My interview last about 2 minutes, the pre-screen about 5 minutes. Everyone was lovely. Make sure you have your medicals (no Xray needed at interview), passport and 3kg Express Post satchel + any other docs they may have requested.
I had a mountain of evidence. Seriously, about 100kg and they didn't look at it. He asked me:-
How did you meet?
When did you get married?
Have you both been married before? I say 'yes' ... he says, 'we seem to have misplaced his divorce decree. Do you have a copy'. I did, and I gave it to him.
He then asked my daughter what grade she was in.
Asked me what I did for a living and if I wanted to continue doing that.
Asked me where we wanted our green cards mailed to.
Handed me 2 sheets of paper (one for me and one for my daughter) which read - CONGRATULATIONS, YOUR VISA IS APPROVED.
All the staff I spoke with were lovely. They may not have asked for our evidence bu... read complete review

The interview was not even really an interview. We waited for a while until we were called to the desk where we submitted all the required paperwork. The man asked us some questions in a casual conversation way (things like - do you like living in Australia? Have you ever been to the US? How long have you been married... etc) and then sent us to another window to pay. Then we were told congratulations, you have been approved, you can go now and your package containing your visa will arrive in a couple of days.
Note: We changed addresses between submitting our application to apply and then the actual application, and although we gave them a new pre-paid self addressed envelope at the interview they ended up using the previous one meaning my visa went to the wrong address. Luckily we tracked it down but just thought it was worth mentioning.

Interview went very smoothly. A few questions asked at the last window and I was told my visa was granted. Making sure you have EXACTLY what they ask for is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. I saw two families turned away because of missing documentation.

Arrived at MLC center by train at 8am ready for the 9am appointment. Went through security with no problems and was directed to take the lift by guards to the 59th floor for my interview. Went through more security on that floor before entering and took my ticket. Waited around 30mins for my first interview which went smoothly. Since all payments, fees and documents were done through NVC here in the States, I only had to provide my medical papers, passport and 3kg express envelope. After that, I waited around 10mins and was called up again where I was told everything was approved and an interview would soon follow. Sat down again and was called for the interview. I was asked by the lady how my wife and I met, how many times had I been to the US, how many times she came to Australia, what I planned on doing for a job in the US, where my wife was born and finally, to produce some photos of the two of us together. I produced our wedding photos and after some light chatting, she approved m... read complete review
