This embassy contracts workers from the outside that have no knowledge of the immigration laws and rules. They are updated once a month on procedures, are rude and imcompetant. Be careful when they tell you something, it will very likely be wrong. My daughter-in-law had her interview on 08/24/09 and was told at the window that her DS-230 had the incorrect name on it (how many names do you have?). Once she went to the actual interview, the caseworker El Salvadoran) assigned to her was very intimidating and rude. He told her that my son did not make enough money to support her, even though he was way over the poverty guide line. She also had to come back a week later with a co-sponser (I-864A) and then he would tell her if she needed to file a waiver (I-601). Thank God when she went for the second interview, she had an American caseworker that told her that all her paperwork was correct and that she did not need to file a waiver due to the fact that she EWI's as a juvenile. He ac... read complete review

This embassy normally requires 2 interviews. At the first one my husband was told that we needed a Joint Sponsor. This is because, even though I make enough money now, I didn't make very much money last year. They asked for the documents on June 29th and wanted the originals one week later on July 6th. My grandma sent them the very next morning, but they had to come from Alaska and so they didn't arrive on time. At the second interview, he did bring a scanned copy of my grandma's I-864 and taxes, but they told him that we needed to have a third interview and that I needed to come. They didn't tell us that we needed to bring proof of our relationship, but it was the first thing they asked for in the third interview. He was in there for about an hour and a half. Then I was in there for about an hour. Then they called him in again. They asked A LOT of questions. Some were pretty difficult. Things like: where did you go on your first date? Who went with you? Why did you choose to go there?... read complete review

  Our interview was in two parts. First my wife had one. They asked for a second one to confirm our marriage was "real" by asking her a series of questions and then asking me the same. It was almost like a nerve-racking game of "Newlyweds"!! They asked questions - some very general, and some very private. Things like... "Does she have any scars?" "Where?" "What are his/her parent's names?" "What did you do the first night you ever met?" Be ready for ANYTHING here! Otherwise, it went well!

Gracias a Dios todo salió bien y la experiencia No estuvo mal, fueron 3 horas aprox. para pasar a la entrevista, el consul fue cordial, ni muy amigable ni muy enojado, no solicitó ninguna evidencia, pero para mi tranquilidad llevaba mucha :P llegué a las 11 am y fui la número 20, la entrevista duró aprox 6 min y fueron preguntas para confirmar la informacion que ellos ya tienen.

Oops, sorry, I didn´t realize I couldn´t edit the previous entry. So, anyway, we spoke with the Department of State on the phone twice, and both people told us that the information given by the embassy was INCORRECT and that we COULD have a co-sponsor for the K1 visa (or that someone from my family could be the primary sponsor). My fiance went back to the second interview with a letter from MY employer in the States saying I was rehired, my salary, start date, etc, but they still stated that it was not sufficient and he needs a letter of employment for HIM. The second woman he spoke with, the actual Consul, he said was much nicer and took the time to listen to him and explain, but she still held firm that I couldn´t have a co-sponsor and the letter from my employer was not sufficient. They also did not care what we had been told by the DOS. The Consul stated that the K3 can have a co-sponsor, but not the K1, because on the K1 he could in theory go to the States... read complete review
