Well, I know this is a bit late, but I figured leaving a review will help others. Our K1 was approved July 22, 2013.

Our schedule was 7:30am and we were there at about 6-6:30 am. There was already a long line. There would be a lot of vendors in the area, but just to be sure, do ask the uniformed personnel. (In our case, we asked the guard where the line for the K1 was.)
Personnel will ask for your requirements and look at them, provide you queue numbers but I'll skip right ahead to the interviews part. It probably took two hours from when we got to the embassy, and we finally got to the first interview. He was a middle-aged America who took fingerprints and just looked at my files and ask us how we wer... read complete review

I woke up as early as 4am and ate some light meals. Re checked my documents and make sure my bags don't have USB/Chargers /SD CArd and gadgets .Went to Embassy as early as 5am and to my surprise the lines sooo long even I went there hour before.
Around 6am I'm already inside the embassy .They will ask your appointment letter (with St.Lukes stamp ) and they will give you 2go Forms.
Security inside is so tight
They will give you your number and wait your number to flash .Number flash random so Better don't go around .
The interview is just 4 steps:

Questions were easy. Most of fiancees there were not prepared. Most don't have a 2nd copy of DS-157 something which was written there in the instructions. I had problem with my USB, pusher (i didn't know I have one in my makeup kit), lighter and e-cigarette because they are not allowed! I thought just cameras and cellphone. Oh by the way, so they asked me to go out and dispose or have someone to keep it for me. Fortunately, there are women who keeps your stuffs, accredited by US embassy and i paid 100Php after the interview. Well, this was like 4mos ago. Those were the vivid memories during my embassy interview.
