Sydney US consulate was amazing!
They respond to emails VERY quickly! So if your a stress-head like me- dont worry- they are great at answering all questions.
First off...It took FOREVER to get my NOA2! but as soon as it arrived in Australia things went so quick!
I had my packet 3 ready to send off (i had my medical done as soon as my NOA2 was approved!) and included in my packet 3- I wrote a letter asking for the nearest available interview time as I will be a god-mother very soon over in the states!
Within 3 days of sending my Packet 3 they sent my packet 4! with an interview date only 1 week away!
They stressed me out at first by sending the wrong checklist saying I hadnt done a few things-which I knew I had done...but then after a quick email- they sent me a 'revised' checklist.
Interview was EASY-PEEZY!...I drove in (I live in sydney) parked in the convention center car park (much cheaper!) and took a taxi to the M... read complete review

Hey
Well I had to fly down the night before on a monday night, as my interview was at 8am... Stayed at the Great Southern on George street... about a 15-20min walk to the Consulate..... I arrived at the consulate at 7:30am, there was about 5 of us waiting upstairs... they let us in just a little bit before 8am, did the appointment check with the letter you get in P4.. and then check your bags and then you leave your bags there... I then sat there with a couple of others being all nervous with quiet a few folders full of stuff compared to others with stuff all haha but oh well.. got told to go upstairs, went to another window and the lady checked my appointment and then buzzed me through a door.. i took a ticket and sat down for like 2 mins and then got called to a window to check paper work and give her the envelope and passport and stuff (i left my passport in my bag ooopse) after all the hassel of getting my passport back, i sat there and waiting about 5 mins waiting... read complete review

My interview was scheduled for 14th June 2011, but since I had all the documents ready I requested the Consulate to bring my interview date closer to end of May. My Interview date was re-scheduled for 24th May 2011. Consulate response to the emails is really very professional.
My Interview was scheduled at 9:00 AM on the day. Boarded the 1st Flight from Melbourne (Avalon Airport, 6:10 AM) and reached Sydney at 7:30 AM, lucky not to have delays in flight. Didn't wanted to stay at hotel the previous night as it is waste of money.
Straight away took the train from Domestic Terminal to St James Station (Closest to MLC Center) which took like 15 minutes in train.
Entered the MLC center 8:15 AM, took the Elevator to Lvl 10 (US Embassy Reception)
Checked my appointment details and told me to wait, where someone authorized directed me to Lvl 59.
Got in, took the ticket and waited before I was called to counter to verif... read complete review

Very easy Got questioned a bit about children to previous relationship but IO was satisfied after only a couple of questions. Did however have to wait just over a hour to get called up to the first window.

It was pretty straight forward. Hardest part is the waiting, not losing your paperwork on the way (almost left it at outside channel 7 studios) and choosing the right elevator (which I didn't the first time).
Once you get past security and make it to where you're supposed to be and take a ticket it is just a matter of waiting and watching others on their journey.
I don't remember the questions as I have waited too long to write this review but they were easy enough. You will go from one widow to another, get your finger prints taken then eventually after alot of waiting you will get the O.K. and you will walk out of there with the biggest smile on your face and feel able to breath.
All round a pleasant journey.
