I was at the embassy at 8 am, and lined up by the sign that says to line up there if you're a US citizen or you have an immigrant visa interview scheduled. After about 10-15 minutes of waiting I was called up to security, where I had to show them my passport and DS-160 confirmation page, plus take off my jacket and show them the bottoms of my shoes. Then inside, through the metal detector, where they gave me a receipt for my cell phone and keys, that I wasn't allowed to bring in with me.
Inside, the security officer didn't know if the K1 was an immigrant or non-immigrant visa - I told him immigrant, and was sent to window G. There I gave them my passport at first. I was then called back to window G a little later, to give them the rest of my paperwork (passport photos, I-134, proof, birth certificate, police certificate, divorce decree with translation). He also asked me a few questions about how/when we met, and had me write my name and address on an envelope.

Being from Norway we have to go through the embassy in Stockholm for all immigrant visas.
I flew in the day before my appointment since it was schedule fro 8:30am and no flights arrive early enough from Norway to make it there in time. Stayed at the Riddergatan Hotel which was actually very nice and pretty affordable. It was in walking distance from both the embassy and the train station (about 15 min from the station and 20 min from the embassy).
Embassy opens at 8:00am, but I was there at 7:50am, and they already started to let people in. It was just me and another person waiting. Went through security with just one slight hitch, I brought tons of letters that my wife had written me over the years (as evidence of bonafide marriage), when they sent them through the xray they saw that one of the letters contained some small electronics. I then had to go through all the cards to figure out which one it was (around 50 letters/cards), but it turns out it was a Twili... read complete review

Arrived early in the morning as the 2nd applicant, 30 minutes before my interview. The interviewer was a nice young lady, and it was done quick. Gathered a lot of proof, which helped. I was notified instantly that my application was approved, and was out in an hour after arriving. Over all great experience.

It took 12 min to pass the security check, hand over the paperwork they asked for and answer a few basic questions and get out again. Easy

Arrived at the embassy at 8:30 for my 9:00 appointment. Two people were ahead of me in the immigrant line inside the embassy. Gave the Swedish guy all my paperwork, and was told that my police certificate was not accepted because it was in Norwegian. I had translated it myself and "certified" it according to USCIS recommendations, but since he knew I could get it in English, I had no luck reasoning with him..
I had prepared lots of information to prove that we have an ongoing relationship, but they did not want it.
So I sat down, waited for 1.5 hours or so, and had my interview. The little old lady started off by asking "Tell my about your future wife", and I told her how we met and what she is like. Other questions seemed more random, like "What does your fiancee love and hate", "What do you like to do together", "Where will you be living", "Who will control the finances", "Does she like your cooking" "How much did she make last year", "Does your family... read complete review
