Very cordial, but serious. Checked documents thoroughly. If you have all documents required and in the prescribed order, along with the proper photos (you must show your ears), AND the $131.00 paid with the proper receipts, there is no reason they should deny the request.
Cant stress this enough...HAVE YOUR DOCUMENTS IN ORDER !!!! Goto the following website for those required documents and order.

I came into US with a J1 Visa, my experience on the consulate was satisfactory. Officers were very polite. The interview was conducted in English and was actually 4 simple questions.

My K1 visa journey at Rio:
- I stayed at Hotel Formule 1 (R$ 99 daily, about U$ 50), the room is really small and there is no room service, but it works if you just want a place to sleep, it is like 10 minutes from the consulate in a cab and it costs about R$ 7 (U$ 3.50) to get there. Don't expect too much from this part of the city, it is on the center of the downtown, and it is *dirty*. And at night it is really scary, lots of bums getting food from trash on the streets.
- When you get at the consulate, there will be a huge line, don't go there! Ask the consulate people about immigration visa, there will be a person there helping people, and she will tell you to go upstairs, to the immigration department. If she is not there (she is the one helping upstairs too), you will have to wait in line.
- To get there, you will need to leave all the electronic stuff on the reception, go on the xray, then ask for the immigration room, or just foll... read complete review

The interview process wasn't too bad. Our interview was scheduled for 7:45 am, and we were finished by 11:30 am. Most of the time was spent waiting.
I was only irritated because we had spent a lot of time doing translations and I had spent about $200 on a certificate stating that she had never been married, also with a translation.
I specifically emailed the embassy asking about the requirement for translations and the marriage status document, and was informed that they were required.
At the interview, they gave this document and the translations back and said they weren't required.
Obviously communication between the people who answer the emails and conduct the interviews is minimal, and it wasted time and money.
Also, it took nearly three months to get the interview from the time I received the NOA 2.
