So it all started with me traveling down to frankfurt on the 11th as my interview was at 0730 on the 12th. I went to sleep in the hotel at around 2300 and woke up every half hour because i was freaking i would miss my alarm lol. At 0445 i eventualyy gave up and just got up to get ready for the interview, my taxi was booked for 0645. I wasnt nervous at all, i dont really think it has hit me what has been going on lol.
I got to the conuslate at 0700 and there were 2 lines, one for non-immigrants and ond for other. there was only 3 people in front of me and loads of others in the non-immigrant lane. At about 0730 a guy came out and told us how it would go from there. Everyone in my lane got called up to a window outside one at a time to get a number. Mine was W601. Then we had to go through a small building where security was and then into the bigger building. It was a huge hall that had id say about 300seats in it and 30 odd windows. I totally forgot that i passport pics again and... read complete review

My appointment letter said 8am and do not arrive more than 15 minutes early. I got there around 7:25 and stood in line for maybe 10 minutes and was issued a number (Numbers seem to be sorted by type of visa - mine started with a W). I had to show my passport at the number counter.
New line - stood there for a few seconds and went to...
Short security check (no electronics), everybody was very friendly.
Inside the embassy there is a large waiting room and a bunch of windows (23 or so). They call your number very clearly, no problems there. The waiting room also has two "picture booths", a machine for stamps, a machine that gives you change (seemd to be broken though!), a copier, vending machine (I think), and a bar type thing (Had some snacks and drinks; I think it opened at 8:30).
-- So everything is there, but I'd definitely recommend bringing everything to the embassy; much less stressful (pictures - see below, stamps - 4,25Euros, ... read complete review

Everything went well on March 1st. nothing to worry about. The officer was really nice and the interview just took 5 minutes or less.
Only bad thing: He told me that I would receive my visa within 2 weeks, but it took 3,5! Was kind of nerve-wracking, but now that I got it I'm just so happy!!

First off, it is far less scary than you'd think.
My appointment was at 8.30, got there at 8.10 and queued up for the "All other services" line, got my number (e.g. W506). Security check, no big deal.
Once in the big hall with all the counters, you will be told where to wait for your number to be called out.
All in all I'd say it took about an hour for everything 'inside' that hall.
At the first counter I had to show passport, appointment letter and visa payment receipt. He gave me a checklist with all the things I should pre-prepare for the next step (Birth cert, divorce cert, marriage cert, police cert, affidavit of support and supporting documents).
At the second counter I gave the officer all the requested documents. He explained when and how I will probably receive my visa and asked no further questions.
At the third and last counter I had a short chat with one of the consuls. He asked when and how my fiancé and I met. He quickly aske... read complete review
