Good job Pax, how did you get it to all line up properly? I attempted but it was all over the road so I gave up.

Congratulations to Weebeansy for their approval yesterday. It has been a good month for London.

Yorkie

The trick is to not copy the text right out of a post--you have to use the "quote post" option of the most recent version of the list, and then copy and paste the text along with all the code used.

I figured that out after about 20 minutes of tinkering. I am willing to help with the posting after I get back from Damian's interview.

This new board format hurts my eyes.

Congrats to Weebeensy and her SO , great news.

YAY! Congratulations, Weebeansy. About time!

Weebeansy! I think my last post was lost, so I'll tell you again: CONGRATS! I know you've been waiting a long time and I am happy for you!

Congrats to Weebeansy!! and good luck to next week's interviews!!

Well, I'm about to get on the plane so I can go to Russ's visa interview with him! (Got to love wi-fi connections in the airport, been blogging from the gate...)

Yay Gwen!! Good luck!!

Good luck Gwen. You will be approved in no time!!

Jon arrived yesterday ready for our interview Tuesday, see you tuesday morning Gwen and Rich hopefully

Janice

Good luck to Missycuk on Monday and to all of Tuesday's interviews- 4 more approvals to add to the list!!

Got my packet 4 in the mail yesterday

I forgot to mention we got our packet 4 on Jan. 24- we have triple checked all of our papers and have two copies along with the originals of everything. Very exciting- more anxious to arrive next Friday and see my husband than I am for the interview the following Monday. Does anyone think we should drag photos as proof of our relationship to the interview- I'm inclined to think it won't be necessary.

Hi everyone,

Just a quick message to say "good luck" to everyone who are having an interview next week. I too have my K1 scheduled on Thursday in London, and I'm sure that I am not alone to say that I'm pretty nervous about it

I have a few more reasons to be than others though, as I have two previous convictions and whilst I am sure they don't constitute CIMT and where more than 10 years ago, the interview could go either way!! which is a very nerve-racking thing to deal with (I have a waiver prepared)

That leads me on nicely to say that I just want to thank everyone on this forum for all the help and advice over the last few months, including pax, nigel, munchkins and Liam. Forums such as these are sooo useful and everyone is so incredibly helpful and considerate, I wouldn't have gotten this far without VJ!!

anyway guys, I'll keep my fingers crossed for all of you (I'm heading down to the capital tomorrow to spend a few nights with friends), please keep your fingers crossed for me too!!! as I really need "lady luck" to be shining on me



Paul

Good luck to everyone who has interviews this week.
I will be keeping my fingers crossed that you all get approved

Donna

James has just received Packet 3, so you can go ahead and add our name to the waiting for the interview list and I'll update you when he sends P3 back into London. I hope we get an interview late March, early April, what does everyone else think of this possibility?

Possibly good. I think Shakysgirl sent theirs in the week prior to me, mine was 1/10, and they have their interview date.

Miranda,

The best way to get a speedy interview is to send your Packet 3 and checklist back ASAP AND schedule the medical. We received our date about a week after my fiance had his medical, which was about three weeks after we sent in our Packet 3. I know the medical isn't supposed to determine when you get your interview, but I am suspicious that it is. Good luck

Please add my Packet 4 Received date as 1/25/06. Thanks

When I emailed the embassy asking about an interview date, I did mention that my husband had had his medical, that he had all of the necessary paperwork ready with copies, and was able to travel to London on short notice. We received a date a few days later.

London Waivers (for anyone filing I-601 and/or I-212 following denial in London)
London Graduates (for successful petitioners/beneficiaries post-London: AOS, moving to America, and off-topic discussions)

So I wonder what happened with Carol today...

Thanks for the help everyone. I wasn't aware you could schedule your own medical, I thought for some reason they gave you that date! So, I'm correct in thinking James can call tommorow and schedule his medical as soon as possible and once we have sent Packet 3 in we should email London and tell them everything is sent and we're ready for an interview ASAP? I mean, it isn't a massive rush, he doesn't plan on leaving England until about a month before the wedding, so the end of April. Seeing as people are getting interviews about the beginning of March now I think we should be ok going the non-emailing and rushing London (if that's possible!) route but I think we might email them anyways just to be safe.

Yes.

You can send back the consular visa forms whenever you want, but London will not schedule an interview until they receive IV-15 (the checklist). Which means that you can send back everything at once (Ewen did this) or you can send back the visa forms whenever you have them filled out, and the checklist whenever you have everything squared away.



