The actual interview process for us was short. The woman that talked my wife was very nice. My wife did her interview mostly in English, but there was a few words that the translator had to translate. The CO asked my wife about what I do, when did she first talked to me, and when did I meet her in person.
The CO then called me up to the window and asked me how did I meet her and when did I first meet her person. Then the CO ask me what do I find special about my wife and she also ask the same question to my wife.
Next, the CO told me to show her a few pictures that were meaningful in our relationship and not to show her pictures from the wedding. We had well over 200 pictures, but I only showed 5 pictures to her.
Before my wife was called to the window for the interview, I saw the pink slip and I know that we had did good in preparing our paperwork.
All in all, the most difficult process for us, like everyone said, was the wai... read complete review

Our interview date was a long time coming, but we finally had it yesterday and everything went pretty smoothly. Our interview time was set for 9:30 and we arrived at the consulate around 7:30. Entry was a little convoluted, but it worked out nicely. Rather than waiting in line on the street, where one might be subject to the vagaries of street traffic or weather we waited in an entry hall, this was divided broadly into two lines; one for immigrant applicants and one for visitors. In spite of the odd USCIS designation the K1 is an immigrant visa for the consulate's purposes, so we stood in line for perhaps five minutes before being ushered back out of the consulate and into the immigration section proper.
Like virtually everything else in southern Vietnam this was half in doors and half out, somewhat more pavilion than building in the western sense. You are first directed into line for the biometrics. I was waiting in line with Mai Hong at first, but a consular employee d... read complete review

It was a friendly and easy interview for us. We had over 1000+ pictures, 2000+ pages of chat logs, hotel receipts, phone logs, postal letters and gift receipts. We also prepared timeline (very important) and 10 years of residency. The CO mostly read our timeline and didn't even look at other evidences we brought with us. My recommendation to everyone is be over prepared and have your timeline ready.

My finance had her interview today. She said it took 10 minutes. They asked her fairly easy questions, how did we meet, how many times have I visited, when our wedding will be. The wait was not very long. She did not have anything bad to say about them, maybe because she got approved.

Overall I have to say the experience has been very pleasant. The waiting between steps is the hardest part and like most, I wish it could be more efficient. I am not sure if that is on the Consular or if the process just is what it is.
I will say that each part of the process was within the timeline stated, so it was never late. At each point when I had a question, the response from the Consular was very timely, so I felt the customer service was great.
On the day of the interview, my fiance found everyone to be friendly and very helpful. The wait to be interviewed was about 3 hours but it did give her a chance to see how the process played out for others. The atmosphere was good.
After having read about the expereince of several others, I was a little concerned about what to expect. I can honestly say that for us at least, it was a very good experience and I give the staff at the Consular kudos on a job well done!
