Our package 3 was signed for at the London Embasssy on October 23rd, over three weeks ago. We still haven't received our package 4 with an interview date. Should we be worried?

We've seen some other K3 applicant couples on here who say they sent the package 3 in around the same time as us or even later and they've already had their interview!

Is it worth ringing the Visa Helpline (09042-450-100), or is that a waste of time and money?

Any help/advice/encouragement gratefully received....

PS - The one thing that may be delaying us is that we previously lived in the Netherlands, which for some reason is one of the countries that the Embassy has to apply directly for my police record. Has anyone any experience of this and would it delay our application this much?

it took almost a month for my husband to get his packet from the embassy. So that is the best advice
i can give u at this time.

Best wishes to you both
