One surprise here was that all of the paperwork (except medical) needed to be complete before an interview date would be given, so instead of just bringing the I-134 to the interview as planned, it had to be FedExed in advance. Once the interview date was scheduled, the medical just had to be done (on a walk-in basis) at least 6 days prior to the interview.
Our interview appointment was at 1:00. We arrived and parked in a small lot outside of the embassy grounds and walked through the security gate. Ingrith (Panameña) was asked for her appointment slip, but they didn't at any point ask for my (USC) ID. All electronic equipment (including a flash drive that I hadn't realized was in my bag) had to be left at the security desk, so don't plan on presenting any evidence in electronic format.
There appeared to be 3 immigrant visa applicants on this day, all with 1:00 appointments, and we were handled second in line. Once inside, we waited for about a half hour before being cal... read complete review

Well we got there on time for the interview, it was at 1pm, but Ricardo didn't get interviewed until about 2:45. The interview is not in a separate room, it's at a window (kind of like how you buy movie tickets), and the interview is in Spanish. Ricardo tried to say a few words in english to see if the interviewer would change but she kept doing it in Spanish. Anyways they asked him very detailed questions on how we met, how old we were when we met, and things like where i go to school where do I live and since my mom is a co-sponsor they asked him questions about her too. The interview was about 20 minutes tops but they asked him one question after another, I'm so proud of him for remembering everything! Since he didn't have his Record Policivo and Carta de Solteria ready (Panama is very slow in getting these documents) they told him to come back with those documents and his passport. So all in all if you have all your documents ready, and you can answer the questions yo... read complete review
