I arrived at 920am (interview was scheduled for 1015am). There was no queue. I showed the guard my appointment letter and he asked me to wait for security to wave me through. I entered the room with the security scanner. There were some backpacks and luggage bags with tags stored there - and they will also keep your mobile phone if you need them to. I didn't bring mine with me.
Once you leave that room, you turn left and left again and go up the long-ish walkway. The building you want is at the end of the walkway, to the right. Show the lady inside your appointment letter and she will tell you to go to the visa room (first room on the left).
The visa room was pretty crowded and seats were all filled. I pressed the first button (immigrant visa) for a queue number (006). They were currently serving 003. All immigrant visas are first heard at window 7. What they say about people being able to hear everything you say is absolutely true. There's maybe a 2-3 s... read complete review

Interview originally scheduled for Nov 19th, but a guy from the embassy called and asked if they could move it ahead to Nov 15th instead. I gladly agreed and received an appointment letter via post a couple of days later.
On the day of, I arrived at the embassy at 7:50am - 55mins earlier than my appointment. Didn't have to wait in line outside, just went through security and was directed to the consulate section. I was told that the service for immigrant visas don't start until 9am so I had to take a number and just wait.
The consulate section was smaller than expected with loads of people waiting around for their non-immigration visas. The set up of the consulate is pretty similar to those in the bank teller service, when your number flashes, you'll go up to the counter and greet the officer which is sitting behind a glass window. You don't have a lot of privacy as everyone in the room can pretty much hear what you're saying if they really want to. java... read complete review

My interview was set for 8.45, we arrived around 8am and entered within 15 minutes. We waited for a while inside before I was called to the first part of my interview, but that was on us for being super early.
Was asked a few basic questions, took about 10 mins. Told to sit back down and wait to be called by the consulate, called again in another 10 minutes, out the door less than 20 minutes later.
Super easy process going in and out! Only kind of weird that everyone can hear/see what's going on with your interview.

-embassy appointment time is 9:45am, arrived at the embassy around 9:am.
-security check, the guard took my cell phone and thumb drive. then they told me after the door turn left, then I walk until I reach the second security door or information, then after that I reach the embassy lobby and one lady approached me and helped me to which department I have to go in. then she told me to get a queue number. inside that room there's a lot of applicants sitting there, so I sit down and relax for about 10 minutes my number was called at window 7, the first interviewer was a Chinese guy, he gave me my xray and after that he ask my passport, form I-134, ds156k and ds156 (2copy) but guys do not just photocopy the ds156 because they need your actual signature not just photocopy. So in my case He gave me another form of ds156 to fill up and sign. he let me sit down first. and while doing my ds156 form he call another applicant, so I have to wait again until the next applicant is done. after... read complete review

Smooth process, excellent consulate - in short.
Now for the long story.
- Interview slot at 9.45am; arrived at the embassy at 9.00am.
- Went through security check at the gate to surrender electronic devices. (Guys, make sure you check with the security guard where you should go because there was also a queue for non-immigrant visas in the open space)
- Interview hall has a mix of people interviewing for both immigrant and non-immigrant visas, for immigrant visas, our counter should be at counter seven.
- I was called immediately because the Chinese lady before me seemed to have forgotten something. (Guess it pays to be early and well-prepared!)
- Officer A is a nice young chap. I told him I was here for K1 visa and he confirmed my name before leaving to retrieve my data.
- After five seconds (I was surprised! Almost instantly things magically appeared!), he came back with my docum... read complete review
