We arrived about 1 hour early for the appointment. After entering the Embassy a quick check of our documents was done Interview letter, DS 260 receipt etc.., the staff then placed one photo face down on the passports with a paperclip. We were also asked to fill out the courier slip for Passport/Packet delivery. We were then sent to another floor to wait for the names to be called. When the names were called the VISA preparer asked for our documents. She only did the verification of originals, she did not want the copies of previous documents which included the AOS. She did not look at the additional Proof of relationship that was included. We were then instructed to sit down and wait for the biometrics and interview. There were only 2 Interviewers for all applicants (business employee, students, fiancée, spouses, children) The wait was about 1 hour and 45 minutes for the interview to take place. Interview took about 10 minutes and only consisted of about 4-5 questions. At the begin... read complete review

So patient and helpful. Everyone in the office had a smile and listened to anything we said patiently. I can see how easily one can get frustrated with having to deal with people not having the proper paperwork, explanations, and questions but I noticed everyone at the embassy was calm and helpful. It really made me feel more comfortable because of course it is a big day for us and we are nervous. It seems that the people from beginning to end understand and are willing to help.

Arrived 1- hour early for the appointment. Good thing we did because of the expected/ anticipated wait times. Staff had an initial VISA preparer, followed by the VISA preparer asking some standard question and any other discrepancies towards your specific VISA packet. There were only 2 Interviewers for 30 Applications (business employee, students, fiancee, spouses, children) so we had to wait for a bit. Overall wait from entering the embassy to the end of our VISA interview was 3 1/2 hours. The Interviewer was fair and unbiased to what my spouse had to say. Overall good outcome. I look forward to our future endeavors for her Citizenship down the road.

K1 Interview
Arrived at 710am for 8am appointment. First in line. Line started getting long at 715am. They opened up the door at 730am. We proceeded upstairs to check in. After that we had to go up one more floor to wait for the real processing of our papers. There we learned that being first in the building doesn't determine your place in the queue for processing as other people were called first. On the information display it says though: "Your interview will be conducted within 2hours of your appointment time".
First our paperwork was reviewed by a korean clerk. When everything checked out she told us to have a seat and wait for the consul to call us.
After my fiancee was sworn in by the consul he asked her a few simple questions: when/where did you meet your fiancee? How did he propose? When will you get married? (We answered that that depends on his decision with a smile on our face). He then concluded with: "your visa is approved. cong... read complete review
