Check out our NOA2-->interview thread; we have a list of people waiting. It looks like you'll end up getting signed up in January for an interview date, the way things are trending if they didn't give you one for this cycle. What day did London log your papers into their system? Usually it takes 1-2 weeks from the date they get it.

My fiance sent the papers, November 17th, they signed for them November 20th lol then we just got logged in today or yesterday. So I've been like counting the days! I know thats crazy with this process but I can't help it. Thanks for your responses though! Its nice to vent to someone who understands!

Oh man, yeah, lol, sorry, but you're just in the beginning according to them of waiting. First week of January should be our time to get some news! Enjoy Christmas I guess? and dream about next year when we'll all (Heaven not forbid) be with our significant others :)

Dunno? Go to the embassy site I guess. The tube system in London is fabulous and you can virtually anywhere using that. And it's soooo much cleaner than the ####### we have in NYC and the DC one is only clean because it's illegal to eat/drink on it.

24 Grosvenor Square

London, W1A 2LQ

There is a link above that is labeled "Embassy Info" If you click on that it will allow you to select according to country and provide you with all things embassy related.

Amazing that you got the interview changed! Good luck & have a great trip!

I believe our interview date was given to DOS on Dec 7th. Before that it was Nov 13th, then Oct 13th that people were given dates. Up until that point it had been pretty random. Now they seem to be on the once a month kick. :(

Our VisaJourney started July 2009 when I mailed the 129-F

Fiance here February 2010, married 10 days later

GC received in the mail 10-Jun-2010

Able to apply to remove conditions 12-Feb-2012

Thanks. This may sound crazy but I thought I read something in one of the other posts that one of the embassy buildings was sold so I got confused on where the interviews were. I may have been drinking heavily that day. Or had a strange dream not unlike the one last night where I was a female 007 type secret agent. Note: did not drink heavily last night. :)

It is being sold, but they haven't moved yet.

Did you have a British accent in your dream? :unsure::P

lol I hope so because that would make it more legit of a dream.

Was more of a silent film, mostly action. Kicking a lot of butts. :) Wish I had a cool accent.
