DCF CR-1 Visa interview review.
Arrived around 7:30 for an 8am appointment. There was already a queue, but it got moving pretty quickly. A woman was checking people's appointment letters in the queue, and when she got to me with my husband she asked if I'd put him on the access list - said yes, she went off to check, and returned with my interview letter with husband's name written on it.
Went through security then through to reception, where we got our ticket number (I904) and went on into the ugly waiting area. It was pretty busy and even busier by the time we left - looked like a lot of student visas being processed.
After about 20 - 30 minutes, our number came up for window 1. We had a young-ish American man go through our forms. He was fairly jovial. Took my passport, photos, birth certificate and police certificate and my fingerprints.
When we got to the I-864, I let my husband explain what he'd included (our taxes ... read complete review

Dropped off my phone and charger at Goulds Pharmacy (£3), turned right, crossed the road and the embassy is right there. I joined a queue of about 20 people and it moved quickly; showed interview letter once, then again with passport in the queue, then again when you enter the embassy along with MRV receipt. Got given ticket number I907, and sat down in the waiting area. The numbers ping quite regularly, so keep an eye out for your "I" numbers as they are less frequent than the "N" numbers which get called up.
Went to window 13 and handed over interview letter, MRV fee, birth certificate (and adoption) and police certificate and my two photos. Also handed over the affidavit of support, which was the only thing required of the petitioner. The lady then gave me a form for the courier to fill in, then sat back down for another 30 minutes until called up for interview.
The interview was quick and painless. The American guy asked me how we initially met, when I first met her ... read complete review

Finally have time to write my review having driven straight to Newquay for my hen do straight after the interview!!!
I stayed in the Marble Arch Inn, they were very nice and gave me a wake up call as well as holding my bags while I was at the embassy. I drove in Thursday night and parked at the QPark Park Lane car park, which is super near and is just outside the congestion zone. Once I checked in I went to find the embassy so I knew how to walk there on Friday (as I wouldn't have my phone with me and I'm usually lost without google maps.)
When I first saw it it looked very fancy but I was surprised the patrol men were UK police (or looked like it) and not US personel so I was worried I was in the right place (I came at it from behind). Then I looked up and saw an eagle the saize of a large car soaring from the roof - right place for sure then!!!
In the morning, I got up at 6am, left hotel at 7am. The rest of times are a guess because I didn... read complete review

I was challenged by the CO to answer those questions why we did not marry soon if we are already been dating for 6 years. I told him that my husband and I enjoyed our relationship until we decided to be together for life.

Found these really useful when I was preparing for my visa interview so here goes...I had my interview on Tuesday 9th July at 8:30am. Got in the queue for 7:45am and was in by 8:20am (via a quick detour to Gould's cos I forgot I had a memory stick in my bag!). They give you a number (mine was I913) and you wait for it to be called on the big screen. Keep an eye out cos they are calling lots of different numbers (mostly for non-immigrant visas) so be on your toes! I wasn't called to the first window until 9:45am. The lady was really nice, just went through her list and checked I had everything. As long as you're well prepared, you'll be fine. (Passport, 2 photos, birth certificate, police certificate, I-134, bank statement/payslips/letter from employer for my fiance). She put everything in my folder and gave me a slip to fill out for the courier service as well as my chest xray (on dvd) which she said I should carry in my hand luggage in case they ask for it at security.
