Things were very smooth. I spent the night at the "Aeroporto Othon Hotel": 3 stars, basic and good enough for me, breakfast at 6am was important, and it is very close to the consulate, so I went walking in the morning to the consulate. Things were very smooth to me, placed the documents in order, talked to the person on the window about the docs, took finger prints and to the interview. Until then, everyone are brazilian employers, all of them were very polite to me, and helpful to all I could see that needed assistance. I was the first to be interviewed, I believe it is because I had no problems at all with my documents. But those who had forgotten something were given blank forms to fill, or could go outside to take pictures, nothing bad. The interview started in portuguese, and he took a while to ask about my english and then we spoke in english. The questions were about me and my fiance, my family, my trip to meet him and the fact I spent 6 months with him. Very quick, though I was a little lost in a question about the game we play together, I got embarassed I couldn't understand his question, even though it was in portuguese. The consul was very polite to me, when he asked for further info on my fiance, he said it nicelly, said "you are saying in general ways, I want more details, I don't know him". Then after all he said all seemed in order, and I double checked asking if it was approved, which he said yes, instructed me to the desk for that green paper and I was good to go to pay T.N.T's tax of sending the passport home. I was so happy I went walking all the way to the airport, to view a little of that beautiful part of Rio
