Out appointment was at 6:00am. We arrived at the consulate at 5:50am and the line for immigrant visas (“residencia”) was already very long. As soon as you step into the line people start selling their services to you (taking photographs, filling in forms, etc). One of those guys was telling us that the photographs needed to be stapled to the forms. Please don’t listen to them; if you do you will void your photos and the consular officers will not accept them.
At around 6:10am the line started moving. Have your interview letter in hand when you start approaching the entrance because it will be taken from you before you enter the facilities. We made it in at 7am. The inside is roomy, there are plenty of places to sit down, there are ceiling fans all over the place, and there is even a small cafeteria in there. Bathrooms were relatively clean also. You can bring in food, just no liquids of any kind. My name was called at 8:30am to hand in all the forms, birth certificate, p... read complete review

Our interview experience was much as others have stated. We arrived @ 5:30am to get in line. The people were divided in different lines based upon the interview times. We entered the embassy early because I am 4 months pregnant. I had stepped out of line; being nauseous from the humidity; the crowdedness. A police man noticed my condition; called for my boyfriend; moved us forward. I was relieved, but didn’t want to make others in line upset. I could not bring in a water bottle with me; had to put it in the trash; snacks that I brought were okay. Shortly after entering; we were called to window 17 to give them Alex’s papers. We received our number; waited for the next step. We were spoiled being called so early to the first window as it was much later to be called to window 13 for the fingerprints. We thought it would be another hour before our interview. It sure was a long hour. People after us were called first. Don’t despair; the numbers are not called in order or the same ord... read complete review

I arrived at 5:15 am, and there were about 100 people in line ahead of me, we finally made our way inside around 8:30 am, once inside it all moved fairly quickly, I am pretty sure that had I not attended she would have been denied, he asked her nothing, all the questions were for me. He asked how we met, how many times I had returned to visit, what hotels did I stay at in the DR, did she have family in the US, did I live alone, did she live alone, what do I do for a living. He asked to see my passport and photos only,although I had my tax returns with notarization bank and employment letters etc...he did not ask to see them. He said to her in Spanish "your visa is approved", and we were finished by 10 am.

I am pretty sure if I had not attended the interview, she would have been denied, he asked me all the questions, none to her. he asked how we met, my occupation, if I live alone or with others, if she had family in the US, he looked at my passport and my photos only, he did not want to see anything else, althought I had quite a bit of documentation, inclunding my tax return, bank and employment letters,birth certificate, he also asked if I was previously married,, which I was, but did did not ask for the divorce papers. The only thing he said her was visa approved in Spanish.
We got to the embassy at 5:15, and there were still at least one hundred people in line ahead of us. we finally got inside the embassy around 8:30 people must start arriving at 4 am to be allowed in at 6 am when they open the doors
