Just had my K1 visa interview on February 2nd, 2017, at 8.30.
I arrived at around 8 with plenty of people waiting in line... for non-immigrant visas! Nobody was in the line for immigrant visas/US citizens inquiries, which is where I was supposed to stand  Stood there for about 1 minute with my friend before the nice security guard told me to come forward.
Went through security, left my phone in a property box and walked in. There was nobody inside except security and people working there so I headed directly for window 7. A really nice man took my passport and visa application confirmation and then proceeded to tell me this was not the interview but that he was going to collect all the necessary documents.
Because my fiancé had mailed me the I-134 + pay stubs + employment letter + 1040 form and it had not yet arrived (SO upset with the US Postal Services at the moment) I knew I didn't have the evidence of support documentation ... read complete review

My interview took place at January 12, 2017 and was scheduled for 8:30 AM. I arrived a little after 8 and went to stand in the immigration line. I was the only one in the line. I only had to wait for one person to go before me, and then it was my turn. I showed the security officer my passport, the bottom of my shoes, took off my jacket, headband, mittens and scarf, and showed him the contents of my bag. The only things I brought was my documents, my phone, my keys, and my credit card and driver's licence. I was then let inside the glass building where the security check takes place. My items were scanned and I left my phone there as you are not allowed to bring it into the embassy. I was told to follow the yellow line and go to window 7, which I did.
At window 7, a nice, younger man approached me. I gave him all the documents he asked for. The only document he asked for which I did not have was my fiancées W2. I explained that she hadn't filed taxes for her new job y... read complete review

I went to Stockholm Embassy the 8th of September 2016. Before you enter the embassy make sure you stand in the right queue/line. They have two of them. One is covered by a roof-corridor like a bus stop, the other one got a sign. For K1-visa you should stand next by the sign, next by the one not covered by the roof. It was pointed out later by the guard once he called me to step forward and knew what I was there for. The guards did an airport-like control and had to me check in my cell phone and keys in a lockbox. In return I received a ticket so that I could retrieve back my belongings once I was done with my interview.
I followed a white line on the ground from the guards house to the waiting room inside the embassy. Once there the waiting time was around 30 minutes. People arrived at the embassy for different reasons, some were there for K1-visa, others were importing cars from US, a girl I spoke to lost her VISA and was there to get another one, etc.
When it wa... read complete review

I arrived at the Consulate around 7:20 and when I got there, there was one person before me in the immigrant line. Remember to go to immigrant! As the embassy opens around 8am, we had to wait. Eventually they started calling people in, and as we got through the embassy security, you walk up to Window 7! The guard right inside helps you a lot if necessary.
I got called up to Window 7 and the friendly woman in the window took my papers, asked me a few questions such as how did you two meet, when did you meet, what did your parents think about your meeting (as we had letters about our relationship from his parents as well as mine). Remember, that this is not the interview! It's just to gather information and documents. I then got told to take a seat and wait for my name to be called.
After about 10-20 minutes, I got called into the next window, and that's where my interview was held. A very nice man held it, I took my fingerprints and I held my oath.

Whatever you do, don't trust public transport. So unless you live close by or you're driving to the embassy for the interview I recommend you to go there the day before and stay at a hotel close by so you can just walk there in the morning. That way it doesn't matter if the trains or busses don't go on time.
I can also highly recommend STF Gärdet in case you want a hotel close by. I was very happy with my stay there and it's only a 15 minute walk across the field and you're at the embassy. It's also cheaper than many other places which might be a good thing to some (like me).
My appointment was on a Monday at 8:30 in the morning, I arrived at the embassy at about 7:40 and stood in the immigrant/US citizen line with only one other person. The non-immigrant line was very long already then, so you could really tell the difference between the two. I stood there for about 15 minutes and was then called up to the window of the security booth to show my pass... read complete review
