I walked in half hour early at 1045 and they told me to come and line up at 11 (my interview time was 11:15) and waited in line to show my passport and go through security. They ask you to take out electronics and chords/chargers etc and turn them off, and they don't let you take anything up except your paperwork. I couldn't even take my pen. I'm not sure if you can take watches, but I didn't have one so once I didn't have my phone, there was no way to tell the time. No clocks anywhere.
I then go pointed towards a desk where the ladies checked my paperwork and then they zoomed me up to level 59 (fastest elevator ever). Then a man checked my name off and I went through the 'heavy door' - and it is heavy haha so pull!
Then told to line up to the left and when it was my turn I went up to the counter and the man asked for my paperwork.
He told me to sit down and he would call my name. I waited about 10 mins (approx) and he called me back up and said ... read complete review

Easy, in and out. You check in, take an elevator and go through security. An American lady looked over my documents, then I waited in the sitting area to be called over. Shortly after I was called over, a man asked me a few questions at the window, looked over my papers and said "I am approving your visa". Was all very quick. Gave them my passport, then left. Ran into the man interviewing me in the elevator and we had a brief chat, very friendly.

Almost painless process!
I worked myself into a little ball of stress the day before -not at all helped by my flight being cancelled! My appointment was at 8, I got there at 7.40, there was already 20-30 people waiting. Went through 'airport security' they even made me leave my sunglasses at reception! Then they organised all my papers into a folder and sent me upstairs. It was a 10 minute wait to get called up - a nice lady just asked some questions about my fiance's address, phone number and minor organisational questions - no troubles. Then I sat down for 20 more minutes before getting called up for the proper interview - shaking like a leaf by this point, super nervous, wobbly voice, the whole lot ...But it was cruisy! A very friendly young man questioned me for all of 5 minutes (no joke) - where did we meet, how did the relationship progress, who was our cosigner - that was it! He stared intently into my eyes the whole time but despite that it was very relaxed. I t... read complete review

I had all my docs prepared apart from my medical (which was to be done the day after).
I hovered around the lifts from 7am and was last in the door of be lift, so first out. Second in line altogether. A fairly fast screening process. I am a diabetic and wear an insulin pump and they said I should be carrying a doctor letter whenever I go? No! But of course I was allowed in.
After security and document checking, sent to L59 in the fastest lift I've ever been in.
Another check behind the main door (warning: it's heavy!) and straight in. Got my number. 002!
Called up, had documents checked, asked about my medical and that was OK. Told to sit down after giving prints.
About 10 mins later called for my interview. Here goes! I had a lovely young bloke, probably early 30s. We smiled and had a bit of chit chat as his computer was loading.
He swing Into the questions:
"How did you meet?"

Took around 5 minutes, and verbally approved on the spot. The lady was lovely. Excellent process.
