Got to the embassy about 30 min before my appointment. Lot of people waiting in line already. Most of them for non-immigrant visas.
Went up to the window by the main entrance where they ask you to show them your passport, remove your jacket, show the soles of your shoes and look inside any bag you might have brought (I recommend to not bring anything you absolutely do not need as there are limited storage)
Next you go through a ordinary security check (like at the airport) follow the yellow line up to the consulate where you are greeted by another security officer who asked you what type of visa you are there for.
I was told to go up to window 7, where I has to stand in line so another nice Swedish woman waived me over to another widow where the "pre-interview" took place. She was very nice and we chatted while she asked for all of my documents. I was told to sit down and wait until my name was called. Around 20-30 min wait approx.
My name was called to win... read complete review

Arrived in Stockholm 14th of December. Our interview was the 15th of December. I had both my daughters with me. Age 12 and 14, I was told to bring them both even though it says everywhere than children under the age of 14 does not need to attend the interview.
We stayed at a hotel/hostel close to the embassy. STF Gärdet, highly recommended. It was cheap and cozy!
Our interview was at 8:30am the next morning. We walked from the hotel to the embassy. It was freezing cold but a. Ice walk. It's just across the field from the hotel. Took us about 30 min to walk because it was very icy. Got to the embassy and there was no one in line for immigrants. We stood in the right place. The line for non-immigrants was long, but not too long.
After a few minutes the guard at the embassy told everyone to stay in the same line so we had to move to the back of the non-immigrant line. Blah. But the line moved pretty fast so it wasn't too bad. I was stressing a little bit because ... read complete review

Showed up at the consulate at 8 am. Interview was scheduled at 8.30 am. Waited in the Immigrant visa line and was called after a couple of minutes. Showed my ID through the window, opened my bag so they could look into it, went behind the yellow line, had to take my jacket off and turn around, then show the underside of my shoes. Then I was allowed into the security area. A full screening was done,..just like at the airport. Keep in mind you are not allowed to bring your phone, your wrist watch, car keys, headphones or any electronics inside. They even kept the memory stick I had i my purse. I was told to follow the yellow line to the next building and go to window 7. A nice young lady asked me to hand over my documents in the order she asked for them. Then finally to put my name and address on the package envelope. Then to sit down and wait to be called for my interview. I waited for an hour before I was called to window 4. Read the pledge and gave my fingerprints. Then he started ask... read complete review

Thanks to VJ I had a very enjoyable time at the consulate, although nervous and shaking from standing in the cold rain outside.
My appointment was for 08.30, and I arrived more than an hour early. They started letting people in at 07.30. I stood in the (not sheltered) immigrant line all by my lonesome and was prioritized to come in. The security guys seemed confused that I was there so early, but took pity on me and waived me in.
The most awkward part was doing the little dance outside the window before they let me in (up to the window, back behind the line, take jacket off, turn around and show your feet etc, ha-ha). After that they let me in, I went through the security check and they took my phone. I got to keep the canvas bag with documents and my valet. I was told to go to window 7 inside the consulate.
Since I was early I waited for a while before somebody came to see me. The first lady took my passport and told me to wait.
