Review Topic: Other Experience

On 10 June 2013 filled for application CRBA and passport for our son, The CO who interviewed us said all documentation locked okay, paid up the fees and were approved, asked to wait 2 to 3 weeks and we shall be notified to go pick both up.

Waited 4weeks no response from the embassy, wrote an email to them there was no response, so i decided to call them up, the gentleman who picked, took my contact number and he was like he would call me back the next day, come the next day, it clocked midday and there was no call, so i called back and he transferred me to another person, explained my dilema and he also took my details and said he would check for me with the mail department the next day and update me on our application because on the day i called which is a Tuesday, American services were closed because the embassy handles them on Mon, Wed and Friday. (Never know anything like this, is it even true?) So i sent another email trying to find out what was going on and why th... read complete review

Well here is ma review of ma medical appointment and interview date .Ma interview date was on 24th june 2013 and i scheduled ma medical appointment on 17th june 2013 , i arrived at the IOM clinic based in gigiri village market o17th at 6.30am coz ma medical appointment was at 7.30am n i was early but that day we were few people there but i would advise someone to come early coz they work on the first come first serve basis .

Before heading to Nairobi for ma medical appointment i had taken some vaccines from Uganda so as to cut costs at the clinic coz they ask for approx 23,000kenyan shillings but i saved good money when i had ma vaccines from home and i would advise someone to have there vaccines from home n thats a month earlier before yo medical appointment coz when u reach at the clinic they also consider the days of the month u had yo vaccines coz there vaccines that are meant to be had a month before u take another vaccine and here are the vaccines that i had from h... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

The only reason I give this a 1 and not a 0 is that in the end my fiance's visa was approved. In addition, the email system of the consulate was fairly smooth (whenever I emailed, I got a quickly, usually helpful response.) I also had minimal trouble getting through the phone lines (I always called around 2:30 Kenya time.) My fiance's interview in Nairobi was terrible. He was demeaned and ridiculed by the consulate officer, and made to believe his visa was denied based on the fact he and I have some educational differences. He was also told in the interview that his visa would not be granted because he didn't have a police clearance for somewhere he lived almost 10 years ago for less than one year (which the documents provided us said that was not required; such was not the case for us.) After submitting his passport and the police certificat, his visa was approved and after a lengthy wait, he received it via DHL. I am glad he was approved, but it was harrowing and terrible.

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Hey guys, here is a review of how our K1 visa interview went.

I and my fiance arrived at the US embassy in Nairobi on 20th July, 7am. As we walked to the gate, we narrowly survived an accident caused by a bad driver who had previously knocked two people and was trying to run away driving so fast towards our direction. My fiance tripped and fell there by bruising both her knees, elbows and her mouth swelled because she fell on her face. luckily, the speeding car was challenged by the embassy security and we got away.

Once inside the embassy, a big guy approached us and asked if we were together, we said yes. then he asked if we were part of the incident outside the embassy gate and we said yes. then he apologized for what happened and promised to get the embassy medical team to treat the bruises my fiance got. he then took us past the security and then straight to the consular and explained to them why we need to rush through so that the medical team can tr... read complete review
