This is what my fiance told me her experience was. There were three people involved with the process.

There was first a person to take her finger prints.

Then there was a person who checked her medical records, police records and affidavit of support.

The third person was the person conducting the interview. Some of the questions were...

How did we meet?
Has she met my family?
Have I met her family?
Did we use Skype for communication?

Then he went on typing some information in the computer and told her she was approved.

He did not ask for any of the papers we prepared for proof of relationship, so she offered them to him. He said he did not need to see them and that her answers to his questions were enough.

I will omit the details of the actual interview as mine was very similar to other reviews that were posted earlier on here. Mine only took an hour, which was surprising to me! I seriously expected to be there until noon.

I also thought people who went thorough NVC document check seemed to be called quicker than others such as K-1 applicants. I guess the embassy doesn't really have a lot of documents they need to check themselves since NVC had already done that. I actually finished before many of those who came into the embassy before I did.

Tokyo staff were very professional and efficient. Don't be afraid to ask questions if you are not sure about anything. They will kindly answer your questions.

Things I have noticed that might have changed or be useful to others are:

1. If you have a joint sponsor, you may be asked to submit I-864A as an additional document by the embassy. I received an e-mail from them about a week before... read complete review

BOOM, approved.

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

Got an email 4 days before the interview saying the DS-260 was missing her school info. There was no tab on our DS-260 for her to put her previous schooling. She printed the DS-260 (other version) and printed in the info to take with her. Here is her review:
Arrived an hour early, 3rd in line. Appointment set for 830. Said the consulate asked her 5 questions: where we met, places we went on dates etc. Just generic questions. Then he asked to see her ring which she didn't wear. She usually doesn't wear it because of her job so she forgot it that morning. She explained that and that was that. Overall she said it was really relaxed and more like a general conversation. After reviewing all her info: doctors notes etc. You are approved and will receive your Visa/Passport within 5 days. She said the staff was polite and that the interview was so easy it made her nervous lol. Overall a walk in the park.
