My interview was very similar to all other reviews, I arrived at 7:30am, had no problems with security, I received ticket 2, so sat and waited my turn, the clerk reviewed my papers and told me they were great, she could see no errors, and to sit and wait to be called to the interview counter. When I was called and stepped up to the counter I noticed an approved stamp on my paperwork,so I guess the interview is to prove you are a being, and in my casual interview I was asked, who I was marrying, where and when we intended to marry, where we met, when was the last time we'd see each other, what my fiance's job was and what employment I hoped to gain, and so after swearing that all information I had supplied to my knowledge was the truth I was congratulated and told I had a visa. One small issue I had was that, when I was back at security collecting my belongings I inquired as to whether there was a queue at security at the visa collection time, (as I had elected to collect my visa the fo... read complete review

Originally my interview was scheduled to be 1 month from the time I got my pink letter in the mail. Given the fact that I'm sure not many people from New Zealand would be wanting to immigrate to the U.S, I emailed my consulate asking if it were possible for an earlier interview date as I already had all of my forms/medical results ready and compiled in order. I got a reply the next day which brought my interview forward 2 weeks! AND it was at 8:30am, which might be a problem for some people but not me. Honestly it just meant I wouldn't have to mess around for half the day sick to my stomach with nerves.
Interview was ridiculously easy! I arrived really early with a backpack stuffed full of relationship evidence and duplicates of every single form required for the entire process + the tax records of my spouse and co-sponsor and turns out I didn't need ANY of it! (I would still have taken it though  ) 8:30 was the time for first block of interviews. Perfec... read complete review

It was so uneventful, my husband barely spoke of it.

Well I only have good things to say about the US Consulate in Auckland 
They were very helpful from the moment NVC sent me an email informng me they had sent my petition away. I called Auckland and they looked up my case and called me back to let me know that they had the electronic version and the hard copy would be there in a few days.
I got the paperwork quickly after that (please look at NZ Embassy page to see what you can do in advance) and from this moment things moved very fast!  I called the consulate and told them I had already booked a flight out of NZ for Jan 16th so they made a note on my forms that I would like an interview date ASAP. I sent my forms back the same day I got them and a couple of days later I got my interview date... Jan 22nd. Good but I wanted it earlier.. so I called the consulate and they were able to move my interview date forward to Jan 10th!!! (Luckily my medical also got moved for... read complete review

Our experience with the Consulate was very good as per the other reviews I've read here. For some reason the letter scheduling my interview was returned to sender which prompted the Consulate to call me the day beforehand to see if I was still coming. While the time frame wasn't ideal we had everything we needed anyway so I was quite happy to get in before the Christmas holidays.
I paid my visa fee at the post shop and went up to level 3 for the interview. The guy on security was very nice and once he took my phone off me pointed me to a window to hand everything over. It did take about 10 minutes for someone to come to the window after I had rung the buzzer but the lady who did show up was very nice and showed me the returned letter that had been sent back to them. Not quite sure why that happened as the address was correct but by this point it was no big deal. One more form to fill in for good measure and I was told to have a seat and wait.
And wait I di... read complete review
