My interview was today and I couldnt be happier!
My appointment was at 8.20 and that was exactly the time I got there, thanks to the intense traffic in Rio. Everybody was very friendly, I was guided to the second floor where I filled a form with personal info and then I was called for the fingerprints and the guy was very nice and helpful. They handled me a paper with my rights after entrance in USA.
Then.. interview time!
believe you or not, he only asked me one single question: how did you meet?
after that he looked up some things on the computer and finally said: your visa is approved! yayyyy!!!
Sweet part: After the approval I said thank you so much, this is probably the best day of my life so the man replied: the best days of your life just started, congratulations!

When I got to the Consulate, there wasn't a "line" for K1 Visa; I just went to a cop and asked him where to go. He then called someone to come pick me up and this guy took me to the entrance and then pointed me where to go.
After getting to the second floor, Alex (yes, the famous Alex) will ask you to sit down and, since they changed the interview booking and visa payment systems, he'll give you two pieces of paper; one you'll fill out with some information like address (your own city, your fiancé(e)'s and the one in Rio) phone numbers and RDJ number. The other piece of paper with all the documents in a specific order - do your best to have ALL your documents filled out correctly, organized in a separate folder and follow all instructions you'll receive via email and online. This will save you a lot of time (possibly make your overall interview time way faster) and make Alex really happy!
After this you'll be called to a window where someone will look through y... read complete review

We had our interview today and were approved. We felt confident but were still a bit anxious as my finacé had been denied thrice before for a travel visa.
We chose to try to do the whole process here in Rio during one trip with our plan to fly to the US from here. We have to admit we are a bit nervous for the visa issuance due to the software issue that happened in Jun but we have recently seen that more 300,000+ visas were issued this past week to bring the backlog of 350,000 down. They are back on schedule we hope as our flight to the US is next week.
We came to Rio with the intent to do the medical one week prior to the interview so that all the documents would be at the consulate for the interview. It worked.
We completed the X-ray and blood work on Friday 26 Jun so that all the results would be in Dr. Garrido's office by our appointment on 30 Jun which would be one week before the interview. Both of the offices for the exams were very... read complete review

Most terrifying day of my entire life! Lets start off like that.
I was denied 2 tourist visas before, so my experience in the consulate was traumatic to say the least. This time, I was even more nervous, due to the situation. I had my wedding reception scheduled in Brazil for the 1st of may, and my tickets to come to America were already bought for may 4th. So, that interview was everything at that moment, and it was on april 14th.
Got at the consulate very early in the morning and went to the second floor, where the immigrant visas are proceeded. There were about 15 fiances/spouses already waiting on their interview. I was the LAST one to be called. Waited on those chairs for about two hours (can you imagine it?). When it was finally my time, it didn't even take 5 minutes talking to the consul. It was a mid-age Chinese looking consul, very charismatic. He said good morning, which was a surprise (on my interviews for the tourist visas the consul barely looked at my face..... read complete review
