Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

Went quite smoothly. Arrived half an hour before my interview, and as others have mentioned, skipped the super long queue and went straight to the entry desk. They scanned my DS-260 and passport and put me through the TSA-style security screening.

Afterwards there was the reception that gave me a ticket number and told me where to go. When I arrived there, I was very quickly called to a window for document check and biometrics and told to wait for the interview.

Wait was about 45 minutes and I was called to a window. Interview took maybe 3-5 minutes, questions asked where roughly "When did we meet", "Where are you staying in the US", "Who's your joint sponsor". Very straightforward.

They did have an issue finding one of my documents on their system and thought I didn't upload it, but when I said I did, they looked for it for 5 minutes, found it and told me that it's all good and I'm approved.
I got my civil documents back and told my ... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

I had my K1 interview in September. The queuing system was a shambles, I arrived around 9.30 for my 10.00 appointment and there were already hundreds of people waiting outside. Nobody seemed to know which of the two parallel queues they should join. When I asked a member of the embassy staff I was mistakenly directed to another queue, which turned out to be for US Citizens, so I was sent away to rejoin the back of the ever-growing original queue. Luckily, once I reached the check-in desk, I was allowed to skip ahead as a family visa applicant. Once inside, the rest of the process was easy. The officer at the first window took my documents, then after waiting for around 30 minutes I was called up for the interview itself, which only took a few minutes. Everyone was polite and friendly. The procedure for entering the building was the only stressful and confusing part of the experience!

Arrived 30 mins before my appointment. Quite a large queue outside at the first security checkpoint. But it moved really quick.

Then pass airport style security then into the reception where there was a slight delay. They only let those that were there for a 10am interview/meeting up despite it being 10:15ish (my appointment was 10:30am).

Note: you will see a lot of ds-160 signs, don’t worry our ds -260 actually jumps us to the front of the queue. If like me you thought you had to wait till they began letting up the 10:30s then you’ll end up being late 😁.

I got to the front of the queue at reception and noted I had a ds-260 not a ds-160. The. Dry friendly lady noted I should t have waited lol. So if you have a ds-260, just politely walk to the front and let the reception know it’s a green card interview you’re there for.

I was sent to the lifts to the first floor. Turned left and left agai... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

Husband's testimony: I arrived at the embassy at 0815 for my appointment at 0830. There was a 50+ person queue, I was unsure due to my appointment being so soon that I would be allowed to cut forward.

There was a nice couple who said they would hold my place and I went forward to the people checking your documents before you went in, the guy manning on booth was rather busy and dismissed me saying I have to wait like everyone else.

However 25 minutes after when I got to the front of the queue he questioned why I didn't mention it was an immigrant visa appointment and remarked that there were several people in my situation dealing with being late for their appointment due to the ever growing queue.

Once I passed through security I was seen to at the reception and given my queue number and told to go up the lift to the booths. Upon exiting the lift I was directed to a separate set of booths for immigrant visa appointments. My number was called... read complete review
