So just had my interview this morning and thought I should share my experience!
So I arrived at the consulate at 6:30am, and was completely alone. Yay! (arrive as early as you can because once 7 hits, there is a line down the street) shortly after 7, lady came outside asks to see your Loomis Courier confirmation page, and your passport, this is only to make sure that you have chosen an office to have your visa sent to.
After she checked my stuff, I was sent inside to go through security. Have to admit, the guards were pretty unnecessarily rude, but hey, it just added to the prison atmosphere those first steps have haha. After being cleared with security, I was sent downstairs to sit in a waiting room. After about 10 minutes, a security guard came down and told us to go into an elevator and when we get out a lady will be there to help us.
Once you get on the interview floor, you're divided into groups as of where you are sitting depending on your visa type. I wasn't sitting for very long before being called to the first window to hand in all my documents. The lady there was very nice, and answered any questions I had. After collecting my things, she took my fingerprints and told me to sit down and wait to be called up.
I was sitting for about five minutes before I was called to the interview window. The guy I had was super nice and that definitely eased my mind. As of the interview itself, there is no question you wouldn't know the answer to as long as your relationship is genuine. He basically asked me how I met my fiance, have we ever been married, where my fiance was from, what he does for a living and what our wedding plans are. I saw him notice my engagement ring and he asked about it. After that, the all famous "Welcome to the United States of America" flyer.
and that was it. I almost feel silly for being so nervous. As long as you are fully prepared and have everything, you'll be fine. I rate this a 4/5...security guards were jerks lol. |

Went there for the biometrics for AOS and EAD. It's located near a college and is downtown, so parking can be limited.
Aside from that, arrived 30 minutes early to our appointment, and we were done in 15-20 minutes, so we ended up leaving the building 10 minutes before our scheduled time. So apparently being early isn't an issue, at least for biometrics.
Security was nice, fairly straight forward. Take off belts, empty pockets, put everything in a bucket to go through the X-ray machine, etc. The appointment letter says "cell phones are prohibited" so we left ours in the car (make sure you lock the car and keep them out of plain sight if you do), but as of today (09/30/2015), they didn't seem to mind if you brought your cell phone with you, you need need to turn it off and keep it off.
All else being said, don't show up late and expect sympathy for whatever reason. This office was 2.5 hours from where we live, so we stayed overnight in the area at a hotel (Park East Hotel is pretty reasonably priced and clean for a place to stay, and it's within a mile of the USCIS office).
As for the workers, they were what you would expect. Firm, but fair. They were nice, but you can tell they've had to put up with a lot of different excuses and experiences for people not complying with whatever they need to do. Just make sure you are on time (or early, it worked for us!), have the required documentation, and everything should be quick and painless. |

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
