My fiancee went to the interview alone since I'm busy in school and work here in the states. She said that it was pleasant and went smoothly. The immigration officer was funny and made jokes throughout the process at the Embassy. We were worried because I'm a returning college student and that my tuition assistance wouldn't be counted for income but there wasn't any problems so we were really happy of course! It's a great time for us because the waiting it just about over! The immigration process is time consuming and stressful but when you're at the end it doesn't matter anymore because you can be with the one person who makes life worth experiencing!

2 hour wait, 10 minute interview. Brought lots of proof, was not necessary...didn't even ask to see it.

The wait was harder than the interview!

she said it took about 2 and 1/2 hours total.
the interview was really short. only a few questions -

where did we meet?
your fiance lived in japan right? when and where?
will you get married within 3 months after arriving to the US?

other than that just sat and waited. turned in paperwork when requested.

not as scary as we thought it would be.

she gave the original "family register" to get the police certificate after we had it translated. only had a copy of the original and the translated version for the interview. that was a mistake you must have the original family register to give them with the translation. now she will express them a new one then they will return her passport with the visa.

good luck and no worries about the japan consulate!

The interview was really easy. They asked her:

How/where we met

Does your fiance speak Japanese? (she said yes, and the consulate officer replys, "Cool!")

Is your fiance in Japan or America now? She said America, and he asks:

What does he do over there? (she said that I go to law school in Philadelphia, and when she pronounced "Phil-a-del-phi-a" very slowly, he says "say Philadelphia two times fast!")

When are you getting married?

After she answered that, he said "ok, you'll get your passport back in about a week."

And that was it.

5 stars, my only complaint is that America has a consulate right in Osaka where my fiance lives, but they only give interviews in Tokyo or Okinawa. Come on!

Pretty easy
I was there 30 minutes ahead of appointment time, and I got #12 waiting ticket. If I got there later, maybe I had to wait backlog.... It took only about 1 hour, much faster than what I heard. If you don't like to wait, I recommend you to get there earlier than requested!

They called me 3 times. 1: submitting doc, 2: finger print and 3: interview. At the interview, the officer asked typical questions only, such as "how did you meet?", "how have you been dating?", "did he come to Japan?", "did he meet your family?". And, since I met him during my business trip, I needed to talk about my job a little bit. Anyway, no need to be nervous
