My CR1 interview on January 23, 2024 was easy. I must say, I have a very solid case. My USC wife has been living in the Netherlands for over 9 years and we have known each other for 8 years. Been living together for 4 years and have a child together.
I was in and out in around 75 minutes, mostly waiting between conversations. My appointment was at 8am with 6 others. We were called one by one to a window and that woman checked our original civil documents + passport. Then we had to wait again for the interview. After taking an oath, the officer askes me questions such as:
- Has either of you been married before?
- How long have you known your wife?
- Where does she live?
- What is her job?
- Where are you going to live in the US and why?
- What is your occupation?
Congrats, excellent case. Your visa is approved.
I asked her about the fact that NVC changed my last name (I applied with my married name. ... read complete review

Had to show my passport outside and say I had an appointment. Then through a metal censor. Immediately to window 2.
I gave all the documents there, I think the VOG original, birth certificate original and copy, I-134 + supporting docs and gave my fingerprints.
Then I waited a while before going to a different window. They asked: when did you meet? Where? When did we last see each other? What kind of work does he do? What kind of work do you do? Studied what? Where does he live?
And then 'do you want to get married?' So I said very happily 'yes!' And then she said it was approved.

I had all the documents requested, arrived early and was the first one in line. Took short time, got asked some questions on where I met my husband, how long we were married for and what is his job in California. Since we were married for 2 years and 2 days on the day of the interview they changed my visa from CR1 to IR1.

I arrived 30 minutes early, but was let in by the guards.
I had brought an accordian folder, but was not allowed to bring it in past security.
I had to wait in the room adjacent to security. Once it was my turn, I had to go to a small lectern first. There they checked whether I had all my documents and copies thereof.
Oddly, they asked for a copy of my passport, which wasn't in the requirements sent by the embassy by e-mail. They checked for my passport (+copy), two pass photos, birth certificate (+copy), police certificate, form i-134, and the DS-160 confirmation page.
Should you for some reason not have copies, there is a copying machine in the room. However, try to bring your own copies, as you will only inconvenience the staff and delay your own appointment.
Once my documents were checked and found to be in order, I had to wait again before being called to the first real booth. There the officer took my documents and asked ... read complete review