If he's planning on leaving England at the end of April, I would get on all of this NOW. London is still lagging a good month or two between paperwork receipt and interview dates--Ewen waited three months between sending back his paperwork and having his interview. The folks who are e-mailing aren't notifying London of anything--they're just checking on the progress of their applications and whether or not they have a date scheduled yet.

Just adding on to the comments that say that if you want a late March/early April interview, you need to get that packet sent back NOW. If you look at the timelines carefully, you can see that there's a huge amount of variability in the dates, and you just can't count on anything. I'd guess that if you sent it right now, and had the medical already completed, you'd be lucky to get a date at the end of March... and equally likely to not have it be until later. Emailing is unlikely to do you any good right now, other that to confirm that the forms are in the system.

(And it can take up to 40 days to get a police report, if he hasn't done that.)

Nina

He has done the police report. We will definitely get on it ASAP, thanks for all the replies!

Right, I've officially decided I'm gonna become annoying on the London thread because I have so many questions! I'm in panic mode but I'm sure everyone else has felt the same way as well....

I was just wondering about clarification on packet 3 and what forms to send and when. Pax made it sound like they don't have to all be sent at once and the IV-15 is the crucial one. He has his police report and birth cert and all of the extra forms needed besides the ones sent to you in Packet 3. So, does this mean he can go ahead and send in the checklist and then send in the rest of the forms when he finishes them? He's having trouble getting all the dates for employment for last 10 yrs and such but I don't want there to be any extra delay on scheduling the interview. He is also going to call tommorow and schedule his medical. I sure wish there was a guide that is as good as the intial K1 guide for this step in the process! Sorry if I get annoying

The IV-15 is the one that tells the embassy that you are ready for your interview and that you have the I-134 ready etc.
I sent back my pack 3 including the IV-15 before I had the medical as the wait for interviews at london can take a while to come through.

Good luck

Donna

O ok. This would probably be easier on my end if I could actually see it and I'm sure I'd know better what to do. We just want to go ahead and schedule the medical just in case theres a delay, I'm sure he will have sent in packet 3 before the medical actually happens.

Hi all

Just wondering what happens after the medical...... I had mine a couple of weeks ago and I never heard anything back. Should I have? Should they send me something to take to the embassy etc?

Thanks for any advice!

Samantha

The xrays and info is sent directly to the embassy, thats what Knightbridge dr's told me.

You should have been given a copy of your vaccination history by them though.

Oh and one more thing.... was I supposed to send 2 passport pics back with my packet 3 or do I just need them to take to the embassy???

Thanks again!

Samantha

Don't send any pics back with the packet 3, they need to be brought on your interview date. There are also two documents that you aren't supposed to sign until you are at the embassy. Please see below link for more info.

Miranda, you need to send back all of the paperwork in order for them to schedule your interview. This includes the DS230, DS 156, DS 156K and DS 157 AND the checklist. Even if you don't have the police report back or you don't have the I-134 affadavit ready, just check off everything as if you do, since you WILL have it all by the time the interview arrives. Otherwise there will be a huge delay in getting your date.

Sending back the checklist alone does nothing, they need ALL of the other Packet 3 forms in order to enter the new case file information into their system. And consequently if they have all those papers and no checklist, they still won't schedule you since they assume you aren't ready. You need to send it ALL. Here is the London Embassy site which can give you more info on this all.

http://www.usembassy.org.uk/cons_new/visa/...processing.html

Then once packet 3 and checklist are in (you need to send this recorded delivery with signature request) you can wait about 2 weeks before you very nicely start emailing the embassy to see if they have all your forms and if they can give you a date.

Good luck!

Estella, I sent mine standard delivery,,,you think it'll matter?!
CRAP!

Thank you!!!

No it doesn't. I just liked having the peace of mind when i tracked it, that I saw it was delivered and signed for.

But when the embassy tells you that your packet has been received, or when they schedule your interview, you will have that same peace of mind. I just send ALL correspondence priority with tracking and will continue to do so through AOS, so that I have proof it went where it needed to go. You'll be fine!

Ah, Thanks a lot, I've lived and learned!
Will certainly do so in future..

Good luck to Gwen, Janice and Rich tomorrow!!!

The picture thing... after much debate, since some things (including the instructions on Visa Journey) seem to indicate yes and others say no, and since ONE of the three pics listed on the checklist goes to the medical and so forth... anyway, we did attach pictures to the I-134. I keep wondering if we should take another set of pics as a backup, or whether it's ok to assume that it's fine... and then I wonder if I should ask London... and then I wonder if I think far too much about this stuff.

Any opinions? Did anyone attach pics, and if so, did that come out ok?

Nina

Best of luck to all of you tomorrow

I sent my forms off in the regular mail, and they arrived fine. If that's any help.
