Our interview went well with the consulate. Most likely because we were prepared. Most of the documents my fiance brought were not needed but you never know. We had about 5 inches thick of paperwork, not including the photos. From personal items such as EOR letter, letters from all parents, family, friends, phone bills, internet communications, joint banking, langauge classes, etc. Then I had lots of financial documents, 3 years of tax returns, mortgage statements, etc. And with the pcitures we hand about 300 with us and family.
When it came to the questions they asked her the standard ones that I have read in the blogs on this site. We practiced for all these and she was ready to go. She did tell me the interview was short, about 5 minutes. And a couple VO's came over to say hi during the interview. I think being present, even though I was just downstairs, is important. They asked about this and I think this is a bonus.
My major complaints ab... read complete review

I received my interview schedule back in March. I asked the consulate to reschedule it for May. I was told to wait for a month and then send them an email for reschedule. Since I did not want to wait I flew to China and went to the interview with my wife. The first day we wait few hours to hand in the document then was told our interview was cancelled. We never received any email saying our interview was cancelled but there was nothing else we could do.
We sent them an email in April to schedule the interview. I then email them every week asking for an update. They were very patient and asked me to wait. I finally got the interview at the date I wanted.
We were at the consulate at noon time, and handed in our document and got out at about 2pm. Since I sent them so many emails the clerks knew the situation of my wife already. We went back there the next morning at 7:20am for the interview. My wife did not get to interview till after 10am and the ... read complete review

It went as expected and was typical for CR-1 applicants in Guangzhou.

My fiance flew back to Beijing on May 25 and we flew to Guangzhou on May 31. We stayed at Vili International hotel which is very near to railstation, about 10-15 mins by walk. We went to submit the documents on Jun 1 at around 10:00 am, but were told to come at 12:30 pm which the appointment letter indicated. When we came again at around 12:35 pm, there were already a long queue in front of the building. I was given an entry pass and my fiance accompanied me to the 5th floor. After I passed through the security check, I was given a number 119 which would be called by sequence. After 2 hours waiting, around 3 pm, I was called to window 30. It is a chinese young lady. She spoke in a low voice that I couldn't catch her clearly. She asked me few questions: are you a ccp? which country i've been to before? Is there a country I lived beyond a year? She took over the papers I prepared but she didn't require the ones like the chat log, emails, phone list, photos, etc.

Our interview started on the 1st with the document hand off. Even though the interview letter listed about 5 things that they needed the originals, the only documents actually turned over were the tax returns and I-864. We showed up at 12:30 where they started to let people in. By about 1:00 she was heading in to the consulate and it took about 3 hours to get through this step. The CO took her fingerprints and then asked her a few questions. How we met, has she ever been out of China and is she a member of the CCP. They put a green sticker on her interview letter and done for the day. Day two we arrived just before 7:30 with a backpack full of everything we had submitted plus the additional evidence since we got married. Here things got a little confused. Some people with the same visa type and same process didn't have the green sticker so we got separated in to two lines with the green stickers going first. Didn't seem to make a difference once inside however as they call ... read complete review
