Review Topic: K1 Visa

Our appointment was for 9am. We arrived at 8:45am and found a huge line of people waiting outside. It was pretty disorganized and Colombian staff in lue vests were trying to make people wait far down the block and away from the entry point they had cordoned off (itself quite a ways from the actual entrance). Per what we read here, we went to the front and showed our DS-160 confirmation and said we had a K1 interview. A Colombian staffer member tried to tell me I couldn't go in with my fiancee, but I just insisted that I could so you might also have to be a little pushy. Then he tried to make us wait until 9am sharp to enter, but we heard the loudspeaker calling all K, H and residency visa applicants inside to the tent labelled Number 3. Back to the front of the line and tried to get through; same person told us we had to wait until 9am. As we turned to go back he chased after us and told us nevermind, we could enter. Another Colombian staff person told us to go to the front of the seco... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Very nice experience
I get to Bogota the Day before we stay at
Hotel Black tower mi fiance had all the exams and fingerprints done,she came a week before,our appoitment was at 9:am we get there at 8,there was a long line for tourist we ask an employ outside he told us to go ahead to line 3 with only one person ahead of us, first checkpoint to make sure we had all the documents in order, next we were directed to another área to wait about 20 minutes for an pre interview, we went to Window 5,I think the fact that we have child and he live with me on the States made everything easy only few questions adress, emails and if i'm biological father of our son, then he told us to wait to be called by cónsul.

Review Topic: K1 Visa

My fiancé interviewed this morning in Bogota for a K1 visa. He had a good experience, though he had to wait for a few hours. Once he was called up his interview was <10 minutes. They asked him what countries he's lived in (he's lived abroad) and when was the last time we saw each other (just 3 weeks ago-- he felt like that helped). And that's it-- visa approved, they didn't ask for pictures or other relationship evidence. Good luck to all!!

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

I arrived and hour earlier than my appointment letter said there was already 25 people before me some of them even had their interview at 9 am so the time doesnt really matter but the order you get there does. As soon as you get there security lets you in you go through security check you can keep your cellphone and turn it on when you are inside.

After you go in they will take your name and cross you out from a list they have and give you a number to get called for the first time. When they call you to the first window is to confirm your information. After that they will call you again by your name and the consul will then do the interview. They gave me paper that is an immigration fee you have to pay online before you travel. They will send me the package and the passport with the visa through DHL the one you chose. The people at the embassy were very nice and helpful. They do take a little long i was there for 4 1/2 hours but in general it was good.
