My interview was on June 10.
The entire interview process is relative simple and easier than I expected although I waited outside of the embassy for a good 45 minutes.
The first guy I met was a Chinese who mainly to ensure the completeness of all my supporting documents. He only asked me how I met my hubby, what he does and requested for some photos of us. That's it!! Nothing tricky.
The second guy I met was a Caucasian and he is the real Officer who tells you whether he would approve your application. He was very straight forward and told me my case look good and he would approve it within the next day to two.
Yay....and I thought my VISA process ends here, but guess what!!!!!
I found it on Jun 15 that they are not able to issue my visa due to some technical issue with all the VISA systems overseas. I am very upset and disappointed about this as I am supposed to attend my sis-in-law's wedding on the 20th in ... read complete review

Appointment: 09:15 am
Reached: 09:00 am
Entered: 09:20 am
Took photographs from embassy photo booth. It takes only 35 seconds.
Part 1: Document Check (@09:35 am)
The Asian guy was really nice and asked me for Birth Certificate, Police Certificate and photocopies of Birth Certificate. Then he asked for Affidavit of Support. Then briefly asked me to explain how did we first meet and how many times have we met in person. After that he asked me to take seat and an American CO will call me.
Part 2: CO (@09:45 am)
The CO took my finger prints and asked me that how did you first meet and then said your case looks good and I will approve the visa. But I had to leave Singapore for 2 weeks so took back the passport and now my visa will be issued once I am back to Singapore.
I was out of the embassy by 10:05 am.
All officers working in the Embassy are really experienced and know what they are doing. If you are ... read complete review

Singapore USA embassy is generally very very efficient. Once i had my case complete, i received my interview date in less than 2 weeks.=)
The only thing to note is, USA consulate in singapore now hands the actual passport visa collection to a company called Aramex. So i had to renew my passport just before the interview, and i did not remember the details to my passport. Upon completion of interview, i was supposed to log on the a cgifederal website to register which Aramex i would like to pick up my passport from. To my horror i needed to know my new passport number. I had no clue, i could not reenter the embassy, so i put in my singapore I/C number and am now praying for the best. Nerve wrecking feelings are normal at the embassy, but if your case is strong, you're going to get approved!

Interview went well, my appointment was for 9.15AM. I arrived at the embassy at 8.45AM and was asked to join the IV queue outside the building. There was only 1 other person in the IV queue. Many others behind us in the Non Immigrant queue.
Was called to the security post about 10 minutes later, went through security and got a queue number. Was expecting a wait, but my number was called immediately. An asian man checked my documents and asked me some basic questions.
- How did you two meet? (We met in a church)
- What church was it?
- What does your fiance do?
- Has he shared his salary information with you?
He took I-134, a few of my fiance's recent paystubs, his employer and bank letter and 3 recent photos. He asked if my fiance's current job is his first, and required no further explanation for the lack of W2s submitted.
I had compiled his paystubs and bank statements from the past year and these were all retu... read complete review

Two interviews as expected. First one more difficult than I anticipated (and somewhat does not make sense), second one straight forward. Result: case looks good - under final review, if nothing else will get notice to pick up passport with visa in a week's time (5 working days I believe).
Singaporean officer who reviews documents: (he insisted it was not "the" interview) - questions recalled from memory in no particular order:
> Old passports? Show me old US visas (I was a student and worked in the States before) - so that I can verify you haven't overstayed (?! I thought they are immigration they would have known that already?)
> Might need updated bank statements (from US spouse) (turns out didn't)
> Where did you meet? Any photos before wedding? (We've been living in Singapore together for a while, nothing long distance dated here got married here so didnt bring a lot of proof - luckily husband got a photo in his wallet - did not seem the American... read complete review
