We arrived to the embassy 30 minutes before the appointment and had to wait outside but we were the first in line and were helped almost right away. Maybe 15-20 minutes total wait.
The first window my wife and I went to had a really nice lady who went through a giant checklist of everything that was required. We had everything and there were two corrections that the lady helped us fix with white-out and then just asked a couple of clarifying questions and organized our folder. She then directed us to sit down and wait to get fingerprinted at another window.
After 30-40 minutes she got finger-printed and then was directed to sit down again and wait for the consular to review everything.
The consular was a very nice and friendly interviewer and asked us where support was going to come from and how long we knew eachother. Just a couple of minutes and then he said, you can pick up your passport with the visa in it on Friday at 3pm! Great experience all around.
Advice to everyone going for an interview: Be respectful, courteous, have all your paperwork together, be friendly!
