asked questions, but they mostly asked her about evidence of relationship. They asked me for my most recient W2 and 1040 transcript. Then we wait for final screening. At Final screening, the consolate officer was very official with us, which made us a little nervous. He asked if we knew some names that we had never heard of. We then found out that her biometrics were mixed up with someone else. Officer corrected the issue, asked a few questions, then approval. Overall a good experience. It did take all morning, 7am to 12:30pm. But not a hard process at all.
