First time for both of us in Rio; we stayed in Lapa, which is more of a party area than a place for rest and relaxation. When we arrived at the Consulate we were directed by the guards to walk around to the back of the building where there were two lines stretching out in two different directions from one door on the corner (where there were more guards). We asked the guards which line we should stand in and they told us to stand in the [much] smaller line. We were 1 hour early, which was completely unnecessary because the line was so short it didn't really make a difference.
Around 8 a.m. a man came around in our line with a clipboard to check to see if my husband's name was written down on his list. Then the guard asked all of us to show our medical exam file so he could check it for any security threats. Then, one by one, we were allowed to pass through the security inside the building (no cell phones, or cameras allowed) and then directed up to the second floor.... read complete review

The interview went really well. We were the first to arrive (we got there at 6:30 am) and waited outside until they opened at 7:45- 8:00. Getting early paid off since we went through the check-in process and interview first. After we received approval (9:30 am), we went to the courier to arrange to have the passport and visa delivered at our hotel in Rio. The visa was delivered that Friday and we left Brazil the following Monday. Everyone at the US consulate was very kind and courteous. Make sure that you have all of your documents in order and it will be a breeze!

It was a long wait since the time I got there until the interview. My interview was scheduled for 7:45 am and I left the consulate after around 11 am.
First thing when you get inside they you a number and a paper with a list of the documents and forms you should have in a certain order, so you can organize them to be delivered. When your number is called you go to a window where a brazilian will check your documents and see if it's all in order. If it's all good, you'll go back waiting for your number to be called again for the interview with the consul.
My interview was very nice. The consul was a woman, very friendly and i felt very comfortable. She asked me how I met my fiancé; how long do we know each other; if he had come to Brazil and how many times; if I had been to the US and how many times; what were the reason of my trips; what was my ocupation; if I could speak english; how did I learn english (at this point the rest of the interview was in english). She al... read complete review

Real easy and smooth interview... got there early enough and was the first one in line. The interview didn't last 5 mins!
The consul lady was very polite and was all smiles all the time.
The questions she made were very easy too. Nothing to worry about if you're in a real relationship.
 Now I just can't wait to fly to the love of my life's arms...
