Our appointment was set for 8am but we got there at 7:20am, went to the 1st security guard who asked for the medical sealed envelope, told me to open it, then he checked our passports, and let us in.
Once inside you leave all cellphones, gums, candy, etc. they give you a number for you retrieve your stuff once you leave the embassy. Then we sat down with all the people waiting, after about 10 minutes a young lady came asking for Immigrant Visa Applicants, we stood up, and went through another security checkpoint and entered the area where you are interviewed. They gave us a number, and we sat down to wait. We waited for about 20 min, then we were called by a local Nicaraguan employee who asked for my Birth Certificate, Police Record, Marriage Certificate, and 2 passport photos. I had everything except the photos, so then she checked what the NVC had sent them and found the 2 photos, she was a bit serious at first, but then when she saw my birthday was on Oct 29th she was nice a... read complete review

Once we arrived at the Consulate, we had to wait outside the building for approximately 45 minutes (We were really early).
We then were called by an Officer to get in line, of which we were then split in two different lines, one for resident visa applications and the other for non-residential visas. Several questions to the officer later, he explained we had to rip open the medical envelope of my fiancee's since no closed envelopes are allowed inside the Consulate.
We were then allowed to go inside the building to again wait until everybody had gone through the metal detector as well as releasing any makeup, drinks, electronics, etc.. a la airport security. After, we were given a number to pickup our items once we were done with the interview. After security, we entered a large holden area with several chairs. However, we got there so early, that all we had to do was go directly to the second metal detector screening to finally enter the Visa Applicants ... read complete review

I will not give a detailed description of the US Consulate office since Mike did solid job of describing the place. Every detail he gave was a 100% accurate.
We were scheduled for our interview at 8:00 am and arrived at 7:30. My fiancée forgot the two required photos in the hotel but luckily there was a man that approached us and offered to take pictures on the spot for $20. We then went through security check and got a number (207). We waited for about an hour and 15 minutes before we were called up. We were serviced by a female clerk. She asked for different documents. We had a hard time hearing here since she was behind a thick glass window and it seemed like the intercom was not working at all. We had to ask her to repeat herself several times which only made me more nervous than I already was. Also, she was not as friendly as I would have hoped. Once she collected all the forms she asked for our evidence supporting the validity of our relationship. She asked why w... read complete review

Our interview was scheduled for 8:00 am and we arrived at 7:45. We didn't know it until we got there but the Embassy opens at 7:30 and we were given number 206 (6th in line)at the second security check. The security checks are no different than going through the security at an airport, except as stated in previous reviews, no phones, water, etc. and they do have you open your medical envelope before entering. Once past the second security point, you sit in an air conditioned room (which was great since it was 95 degrees that day,lol). There are 6 windows and a separate door ( bulletproof glass, a small pass through tray and terrible microphone/speaker system). On this day 4 embassy employees working the windows. There are two restrooms and a small play area for children.
We waited about 1-1/2 hours before my fiancee's name was called and we both went up, introduced ourselves and passed along papers as the clerk asked for them. The clerk quickly learned that I don't speak a lot ... read complete review
