We had interview at 2:00 on Tuesday afternoon. We had visited the embassy before and not had too much trouble with parking, but this time there were a lot of people at La Rural, right next to the embassy, so the car and pedestrian traffic in the whole area was just crazy!! We still arrived 15 minutes early, the guard had us check in with window #1 in the booth outside and we went right in. There's no need to wait in any lines where the tourist visa applicants are, although by this time of day there wasn't a huge crowd for that either (mostly in the morning). No problem at all with both fiances going through for interview. [NOTE: if you don't have an interview appt, USC will be able to enter embassy to ask questions/etc, but fiance will not be able to go in.]
After going through airport-type security (no electronics- leave your phone in the car!) we walked through an outdoor corridor to the consulate office. When you first enter, you check in at a desk and will receive a number (... read complete review

One more comment.
They do take their time in issuing visas. They didn't put ours into mail until 2 weeks after the interview. Allow plenty of time to allow for visa delivery.

If Going through IR-1/CR-1 for Argentina Please Read these pointers.
- All police certificates need to be requested with exception to law 51 (con excepcion a ley 51) I don't know what this means but either the NVC or the Embassy will reject a pcc without this specification.
- If you were born or married in Argentina but not Buenos Aires, the legal documents need to have a validation stamp from the Minestero del Interior. It is free and painless, but necessary.
- Proof of US citizenship needs to be shown for co-sponsors on I-864. Scan of passport or copy of birth certificate should suffice.
We were delayed on seperate occasions for all of these!
- Some of our friends recomended Dr. Kelly for the medical and were right. His office is right across the street from the lab as well.
My wife's experience was pretty standard. She stood in line, was let in 5 minutes before the time. Documen... read complete review

We got to the US Embassy 15 minutes before like suggested. We had to wait outside for a few minutes. It was a bit unorganized outside with the guards and different lines for different visas. There were only 2 other people apart from us there for their IR-1/CR-1 interview. After the security and bag check we entered the main building where they offer citizen services and visa interviews. The work/travel visa interviews are given in these little booths--the interviewees essentially stand while they're interviewed. The Immigrant Visa interviews are conducted in a separate room where you sit down. First there is a document review and then we waited for an hour for our actual interview. It was pretty upsetting because they told us that we were missing 2 documents. The NVC had sent us the checklist saying everything was fine and I had double checked several times. The document reviewer said we would still have our actual interview, which of course was good, but hard because after they l... read complete review

I waited there for almost 4 hours. I was the last of 15 people. Some people got a green sheet of paper with things missing. Only one girl had her visa denied because she stayed in the US illegally in the past and didn't have a waiver. The interview only lasted for 1 minute, yes, 1 minute. The consul asked when I met my husband, when and where we got married, if my husband had lived in Rio, what did he do during his staying there. And, he said, your visa has been approved! You are all set 
Now i have to wait for the passport to be delivered to my address.
I am so happy!!!
It was completely underwhelming!!!!
Good luck for all of you!!!
