Review Topic: K1 Visa

We arrived at 7:30 and were allowed to enter the building at 8:00. We waited in the back room until 10:30 when we were called up to the window to submit our paperwork from Packet 4. She also returned paperwork from our I-129 Packet that was no longer needed. She asked a few questions about our relationship and focused on specific dates. (i.e. how long ago did you meet? Say 2008 instead of 3 years ago). At about 10:45 He was called up to do prints.

At 11:30 we were called up for the real interview. My fiance was again asked questions about our relationship, relatives living in the States, his time in the States, but what flustered him the most is why we applied for the K1 visa instead of CR-1. I (USC) had been living in GYE for 4 years, but never meet the 6 month requirement, so be prepared to answer this question if you\'ve spent significant time in Ecuador.

She asked many questions about our wedding. In all honesty we haven't planned much because the NOA2... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

After 7 months of paperwork and waiting it was time for our interview. Visa Journey was a great reference for us, and hopefully this review can help someone else. To be honest after reading the discussion posts and reviews of the Guayaquil Consulate I was pretty nervous about the interview. We compiled A TON of evidence and made sure that I was able to attend with my husband. I am not sure if the consulate has improved or just that we were very prepared but the interview was a smooth process for us.

Our appointment was scheduled for 7:15 and we were there by 6:15, there were two lines already formed one for immigrant visas and the other for non-immigrant visas. We were 4th in line and waited until about 7:00 when someone from the embassy came out. First he took the immigrant visa line (make sure you have your appointment letter and photos out), but when he got to my husband and I he told us that I would not be permitted to enter until 8:00. We tried explaining that I wa... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Arrived at 7:30 for an 8:30 appointment. We were allowed to get in line around 8:00. After a few hours of waiting we were called up and asked for our various items of paperwork and then told to sit down. Next he was called up for fingerprints then we waited a while longer. Finally a third person called us up and asked us a few questions about how we met, how many times I visited him, and what our wedding plans were. Then she told us we were approved and gave us a paper with directions on when and where to pick the visa and passport up. Overall very easy, the worst part was the wait (we finished about 12:30).

Review Topic: K1 Visa

When I first started the K-1 visa process seven months ago, I had no idea exactly what it would entail. I figured that I’m obviously not trying to fraud the system, so I’ll definitely get a visa easily and quickly. WRONG-O. While I have many thanks to give toward the angels at visajourney.com, I never encountered ONE place where I could locate exactly which requirements I needed for everything in the interview, including all the tiniest fine print minutiae. Because it’s the details that can drag you down for months (and what feels like eons). After all this time, you don’t want to screw up the interview, right? So here goes. I hope that someone accidentally stumbles upon this entry when searching for “K-1 Visa Interview Requirements” on Google. I’ve been there, friend. Ohh, have I been there.

Get yourself ready for a looong list of tiny details, based on my experience at the US Consulate in Guayaquil.

CONSULADO DE GUAYAQUIL
ENTREVISTA VISA K1

ESPAÑOL

Llegue a la embajada aproximadamente a las 8:00 AM, 30 minutos antes de la hora indicada. Había una fila medianamente larga pero no hay que preocuparse. La fila para nuestro tipo de visas es más corta, de hecho no había casi nadie. Al ingresar te piden la foto (tuve un problema con la mía tenía mala calidad así que les recomiendo tomársela en un lugar confiable, no tuve problema y me enviaron a sacar una nueva en la esquina).

Al ingresar a la sala te revisan todo, no lleve celulares ni ca... read complete review
