She said the process was quick and simple and everyone was so nice. The 1st person at pre screen asked to see the album.A few questions were asked of her son, which was, what is his name?, has her son met me in person, when did I visit and so forth. Then Ella's interview were asked simple questions, such as what I'd my job in the military?, where did we meet, have we met in peon, , how long have we been together? The documents that she brought with her, the consular did not need but it shows to always be prepared.

Interview date was 12/13/2016
Interview was very smooth and the staff were very friendly. ****If you have worked abroad in the last five years get your COC (certificate of clearance) started as soon as possible. This step cost us more than a month of time. When we finally received a certificate from Singapore, it had the wrong dates, even though they just had to COPY the dates we sent them. They had to send a second document.***** Suggestions for a smooth interview: 1) Arrive on time, 2) Have your documents ready including the copies of what was submitted to USCIS, 3) SMILE and be friendly. The staff was friendly and willing to help with questions. Good luck and God bless.

My fiance had to fly from Mindanao to Manila for her scheduled interview. She had to take a few days off from her work schedule as an elementary school teacher. She did not want to fly there alone, so I purchased a ticket for her and her niece. I also reserved 2 nights in a hotel near the US consulate. They had a relative living in Manila, so the relative met them and showed them around Manila. My fiance does not like Manila, because of the bad reputation for crime.
I was in the USA, so I had to make all the arrangements from here. I sent them some money using Xoom, to pay for taxi and food while in Manila.
The interview went well and she is now living here in California as my wife. We are applying for a green card.javascript:emoticon(' ')

It was a nice experience. All employees there are very accommodating.
Tips:
1. When you arrive, dont bother yourself with all those people trying to persuade you to buy ballpen or take sit on their chairs (30php) or take a photo with collar (you only need 1, and you can provide the pics same as what you have provided during your medical) and as much as possible leave your gadgets at home (200php per item if you want to risk your belongings under someone you don't even know 😑 )
2. Just follow the instructions of those US embassy employees that will assist you.
Don't hesitate to ask. 
3. Bring complete docs needed during your interview. They will all need original copies.
4. During interview.. be confident.. answer them honestly. The consul will know if you are lying or not 
5. Just a friendly tip.. Always greet them with a sincere smile..and thank them before leaving the counter ... read complete review

Interview date: 4th April 2017
My interview was scheduled 9.30am so i reached the place at around 9.15. There was quite a lot of people outside the embassy so I was asked to queue up as well. The lady assisting people along the queue asked me to move up front when i showed her I'm applying for k1 visa. It probably took me another 15 mins til they asked me come in and leave all the electronics devices in the security check point. There i walk inside and another lady checked my bag again.
Upon entering the consulate another person asked me what visa am I applying for and told her k1. She gave me a queue number and told me my number would be called in a while so I sat down first. I waited aroung 10mins probably and my number wad called.
Asian guy officer asked me the following:
My birth certificate
Police clearances (Singapore and Philippines)
ROM - Singapore marriage cert (I ordered it under my passport number so i had to ... read complete review
