Interview was super easy! The Consul makes you very comfortable, like if she was a friend and you were telling your story to her.
I got there early, around 7am. 5 people were there already. Most of them had no proofs of relationship (pictures, etc, etc) and were missing documentation. I had everything ready and in order.
We got in, waited and by 10am, I was the second to be interviewed.
First we sat and the lady helper handed in a paper sheet with the order that the documents had to be put in (no need to say that I had everything in order already - duh!). She had her specific order, even though 99% of the people there was not ready yet. She kept calling the names in her order, but no one was ready, so she called me because she knew I had everything prepared.
I went in the first booth and the guy there gave me my original birth and marriage certificate back. He also gave me my husband's 2006 and 2005 tax receipts (he said he... read complete review

We had the interview at the Rio de Janeiro Consulate yesterday; it was quick and painless and I will give you all the details here!
We got to the Consulate just before 7 AM. We were the second ones on line; about 20 people showed up after us. Around 7:30, a woman came by and checked off our names on a list and marked down where we were in line (i.e. put a 2 next to our name).
At 7:40 we went in, went through security check (you are allowed to take your cell phone as long as it is turned off). We went up to the second floor and sat down. A very nice young woman sat at a desk in the same room (all of the windows are in an enclosed cubicle) and was available to answer questions, etc. She came by and gave us a list of documents to put together. I told her that we had already sent most of the documents to the NVC. She said, no problem, just put the passport, one 5x5cm photo and the medical exam envelope together to hand in. After about ten minutes, she called ... read complete review

My enterview was on february 20, 2008.
I went to the consulate in Rio with my 9 years old daughter (K2).
We got in there very early in the morning, and there was already a line there (diferent then the line for turist visas).
They gave us numbers according to the position in the line, and while we were waiting they gave us a list to check and have our documents in the right order.
A man speaking in portuguese called me in a window, and checked all documents. Then asked me another picture because my earrings were big. So I had to leave the consulate and take new pictures ( there is a place crossing the street).
Then I came back and gave him the new pictures.
Probably this is the reason that then we were the last to be called by the consul.
She was a very nice woman, trying to speak portuguese.
She asked me if I visited my future husband in USA. Whe I said that I didn't.
She asked me why I didn't aply for a turist visa to ... read complete review

We had our interview on June 18. It went very well despite the long wait. We arrived at the Embassy at 6:30 for our 7:45 interview. My wife and kids had time to get something to eat before we went into the Embassy. We were able to enter the Embassy at 8:00. The line on the outside wasn't very long. When we entered, an immigration office handed us a list showing the documents needed and the order. We had all the documents and in the correct order. The immigration officer asked for receipt for payment of immigration visa and visa insurance, we thought we had already paid when we filed the I-130 petition, but He said that payment was for the petition. We needed to pay for the immigration visa and visa insurance. The payment was $355.00 + $45.00 x 3. Lucky, I never leave home without my American Express Card. The immigration officer came back later and wanted us to find where in the IRS handbook that shows my income is not taxable and show where in the interview. I tried to ex... read complete review
