Quite simple.
My fiancee went in around 2:30pm and had her interview at 3:00pm. They called her for fingerprints and to hand in the necessary documents. After, she was called to another window for about a two minute interview with very simple questions. They said she was approved.
Why only 4 stars? Well, the embassy sent her visa stapled to the envelope holding the "mysterious packet." She unstapled it, opened the envelope to get the packet (which she did not open...only the envelope which it was inside.) So, because they stapled that back cover (not page, but cover) to the envelope, she has two small holes on it. This shouldn't affect anything, but it is highly unprofessional.

The medical and interview process was quite painless and rather quick. I received the appointment letter on August 31 and my interview was on September 11 at 14:30.
The first thing that I did was calling the clinic to schedule my medical. I was a bit annoyed that they gave me an appointment on September 9, so two days before my interview. Thus, I either had to spent two nights in Madrid or travel twice since I live about 500km away from the capital. I opted for the second option, which resulted in a busy couple of days.
The medical lasted 2.5 hours overall, including waiting time and the walk to the other hospital for the chest X-ray. I waited perhaps for half-an-hour while filling in a form, and then a doctor called me in. He asked me plenty of questions about my medical history and then proceded to do an exploration and checking blood pressure, eyesight, hearing accuracy, heart beating and so on. He was very nice and chatty.
Then I had to ... read complete review

The whole process was relatively painfree. We arrived in Madrid on Wednesday. We decided to make a little holiday out of it and had a great week in an apartment in the Lavapies area, visiting all the museums, etc. Anyway, Thursday morning, I had the medical, which took longer than expected so they gave me a 5 euro voucher to apologize. I had a physical with a really nice, friendly doctor, then went over my vaccine records and had blood taken by a really lovely nurse. I was in there for about 2.5 hours, mainly waiting, but I didn't mind as i had a book. Then I had a quick snack and went on to the Xray - a 15/20 minute walk. That was very quick. I got the results on Friday - they were available after 12.
The interview was fine too, although I felt nervous and knew they would take my mobile, but didn't realize I would have to give up my kindle too. Luckily, there were some really nice people there to chat too so the time went by more quickly. I went over my documents with a woman, ... read complete review
