My fiance arrived at 7.45 to go through security and recieved the ticket for 3rd in-line for immigrant visas. He waited around 30-45 minutes to be called back, then waited for them to look over his paperwork. Once that cleared he was asked 2 questions: "How long have you known your fiance?" and "Where is your fiance at the moment?" and was approved. He recieved his visa in the mail within 2 posting days

My K1 petition was approved in less then 2 hours which was great...also want to say that the two girls that checked and interviewed me were just lovely and it pays to be really polite to these guys... so you get the most information out of them as possible if something goes wrong.

Okay... got up at 5am and caught the train into the city at 6.15am - i got to the MLC centre at 7am, i sat downstairs and spoke to my fiance on the phone for about 20 minutes, i noticed everyone heading up to the elevator so i also headed in and got out at level 10.
Security was just opening up and off went my bag - mobile phone switched off - and walk thru the metal detector, i didnt have to take my shoes off at all.... thankfully.... lol.
i was told to sit in the front row in the waiting area - i was the only one with a K1 visa at that time. ...
then first row was filled up and asked to head to the elevator head up to lev... read complete review

Loke's Review
Okay...firstly hi everyone and sorry about the extended absence, but it has been the most hectic time this last few weeks. I know everyone said things would go quick once we were approved but I think we might have set some kind of record. From what we have been able to work out, the NVC received our approved petition on May 30, and from there it has taken 34 days to interview. The Consulate put me under pressure with my letter of appointment too, which arrived only 6 days before my interview date...lucky I found out via an email to Rings the Friday previous, or booking flights an accomodation would have been stressful.
So what happens in Sydney...
I land after a relatively painless flight (middle seat...I hate middle seats lol) and the backpackers hostel I am staying at offers free airport transfers if you stay 3 nights, which I am. So I call them to arrange the transfer and then have to call back and ask them to hold off when... read complete review

We arrived in SYDNEY the day before our interview. We landed at the airport and took the train into the City. Trains are located one level down from the baggage claim. It costs about $12.20 and because we stayed at the infamous Travelodge on Phillip St we got off at St James station, about 15mins ride from the domestic terminal.
We took the Elizabeth St exit, turned right onto Elizabeth St and then right on King St and then left on Phillip St. It is about a 7min walk from St James station to the Travelodge. There is an entry on Elizabeth St, but it really is for the pokies. You can take this exit but will be walking through the bar and pokies with suitcases!
The Travelodge is a 3 star hotel. We were there for 2 nights and got a centre room. These rooms overlook a fake painted Italian Villa courtyard and the other rooms on the opposite side and there is no access for guests. This hotel is good for 1 or 2 nights but not really anthing longer than tha... read complete review

The Interview all went great with no hiccup. The US consulate personnel and consul officers are friendly, professional and respectful. All instructions I received were very clear. I was only asked minor questions even though my USC husband and I brought a big suitcase full of evidence of our marriage and ongoing relationship. It did take us up to 4 hours. It was a very happy experience overall.
