Review Topic: K1 Visa

We get to embassy 1 hour before our appointment, the officers at entrance have our names, we pass for security and go to the second floor. There we pass for the first guy, him check if we have all documents for interview. My device is check many times everything because have couples can't continue without the documents, this guy will give to you a form with simple questions, don't worry him will explain how to fill this, after we wait for the next officer.

The next officer ask for my name and check the documents the first guy check too, ask simples question like address, birth day, complete name, for the first time we look our package, I-129F, was very big with many notes. The officer check everything and say for we back to chairs and wait for the interview, during this time we listen everything the other couples say in the interview and if they are approved or not. Don't be nervous, every case is a case.

The next was the Consul, him say my name and we go ... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

My Fiancé's interview went well as she and her 8 year old daughter attended together on October 6, 2015. The consulate told her at the interview she was approved and the VISA should arrive in the Passport in 8 to 10 business days.
I had read not to purchase airline tickets until the VISA is issued. But I found a great price nearly a month before the interview flying from the US to and their tickets to fly home with me 5 days later. I made sure I gave them 13 days past the interview date. But it did include two weekends which counting really only left 8 business days between her interview and our schedule departure for the United States.

I checked the online status at the state department on October 13, and again it indicated the visa status, "Ready"
I sent an email on October 13, inquiring about the courier tracking number I had not received. I called the consulate in Porto Alegre on October 13. Today October 14, I logged in a day before my US de... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

I'll write two separate reviews for medical exam and interview itself:

Medical:
I had my appointment with Dr Garrido in Rio de Janeiro, exactly one week before the interview. I scheduled my appointment with him 2-3 weeks before, all made by email with his effective secretary, Mrs Tania. I live far from Rio, so I flew the same morning, collected blood samples in the recommended lab close to his office (no appointment needed) and made my X-ray in the recommended clinic (2-3 blocks from the doctor's office, you must scheduled before). I chose to stay in Rio between my medical and the interview. I had all vaccines taken care before. The doctor is very gentle and professional, all went well. Tania told me the exams would be in the office within 24 hours, I chose to pick up the sealed envelope in the doctor/s office and take it with me to the interview (yes, it is possible - don't open it!!!) because I wasn't sure the mail (correios) would deliver it on time.

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Let me start by saying that my process ran super smoothly and that I had checked every information and document several times. I was pretty certain I had everything I needed (and I did), but I was a little nervous. So, it's normal to be anxious and nervous. Also, for reference, I don't have any children, I have never been married, I have never had visa denied, or anything like that. So bare that in mind when I talk about documents.

My interview was scheduled for 8:20, and I got to the Consulate at 7:20. I found the line outside of the building for the K1 Visa with no problem and I put my cellphone to be stored in the private service provided there. It costs R$7 and you pay when you retrieve your phone. The people there are super nice and they show you the exit you'll use to come out of the building, and where you will retrieve your phone. Remember: no electronics or big purses allowed inside the Consulate!

Soon after I was in line, the famous Alex appeared... read complete review
