Hey all,

As the title says, i've just had my interview and my visa was approved!!

Just thought id post it as a heads up to everyone who used the California Service Centre at/or around the same time I did (Aug 2010)

And for those of you who have just started, you may not want to look, but it took 222 days from the day i first sent off the forms.

Thanks to everyone i've bugged on here constantly along the way, and a huge shout out to Nich-Nick for especially being a massive help, i've lost count of how many times they have answered one of my questions. Any UK K1ers check out their online guide NOW! http://bit.ly/gmbgde

RIGHT ON!!! CONGRADS!!
