Interviewed November 6th, my fiance (USC) came with me. Arrived approximately 7:10am and was 4th in line. by 7:30 there were at least 30 people waiting in line outside. I received letter "D". We didn't really wait for the elevator, because we were the first batch through. We were brought upstairs, and we waited in a bank of separate chairs on the far side. The next group of people they brought up, and all subsequent, were directed to line up for a number.

Those of us with letters were not called up in order - presumably each person taking the documents was assigned a case, and we were called up in the order those people were ready to receive the documents. When I was called up to the window, the woman was very cheerful and smiling. She asked me for documents one at a time, including original + 1 copy of my long form birth certificate.

I had things organized as follows - one folder of originals and one of copies in the same order (each flagged and labelle... read complete review

everyone made us feel totally comfortable, and were so happy for us because we seemed so happy. After passing through security ( they gave dale a ticket because like an idiot he brought his phone but it was no problem) we went downstairs and were told to wait. we did for about 10 mins, then the security guard came and took us up in the elevator. we all got in line at the cashier ( but we didn't have to pay at this point, they just gave us a paper of what we needed to get together and a number. it was pretty straight forward, have your passport, pictures, police report and affidavit ready + your envelope ready. we then waited and waited and waited until our number was called.
When i handed in all of my forms to the girl at booth 10 the girl beside me at booth 9 didn't have copies, she was missing stuff, and she had to take so much time to fill everything out. my CO was so surprised that i had everything she asked for even a second copy of the ds-156 and 156k and she even comme... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

First of all, thanks for the heads up VJers to be there just before 7am...I was the first in line! And boy was it cooooold out this morning! Another couple showed up about five mins after I did (I think they're members on here, but never got their user name(s)) so we chatted until they opened the doors...which I think was at 7:30, but I didn't have a watch on me. A few more people had joined the line by then.

Went through security...
Went down some stairs where you're told to wait in a chair outside the elevator. You're also given a form saying what documents/items to have ready to show, so most people get this organized while they wait for the elevator guy to come and get you...

At about 7:45am a few of us from the front of the line were taken up in the elevator... We were told to sit and wait until our names were called.
It was cold and foggy, so unfortunately, couldn't see the view everyone raves about :-)

Just before 8:30am... read complete review

They were awesome at the consulate. We flew through with no issues. They barely looked at our evidence of an ongoing relationship, I think it was because when she asked if we has any we pulled out like 3 stacks of papers (phone bills, flight and travel itinerarys and all kinds of supporting evidence. She was like, "you're approved, but do you have pictures? I always like seeing pictures!"

Everyone was very nice. One bit of advice, read the guides and forums, learn from the mistakes of others! We wouldn't have gotten to where we are without visajourney!! 6 months to the day!!!
