Default K3 visa interview

Does anyone know what the visa interview process is like? What should my husband expect at the US embassy in London? We are so happy that we have finally got the interview scheduled but are a little nervous!

Below are a few links to other peoples experiences that might help to put your mind at rest.

I know how you feel about the nerves, I have my CR1 interview on Tuesday and my nerves are shot!

Why K3? Water under the bridge now...but probably not the wisest move.

Out of curiosity what would have been the better option FatBrit?

as FB mentions, because the K3 is a waste of money, doesn't save any time and then you've got the added expense, hassle and time of adjusting status once getting to the US rather than just waiting for the greencard to arrive.

Back to your original question (and don't worry about what would have/could have been.. you got your interview, yay!)....
The K-3 interview is the same as the other marriage-based interviews: most commonly referred to as an anti climax.
There will be the handing over of papers, another wait, a very brief personal conversation, the only questions will be things he knows the answer to and then you wonder why the big trip to town?

You can search here for "interview experience" to pull up some old posts. Basically, it's going to take the better part of a day to get your own 5 minutes of fame.
Oh, and don't take *anything* electronic to the Embassy, even a car fob.
