The interview itself was quick and painless. Just a few simple questions were asked: How we met, what is his fiance's name and address. Was told that everything looks in order and congratulations your visa will arrive soon.
He was there for about 3 hours, the majority of the time there was just waiting to be called for each window - to submit any additional paperwork then the actual interview.

Ana and her daughter, Maria, got an early morning flight on Ryanair, from Lisbon, for 30€ a ticket. Damn good thing they checked in online and printed the boarding passes, otherwise it is 70€ to do it at the airport. As expected, it was a crappy airline, but serviced the purpose. They arrived at BVA, north of Paris, and handed the bus driver the 17€ tickets to Porte Maillot in Paris. The bus left 10 mins later and they were at Pershing Parking about 45 mins later. To their surprise, the La Poste on Av de la Grande Armee was permanently closed. The La Poste behind the Disney store on des Champs Elysees was open, but did not have a Chronopost envelope more than 0.5kg. So, they continued on to the La Poste behind the embassy. They picked up the 2kg European Chronopost envelope for 58€ (eeek! :O). The people there knew EXACTLY what was needed, and one of them even spoke Portuguese. They arrived to the entrance about 20 mins before the 1:00pm appointment. The guys outside... read complete review

Well, since 2012 all Immigrant Visas aren't dealt on the USA Embassy in Portugal, you have to make extra arrangements to go to Paris, France. (And extra charge on all this also expensive process).
But It ended up being a nice stay as I had my father as might trip companion and this was his first long flight and first time in Paris. I got to show him lot of places, and remember last time I had been in Paris with my Husband.
So I was very nervous, I barely slept the night before the flight to Paris, and the night before the interview was struggle with insomnia.(I stayed 2 days in Paris)
To get to the Embassy I advise line 12 of the Metro, and get out on the Concorde, as the embassy is right on the corner of the subway station, though we decided to walk to the Embassy.
But then it came the 17th, We decided to make a picnic on the gardens in front of the Embassy. When we arrived there were a lot of people already on the... read complete review

As confirmed from the consulate in Lisbon, as of the end of May 2012, all immigrant visas, INCLUDING the non-immigrant K-1 visas, are processed at the embassy in Paris, almost 1000 miles away.
All future reviews of the Portugal embassy, regarding the K-1 visa, should be reviews of the French embassy instead.
