Review Topic: K1 Visa

Queue was huge and took a long time. Arrived at 8, finally got in at 9:08. The reason the queue took so long is many people still had phones and electronic devices. Some got sent away to store their phones, and came back later and still had iPads and kindles. And there was a long delay caused by some guy in an electric wheelchair who showed up without photo ID, and they stopped everything for half an hour just to process him and take him through security.

Anyway, after I got in the whole process didn't take long. I was waiting maybe half an hour for my first call, and then about ten or fifteen minutes for my second call. They only wanted my passport, birth cert, police cert, affidavit of support, one of Cori's pay slips, and a passport photo. The interview questions were all standard. Where/when/how we met, where Cori works, what I do, if I intend to get a job, what our plans are, where I'm going to live. The guy was real friendly and cheerful too.

Anyways... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

Well that was all bit surreal. I got to the embassy for 07:05, there were two queue points, one for US citizens and one for visa applicants. I was the first there, some other people turned up and a lady come over to ask if any of us had electrical equipment or key fobs etc. Some did, so off they went directed to near by chemists that can store these things for a small price.

The lady then checked my letter and that I was on her list. After that, I was asked to wait by a pillar where I took off my belt and put it, my keys and money etc in my bag - in preparation for security. Security it pretty much the same as the airport, put your bag on the belt and walk through the scanner and pick up on the other side.

You then leave this small building outside the embassy and walk to the right, around the embassy to a different entrance. At reception I handed over my letter, MRV and passport. The receptionist then printed off some barcode labels and stuck them on th... read complete review

Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa

This is a review of a CR-1 interview when doing DCF.

When i got to Goulds at around 6:55, it was closed so i went for a walk down to the Embassy and there was nobody there. Not even the beginnings of a queue. Back to Goulds i went and they opened up around 7:10 and i stored my things for £3.

Back at the Embassy by about 7:15, there were about 15 people there. They were all there for Citizen Services or Non-Immigrant visas. At about 7:25, they brought out the desk and started checking peoples appointment letters and passports and let people into the security room 4 at a time, giving plastic bags to people to put belts and watches into.

When i got inside, i got my number at the desk. I was I901. I was inside and sat down by 7:40. At 7:58, they called the first N numbers. After about 5 of those, at 8am i was called up to desk number 1. It was the famous \"dragon lady\". If her lanyard is anything to go by, she is probably Malaysian. She was f... read complete review

Review Topic: K1 Visa

I am writing this review on behalf of my fiance, who had his K1 visa interview today. He got there about 8:00 AM, an hour before his interview, and verified that he had his packet 4 letter and then was let in the building.

After a while, he was called up to a window and gave a friendly American woman his certificates and my financial documents. They laughed over the huge folder he had with all of our evidence and she gave him his chest X-Ray.

When he got called up to another window two hours later, he had his interview with a young man who kept the tone friendly. He was asked the following questions:
How did you meet?
Who were you with?
What is her job?
Are you sure you want to get married after knowing each other less than a year (this seemed to be a trick question, as we have known each other a few years)?
What is her job? (This was asked twice)

He was also shown the pictures I sent with the I-129F and a... read complete review
