We arrived at our appointment 15 min before. From the get go everyone was friendly and very helpful. We all received a number. They started exactly on time. They called us one by one, first you go to the application counter where they take all the required documents. The lady made small talk with me while she was taking my paperwork. But enough smalltalk to also be questions about Our relationship. I handed her every document she asked for and she laughed she said when she saw my folder she knew I was prepared and that everything will be in order. She told me to go sit and wait for the next person to call me.
About 10 min later I was called and he made me take an oath and my daughter also wanted to and he giggled. He told me she can go play while we’re busy. He went through my docs and checked and stamped it all. He then asked me my first question - what does my fiancé do for a living? And where is she working?
He then asked me do I understand my rights in the... read complete review

Arrived at 12:55pm for my 13:00pm interview.
Processed through security and given card number.
Was called via intercom to the first window where I dealt with a South African lady who was really sweet and conversational. She asked for a few documents and asked some questions. When last did I see my fiancé? When are we getting married? The rest was just casual discussion about immigrating.
Submitted the following paperwork at the first window;
Police Clearance
Unabridged Birth Certificate
Affidavit of Support (Tax forms)
Evidence (Continuation of relationship)
Passport photo’s X2
DS160
Proof of Payment and Appointment Booking
After submitting the above documents went to the interview queue.
After 15 minutes I was called to the interview window. Swore to tell the truth etc. and the interview began. She asked easy questions, how we met? When last ... read complete review

my fiance said the interview was simple and to the point and took only 10min. He had a big book full of evidence but the interviewing person told him to take some evidence that she didnt want to see the entire book (plus it was too big to fit through the pass through window)
questions he was asked
1. where are you going to live in the USA
2. how many times did I visit
3.what kind of work did I do
and she then said all looks well your visa will be ready in 7-10days

Very friendly staff, as nerve wrecking it can be I'll give the same advice everyone else here gave me, be calm and relaxed it goes very smoothly.
Arrived 8 AM for my 9 AM appointment, they let me in as the consulate was very quite, the whole process was under an hour.
Arrived at the consulate and gave the help desk my passport, filled out some piece of paper with case number and my contact details, they applied a sticker on the back of my passport for my pick up location.
Proceeded to sit in the line and wait to be called to counter 4, handed over all the required docs for the k-1 visa.
Then waited to be called to window 6, raised my right hand and confirmed all info supplied and answers are true etc..
Questions he asked:
where did we meet
When did my fiance visit me
what is my background in my studies and work
was I married before/ was my fiance married before

I had my appointment last thursday at 1pm. I got there super early like 11:40 am and then the security guard said I should go to the mall and get some refreshments haha. So I came back at about 12 :20 and there were only two couples lined up on the benches. Met some lovely people going through same or similar processes. We were then called to line up and the man checked out names and photos to make sure they are the right size. Then off we went through security and then through to the main building. Everything honestly went by so fast, we filled out a small piece of paper with our contact info and then went to go sit down and wait for our number to be called. I was number 3. I chatted to some people while we waited as I was a little nervous. About 5 min later I got called to the first window where I met a lovely SA lady who asked me for all my documents and fingerprints:
- DS 160
- PCC - she kept
- UBC - gave back but kept a copy
- passport photos
-... read complete review
