Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

The appointment was at 7am and we arrived at 620am. There were two lines and we were directed to the one closest to the embassy entrance. We waited about 20 mins before being called in and going through security.

From here, we had to walk through a courtyard, where we were able to put our belts back on that we were required to remove during the security check. We entered a differen building where we were checked in with others and were directed to one of two areas. The area to the left appeared to be for those looking visitor visas and the area to the right, where we were sent after being assigned a number, seemed to hold those who had someone filng for them.

After about 20 minutes our number was called and they took my husband's fingerprints and confirmed that they had everything that was sent from NVC. We sat back down and soon afterward everyone else had been called to do the same.

About 45 minutes later,they started calling pe... read complete review

Arrival
We arrived to the Embassy around 8:15 am for our 8:30 appointment. We approached a long line at the front of the embassy and was greeted by a consulate officer. She checked our paperwork and highlighted the areas where corrections needed to be made. She then asked us to go to the front of the line and show the security officer our paperwork. We then entered the building and had to go through the medal detectors. They do not allow cell phones, so the only items we had with us were keys and paperwork. I would also suggest that you bring a pen because we had to borrow one on several occassions.


Entering the Main Building
After we made it through the medal detectors we had to stand in line for the main entrance. There were applicants for visitor and other types of visas sitting on both sides. They were allowing about 5 people into the building at a time. We had to step out of the line to make the corrections to our paperwork, however, we were a... read complete review

We arrived at about 8:15 for our 8:30 interview time. While outside in line a woman checked our paper work and made sure everything was filled out properly(BE SURE AND HAVE PEN!!).She made sure we were on the list, asked for copy of ds 156, ds-156k, ds-157 (both copies)and passport photos, the paid visa fee receipt. She then stapled passport photos to the forms that required it. We then were told to go to another line that was still outside the front of embassy (short wait). Eric and I then were told to enter the building. We went through the security line. That was when the nerves really hit me. The man told us to put everything in the basket then wait to go through metal detector. After we gathered all of our belongings, we went to another line outside. There another woman came to check our paper work and we just waited to proceed inside the building. They were letting 5 people in at a time. That wait wasn't that long either. Now we are finally inside the building, snaked around the ... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Orville and I had an appointment on November 18 at 9:30am. We arrived at that time and were told to proceed into the embassy after the woman in front took the pictures and passports from us. She told my fiance to sign his name to the back of the photos and then we entered the embassy. We were given our number and proceeded to section A where we sat in the back row. We had our 2 year old daughter with us and she kept us quite entertained while we waited to be called to the window.
First we were called to a window where a very friendly Jamaican woman took all of our paperwork. She wanted the 156,156k,157, and the I134. I explained to her that I made enough money with my child support included and brought supporting evidence to that but I also had a co-sponsor. She took mine as well as my co-sponsors evidence. She handed back papers as she went that she did not need. She had a years worth of my pay stubs but only took three of them...the most recent. She thanked me for being org... read complete review
