First of "DO NOT BRING YOUR PHONE"
It's clearly stated to not bring your phone but again on this day there were several people that got sent to the back of the line because they brought phones.
Apparently if the number is not to great, they will let you in after the rest of the people, but if they run out of room to store them I guess they sent you home.
Change from last reviews:
Show up on time and wait in line. They no longer pick out the immigrant visa's and it's first come first serve.
Staff is extremely nice and helpful.
Immigrant visa's open the door (yes it is heavy) and go to the room on your right. (window 5)
ones it was my turn the aid wanted to have:
Passport
Birth certificate + copy
Police certificate (VOG) + Copy
I-134 (original wet signature!!)
3 years worth of tax returns
And wait to be called to window 6
Got sworn in.<... read complete review

I had my interview at 13:30 and arrived at 13:15. You leave all your belongings at the security desk, except for your wallet and paperwork. And yes, bring no electronic devices!
I had to wait for about 13:45 to take fingerprints and hand over the following items:
* Birth certificate + a copy
* Verklaring goed gedrag + a copy
* 2 US style passport photo's
* Form I-134 (+ supporting materials)
Getting my fingerprints right was difficult as I had dry hands. The Dutch lady at the counter was very friendly to me, but the next guy apparently showed up with wrong documents and I heard her giving him hell like your strictest school teacher.
The interview was pleasant and quick. Before the interview, you take fingerprints again and you swear to tell the truth with your hand raised. My interview questions were
* where did you meet?
* when did you first meet?
* is your fiancé divorced?
* is this ... read complete review

First of all, thank you all so much for your reviews, it really helps reading what you can expect before going trough it yourself.
I am a DV2015 lottery winner (unfortunately that wasn't one of the options I could select in this post) and I had my interview on June 11th at the US consulate in Amsterdam.
I applied in October 2013 for the lottery, found out I won May 2014, got married October 2014, and my Case Number became current (ready for an interview) in June 2015. My initial interview date was on June 2nd, but when me and my husband arrived at the embassy his name wasn't on the list. Very strange since we submitted his documents online to KCC, and KCC told me both were processed. I was still let in and tried my hardest to get my husband in as well, without any luck. I was first in line, and when we came in I could immediately submit my documents at window 5. Then at window 6 I did a small interview, which was pretty laid back. Then the CO said that o... read complete review

Finally got my interview date (11th of June) and couldn't wait to be done with it. Got there an hour early so i was the first in line javascript:emoticon(' ')
Didn't have anything in my pockets, made sure of that after all the warnings they gave us.
Handed in all my paperwork at the first window (window 5). Turned out my marriage certificate didn't have the right seal on it, so I'll have to bring them a new one later (that was the first setback).
Then I was called to the next window (window 6) for the interview. It was a very pleasant man, he even made small talk ( I thought they didn't do that at the embassy). After the interview he said: 'it's all good, but....there is two things. We need your original marriage license and we can find your fingerprints in the computer. ( they take your fingerprints at the first window and then they verify them at the second one). Between window 5 and 6 I seemed to have lost my fingerprints. I assured him I stil... read complete review
