Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

I'm writing this on behalf of my wife's experience.

Her visa interview was scheduled for 8:30 am on Sept. 3, 2013. She got there a little before 8 and there was no line to get in. She got right through security and then was given a clear file to put her required documents in (passport, passport style photos, interview letter, medical report and police cert). They also gave her a number which would be used to call her up.

In Tokyo, all the interviews are done in one room. There are windows along the wall and you wait in the same room to be called up. After giving her documents over at the first window, she sat and waited to be called up for her biometrics. After that she was called up again to do the interview.

The officer was American and spoke English. She said he was very nice and smiled. He never really asked her questions straight out. As she stood at the window he was looking through our file and would just make comments, such as: ... read complete review

we arrived at the embassy by walking it was guarded 360, we waited for about 30 min and people started showing. by the time we started checking in it around 0800
we were given a clear paper to put our document inside in order, at the embassy lobby we were issued a number.
we waited for around 8 min and our number was called to submit the document, they were some missing document but allowed me to correct form G325, after that i had to submit a statement on how we met i did in writing one page and my wife had to submit a statement about her previous passport and they asked fro picture and my wife gave it to the Japanese Lady.

Review Topic: K1 Visa

We had an outstanding experience at the US Embassy in Tokyo yesterday.
I flew in from the US for the event. Not necessary but it allowed us to have fun people watching and hanging out while we waited, cut off from civilization, without our electronics.

We arrived by taxi at the Embassy at 8:30. We were not sure if we needed a letterpack 500 for K-1 visa so while I paid for the cab, my fiancé ran into Lawson pick one up across the street at Lawson. We walked to the Visa entrance area and there was no line at 8:30. This is because everyone was already inside.

We were asked by the police to produce the interview confirmation document/email which we did. We were then instructed to remove all electronic devices including cellphones, tablets, PCs, USB drives and charger/charging cables. We proceeded through the police security checkpoint and left our devices at the security counter to pick up as we left.

We proceeded to the Visa section. W... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

Appointment was 08:30, but we got there too early for interview. So went starbucks and had breakfast. and we back to consulate about 10 mins before interview.
We were number 1, had call just 08:30, give police record, I-864, pictures, passport and pay $230. I forgot i had to bring 2 picture of me but she said its ok and accept them.
And back to chair and wait they call again for interview 45 mins.

The guy asked
-When we get marriage?
-Do we have wedding and reception?
-When we had wedding and reception?
-He's(US citizen) family came to wedding? and who came?
-Do we have kids?

It take about 10 mins, and he said "Interview is done and your visa is approvable. You will get your passport about a week later. Have a good day."

They are nice but not a lot smile on face. So that makes me nervous.
