Got there at 6:30 and there was 2 couples already waiting. As usual, a big lane for non-immigrant, and by 7:30, a lane of around 15 people for immigrant-v all of them married ones.
The consular officer told us to present only the docs that were not send to NVC - in my case Medical Exam. At 9 o´clock, I was called by another consular officer for present the missing docs, pics and original docs (Birth, Marriage, Police clearences).
* PS about this moment: He asked me if my husband address has changed in CA, and that was the right moment to tell him yes, and I gave them the new address.. he asked me to write on the DS 230 form. Then, he look at my pics and said I need to shot them again because my ears weren´t enough clear.. even after I showed him how small they were... In fact, he asked me to go out and take new ones with pen caps behind my ears... (heheheh) I also mentined to him that I had new original of Birth and MArriage certificate because th... read complete review

My fiancee and I got to the consulate around 7:00 am. There were about four people ahead of us. They started letting people in around 7:30 checking off names from a list to make sure they had their appointment that day. Once in, we passed throug a security check point and were directed to the second floor where the K1 visa interviews take place.
Once upstairs, there are three steps to the visa interview process.
1) First a lady calls the applicants by order of arrival to ensure that they have all the required documents and that they are place in the correct order. She was friendly and informative. The major issue people had at that point was that they had the wrong police certificates. That is, that they had requested it from the justice department and it was supposed to be from the police department. In our case, we had the right one from the secretaria de seguranca publica. Once the lady reviewed and put all the documents in order, you'll wait to... read complete review

As expected the visa was denied due to her overstay of her visa past the age of 18. Thankfully she is eligable for the waiver and we got all our paper work almost done for the interview on the 10th of december. We still got a lot more waiting but we are confident and happy that another step is being taken. The interview was very short (once again as expected) and straight foward. the officer was polite but firm. Towards the end of the interview we received some positive feedback from the officer which made us a little less sad. For all of those waiting for the interview my only piece of advice is reasearch as much as possible so you'll be prepare for whatever happens, as we were.

We arrived at the Consulate around 6:30am. Our appointment was at 7:45 am as were all the other K1 visa applicnts. We were he first in line then one guard told us we were in the wrong line only to find out later that it indeed was the correct line. After getting back in the correct line only to be about 11th in line now. We were aloud to go through security check 5 at a time. Once through the security check we had to go up to the second floor by stairs. That was a little difficult with a baby stroller. Once inside we had to fill out form DS-230 part 1. Word to the wise for anyone that files any K visas you have to have this form. It is available at the consulate. We were called up to the desk and the lady there checked our paperwork and gave us back anything they did not need. That is where we found out that the State police record my fiance got was not the right one. Next we went to window #1 and the gentleman there looked through the paperwork and stated that we were missing the stat... read complete review
