There were two queues at the entrance of the consulate visa center, one for non-immigrant visa, the other for immigrant visa. When I got there at 8 am, there was a very long queue for non-immigrant visa, in which there were approximately 100 people, probably more inside the building. K-1 applicants should join the immigrant visa queue, which was much shorter, with only 7 or 8 people in the line.
After the security check at the entrance, I went to the 3rd floor. At the 1st window, I submitted the interview appointment letter sent by the consulate. And I got a number there. Then I sat and watched a screen which would tell you in a few minutes the next window you were going to. The officer here speaks Chinese.
At the 2nd window, I was asked to open the physical exam result envelope, and submitted the document inside along with the petitioner's income and tax documents, and my birth certificate/notary, my police certificate/notary there. The officer here speak... read complete review

So here is my review of the Guangzhou K-1 process from the perspective of the Petitioner.
We arrived at the consulate around 8am for the 8:40 appointment. The NIV lime was immensely long and nothing was clearly marked, but after a short talk with the guard She was directed to the IV line which had only 4 people. After 10 minutes outside she entered the building.
Her recount of the inside was average. She said the CO that interviewed her was very very pleasant and nice, smiled often, and she enjoyed the interview. However she said the Chinese guards and paper takers that were in the building were very very serious, and at some times rude.
During the interview they asked her only a few questions.
1. How many times has he come to visit (she opened my passport to count the entry/exit stamps). They smiled and said that was enough.
2. They asked her how long we had been together
3. They asked her what were her plans if... read complete review

His appointment was at 7:45am, I believe it is the earliest appointment. If you can, it's always better to get the earlier appointment to avoid the extra wait time. He arrived the consulate at around 7am, and waited at the Immigration line. Even though there were a lot of people waiting in line already, the security won't let you in unless it's your appointment time, so there really is no need to be there too early.
Passport, P4 and CGI appointment confirmation were required for getting into the consulate.
Note that you can't bring in backpacks and cellphone, so he had to spend 30rmb to deposit his backpack.
After getting into the consulate, there is security check like how it is at the airport I suppose, they will scan your passport and give you a sticker on your passport. And then he went up to the 3rd floor for the IV unit. There he went to the first window to turn in his documents to a Chinese lady. She was a little tough and actually asked a lot of question... read complete review
