Interview at Consulate was smooth. If all paperwork is in order and organized, as we were, the process takes just over 1 1/2 hours. The interview was only 7-10 minutes with standard questions about how we met and as the interviewer requested, to "tell him our story". We did arrive at ^:30 and were first in line. We sat next to the elevator and moved to the rear so that we would be first off. Then went to the line for 14A/B.Our number was C1as we were first. After that you go to the windows as you are called and then back to the waiting area until called for the interview. Good luck to all VJers.

The embassy is huge, no sitting outside or inside the building
they only want to see you moving at all times.
If you go with your fiance(e) be ready to wait, also go early, try to be outside before the time they tell you ( at least 1 or 2 hrs before) the place can get crowed and they make different lines. the left lines are for students, k1,k3, the right far line is for people resubmitting information.
i got to this place 1 hour earlier to pickup our appointment for the next day we ended up getting a higher number eventhough we were like #low.
the second day things get a little hectic as the number doesn't really matter
it's all on a first come first serve basis pretty much.
be careful if you spend too much time outside there's bums and a lot of smoking.
the train station is very close to here so it makes this a very busy area.

Quick interview, quick approval.
Rewind to receiving P4: they left out a lot of documents, and sent us the non-K1 packet. If you don't pay attention, things like this will trip you up. Pay attention to the lists on this website for your visa type.
Medical: went to the Family clinic on a Saturday morning. Few people there, and we returned at 4 pm to pickup results and x-ray.
Document intake:
The took everything listed on the instruction packet, excluding two items:
1. The non-married notarized white book. They took the other two, the police and birth certs, but not that one. They did ask her to sign a statement that she was able to marry.
2. Photocopy of her passport.
I was really unsure about this, so my fiance took this stuff to the interview the next day just in case the document handler made a mistake.
Interview day:
Arrived at about 5:30 am. ... read complete review

This was posted elsewhere with help from a friend, but I'm just putting it under my name.
----------------
IR-1/CR-1 Immigration Visa Forms and Process Notes:
As of 05/30/2011 (for forms)
Preface/Philosophy:
-The idea is to make it as easy as possible for the poor sap reading these forms to get through the form without stopping.
-Latest forms were always obtained online at USCIS.
-No forms were used from packets.
(Either because they could not be typed in or because they were expired.)
-Whenever possible, responses were typed in.
(Select: Enable Java for this document - Always.)
-Whenever possible and reasonable, a response was put.
-Signatures, signature date, and form areas after a none/no/blank/"N/A" response were generally left blank.
(Putting something in a N/A signature area did not seem like a good idea.)
-Except for using all Caps in I-864, I tried to use ... read complete review

I hope someone finds this useful as I found the other reviews very useful!
Things went just as we expected according to what my husband told me.
He arrived for his health check at the Guangzhou International Travel Clinic at 7AM. He was first in line The clinic opened at 8 and within an hour he was finished with his exam. Within 2 hours he received his results. We had called in advance and paid 200 RMB more to ensure we would get the report before 12:00. The clinic was very helpful.
Then he took a taxi to the Visa Center where he said there were probably 100 people waiting outside to hand in documents. He got in line at 12:00.
At 12:30 they started letting people in. Then he went through the required security check and then had to get a number. He waited about 2 hours until his number was called. Our only surprise of the day was that we had to pay the visa processing fee of $400. We were not aware of this because we hadn't received any ... read complete review
