Appointment is at 7:00AM but I got there with my fiance at 6:45AM and they were starting to let people in and we were pretty far back in the line already.
Took awhile to get to the security room and it was cold outside in line, seems like they were letting other visa types in first, and K-1 and CR-1 were last.
Once through security, you enter the waiting area and a staff member makes sure you have your documents. Only thing needed was I-134, medical exam, police certificate and passport photos. They told me no need for DS-160 confirmation, tax transcripts, birth certificate etc.
Then you enter a line for just K-1 where they took my fiances passport, and the documents mentioned above. After that you wait for your interview. They didn't start doing interviews until 8AM and just 1 officer. The other 2-3 officers opened their windows for interviews around 9:30AM
Window 2 officer had noticeably worse spanish but he was approving ... read complete review

Our experience at the Bogota embassy was very good. My fiance came to Bogota to attend the interview with me. Our interview was scheduled for 7am but we got there 6:15am. They don't let anyone in until 6:45am. We had to stay outside with other people until they called k1 visa applicants to go inside. Because we got there earlier, we got to be one of the first ones to get in. But, since they let people in accordign to the interview time, you'd get in if you cant make it early like we did. Once we got in, there was a first checkin point with some ladies going through the documents and making sure you were in the list for that day. Then we went through an airport security style check point. They went through my purse and did body scan. It is suggested that you don't take any unnecessary items (make up, laptops, etc.) to make the process faster. We only took our folder with our documents and my purse with a pen, my glasses and our passports. Once inside the embassy, a guy reviewed our docu... read complete review

According to my wife, the interview was easy, and was only asked a very small of number of questions:
1) Where does your husband live?
2) 2nd time in the US? What happened the first time with your K1 Visa process? (The first time my wife came to the United States, she came as my fiancee. Things did not work out the first time, and she went back to Colombia)
The interviewer made some small talk, and eventually told her she was approved. She was able to pick up the visa within 2-3 days of approval. So if you live far away and your visa is approved, it may be a safe bet to stay around the area, and perhaps wait for your stamped passport.
