So I had my interview on 3rd September at my appointment was set for 11am. I travelled down via train to Euston then Ubering to the Embassy. I arrived at the embassy at 10:35 believing I had a lot of spare time. The queue to get into the first building which is the security building was extremely long, they make you have your passport and DS-160 form ready for them to check. I was worried I wouldn't make my appointment time, I went to the desk at around 10:55 to clarify my appointment was 11am and she said it's fine it's all sorted by appointment time inside anyway and I wouldn't be classed as late as I was already there in line. Once you get to the front of the queue they look at your passport and DS-160 and if you are applying for a K1 visa you will get told to go to the front of the other long line waiting to go through security, which seems rude but you just have to do it.
Once you are at the door you will not be able to take any large electronics in like laptops or... read complete review

Took the train down to Vauxhall station, and took a 15 minute walk, had to get passport photos as mine were UK sized whoops :/ ended up stopping in the coffee shop just before the embassy to get the photos cut they were super nice and let me borrow their scissors.
I got to the embassy 45 minutes early and decided to que up as it was busy once I got to the little booth they have they instructed me to skip the line which felt honestly so messed up but I did. Security was easy told me to open my phone on the clock or calendar app then told me to put my bag through the scanner and for me to take a sip of my drink.
I get up to reception and they ask for the ds160 and my passport they give me a little sticker and tell me to go up to the lift take a left and another left to find the number that was stapled on my ds160.
I sit and wait to be called took a good 20 minutes he was very lovely and I think he appreciated me sorting my files into neat pile... read complete review

This is all secondhand information from my fiance!
He had his interview this week at the consulate in London. His was an early morning appointment so he did arrive the night before and stayed at the Vauxhill Travel Lodge. He did get the late checkout so that he would have a place to keep his things during the interview, and in case things went over. He would have been back in plenty of time for normal checkout, but he felt better not having to rush.
He had all of his information organized in an easy-to-navigate folio, and we used everyone's reviews to determine the order. This is how we laid out his binder:
- Interview appointment confirmation screen (had courier info and visa paid receipt)
- DS160 Confirmation page
- Current passport
- Birth Certificate - long form
- Police Certificate (UK ACRO)
- Divorce decrees for both (US divorce decree was certified and file stamped)
- 2 color US passport photo of ... read complete review

Hi all,
I had my visa interview earlier today and I am happy to say that I was approved. I thought I would leave a review in regards to my experience and that it might help answer any questions that some people have.
I got up at 06:00 this morning after stopping the night at my cousins and decided to get an Uber to the Embassy as although I could have taken the train to Battersea Park Station and then walk to the Embassy I felt getting a Uber was the better option from where I was staying in London as it was quicker, direct and didn't run the risk of any public transport delays. It took about 30 minutes to get to the Embassy and I arrived at 07:05. There were a lot of people queuing up already.
As I was too early for my 08:30 appointment, I went across the road to one of coffee shops - District Coffee - as I had read online that they stored bags. They were open from 07:30 but there were 2 employees who were outside around 07:15 and I asked o... read complete review
