The whole experience was a whole lot easier than what I had anticipated! I was stressing out before I got there as I had forgotten the 3kg Express Envelope, but the lovely lady, after she finished organising what documents were needed, she told me to just duck across the hall to a print shop which sell them and come back. Did that, then headed through security screening, they held onto my phone and sunnies, watch, documents and boots went through the scanner, then I headed up to the 59th floor, all the while being shown the way by security guards.
Went in took a ticket sat down, not even 5 minutes passed was called up to have fingerprints done, and then sat back down until number was called again, about 15-20 minutes I was called again, went to the window the CO, was so nice, asked me about 5 questions, never looked at my file once while I was in front of him. After the last question he asked, he picked up my file from the right of him, closed it and put it in another p... read complete review

Straight away I saw on the desk my birth certificate that I provided and I knew straight away that we weren't going to be approved on the day =( I knew he was going to say there was something wrong with it! He told us that we needed to provide the household registration record instead and provided us with a print out of the information that can be found on the website. Needless to say we were so disappointed!
Anyway in regards to the interview. The wait was long but the interview was pretty quick. He only asked a few questions about how we met and dates. He asked what my fiance was doing in Australia. Asked about the times we have met. Asked about date of engagement. Pretty pain free. The man was pleasant enough.

Greetings,
We had a great experience. As many have mentioned previously, very high level of security. We went up to the 10th floor, had paperwork sorted and then went through security screening.I forgot to print out DS-160 and the lady said it was okay and if I needed they would direct me where to go an print it. We were escorted to the elevator which took us up to level 68? Again, officer checked our passports and buzzed through the doors. Walked up to machine and selected visa option (2 options only). We got a receipt with a number and then we waited until our number was called. So our appointment was 8:15 but it seemed like whoever got a ticket first, got called first.
Anyway, the interview was for my spouse but I tagged along as his English is limited. We finally got called after an hour, lady sorted our paperwork again and checked all originals, grabbed our file, and asked questions like "have you been to the US?", "are you in the army?", "previous marriage... read complete review

The interview itself was really painless, just asked a few general questions about my fiance; where she worked, where she lived etc. Took less than five minutes and they told me I was approved. The actual building and procedure leading to the interview is all very high security and some what intimidating. You begin by going through a metal detector and surrendering your belongings, then you are taken to an elevator that takes you up 40 floors, from that point you go into another office where all of your conversations will be through bulletproof glass. You show your id and get buzzed through to the interview room. The interview room is setup like a bank with a bunch of different windows, again, more bulletproof glass and talking through microphones. The staff were all really nice and polite, it is just the building that makes you feel like you are in a George Orwell novel.
