Was nervous on my way to the consulate, but as soon as I got there and noticed how nice everyone was, that feeling quickly passed.
Waited outside for three or four minutes (be sure to stand in the right line, not the left one for "non-immigrant visas"!), passed security, checked in and was told to go to a window at the very end of the hall to pay my visa fee.
The gentleman there was very friendly and made a few jokes, which also helped the mood of everyone there also awaiting their interviews.
After paying the fee and waiting for about five minutes, I was called to another window where an officer went through my submitted documents with me to check if everything is correct. I had a couple of questions, and he was so kind to ask a colleague for me.
Then waited for another short period of time, perhaps fifteen minutes, before my interview started. Like others have said on VisaJourney before, it felt more like a very direct conversation ... read complete review

As many have stated before, the interview in Frankfurt is easy and nothing to worry about.
I had my appointment at 08:15 and was back in my car at 09:05. Parking is hard to find, so plan in sufficient time to find a parking lot,
The lines were short, everyone was friendly. Security inside (where you go through the metal detectors) could be a little friendlier though - rude Germans, what can I say...
Wait times inside were short for me, it didn't seem like a very busy day (not knowing what a busy day looks like...). The interview was fairly short. Questions asked were along the lines of: how did you meet? describe the engagement? what are your travel plans? do either of you have kids? is it the first marriage for both of you? when was the last time you saw each other? All in all, nothing tricky. Got told I'm approved right there, handed back my originals and told my passport should be there within the next 10 days.

Soo in short: I went to the consulate even though I was way too early. Thought maybe I can walk around a bit more to kill time. However, when I arrived a little more than an hour early two employees told me to already get in line. They said it's no problem and if I wait for an hour the line will be really long. So i got in line (right line for immigrant visas) and it was all quite easy. First window needs your appointment letter and the passport. Then you are sent to an officer to empty all your pockets, take off all you have like cellphone, watch etc and put it in a transparent plastic bag. Afterwards you may enter the building and have to pass the metal detector. If you brought smth they don't approve they take it and hold it for you. All other stuff except papers you had to put and keep in the transparent plastic bag. Next station was another building where you had to take everything out of the bag and leave the plastic bag in a box. Don't ask me for the reason 😅. Anyway wit... read complete review

Had an appointment at 08:15, so arrived at 08:00. It was very easy to get there on the u-bahn. We went to the interview together (the USC is allowed to attend).
There was some confusion over which line to wait in, but, as of August 2018, the right line is for immigrant cases.
We received a number and went to the security room where we were scanned. Don't bring your phones with you or anything. They give you a clear bag to hold your papers and wallets.
We leave the security room and then go in to another building where the woman at the front desk looked at our number and told us to go to the cashier's window.
The cashier would be "back in 5 minutes" according to the sign. He took the intending immigrant's passport and some the passport-sized photos (there was a photobooth inside the building in case the photographs were forgotten). He told us we had already paid and then asked us to sit down and wait for our number to be calle... read complete review
