Dec 17th 2007, early morning and a LONG line to get in. It's freezing cold and I'm dressed way too much like a Southern Cal girl. Brrr. After 50 min in line and definitely no toes and barely any fingers left worth using for anything I'm let in. Luckily no line for the Immigration Visas and I can walk by the crowd of people jamming the door in to the warmth of the Embassy. After 5 min of trying to get the staff's attention someone opens a window and my interview is ON. Nice, Swedish speaking woman, asks only one question before I'm told I need a fingerprint check due to some earlier immigrations problems (which I guess means that I have my own FBI profile  ) $90 later and 30 min waiting I'm called to a window to take my finger prints. The man (American macho type) does the "tough American guy trying to fram innocent Swedish woman", with some not so nice questions before he explains that there should be no problems with my visa but that it will take a couple of days ... read complete review

2007-12-11 The automated NVC phone said my case had been completed and sent to the embassy. I called the NVC, and a person informed me that my interview was on Jan 2nd.
2007-12-17 The appointment letter from the embassy arrived, confirming the time for the interview.
2007-12-27 I did the medical exam (roughly 380 USD). The doctor assured me that he would send the papers to the embassy so they would have it within a week. The appointment letter gave two options for "certified" doctors who could perform the examination in stockholm, I chose the one who got back to me the fastest and was able to schedule an appointment.
2008-01-02 The consulate interview - I had to sign the DS-230 part 2 in front of the consular, as well as hand over a missing tax form of my wife, that was requested. All other documents had already been processed by the NVC. The consular and he informed me that the only thing pending was my medical exam, that had not yet arrive... read complete review

Arrived right on time and stood in the immigrant visa/US Citizen line (way shorter than the other line). Once inside, I walked up to the designated window and processing began immediately. The consular officer was very friendly, and only asked a few questions (has your fiancee been married before, when do you plan to get married, has she been to Sweden). I was then told to wait a while, and some 15 minutes passed before I was called to a second window. There I signed a document stating my intent to get married within 90 days and was told I would have the visa and passport in a few days. Even though they mailed it the next day (Dec 21), it took a week since there was no regular mail delivery from Dec 22-26! That was kinda nerve-wracking for totally irrational reasons. All in all though, super smooth!

The interview was very brief and chatty, and the consular officer was very courteous. All in all it took around an hour including waiting time, and I had my visa in the mail two days later.

Me and my fiancée arrived at the American Embassy in Stockholm 10 minutes late, but still had no problems WHAT SO EVER! The guard was suitably grumpy, but that was only to be expected. After standing in the wrong line for a few minutes, we jumped to the fast lane; the security check was painless and got in right way.
We were called to a counter, surrendered most of the papers, and were told to go sit down and wait. Five minutes later, they called my name and we hurried up to another counter. The "interview" took no more than TEN minutes! Overall, it was a very quick and pleasant experience.
(Can't believe I'm the first to write a review for Sweden! XD)
