My interview was last August 12. I got there at around 6:30am for my 7:30 interview. The was a guard who checked my papers & told me to line up at K. I did. When I got to the front of the line the lady told me I had to line up at either a or b cause I was in the wrong line. I lined up at b. I was second in line the lady in front me was in the wrong line. When I got to the front before the lady even saw my papers she yelled out you should be in the other line (where I was before) then I said I'm applying for a K1 visa! Then she said okay just wait. Then she told me to go to the back of the line for Line A. She should've just told me that before making me wait at b! The Filipino employee from the 2nd step asked for my Passport, NBI Clearance, Cenomar, Birth Certificate & DS2019 from my previous J1 visa.

First off, you really don't have to be there crazy early because you all enter at the same time (around 7am -ish). The waiting times between counter can be really long but each counter transaction doesn't last for even 5 minutes. I honestly had no problems with the American Consuls. I think the pre-screening area with the Filipino personnel were much more problematic. They can only deal with basic requirements/documentation and not really familiar with other details (or just lack total initiative to go out and beyond their duties to help the client).
(Warning: Rant!)
I have sort of a special case since I had a legal name change effected last 2005 (NOTE: IF YOU HAD ANY CHANGES TO YOUR BIRTH CERTIFICATE GET AN NBI CLEARANCE FOR BOTH THE OLD AND NEW NAME). I have all the needed documents especially the 2 NBI clearances but the personnel insisted that I should have also submitted a CENOMAR for my old name. I explained that it wouldn't make sense to do that because one... read complete review
