London Embassy Question

[Bakemma 4]

So my fiance is going to his interview on Tuesday and his dad, who is disabled if that matters, will be with him. Is his father allowed to enter the embassy with him and wait in the waiting room, or will his father not be allowed to enter the embassy at all?

I think he can go in. My fiance was approved last week. Good luck!

You need to let them know ahead of time so he can be put on the list.

When I went there for my J1 visa appointments I remember there being a few stairs to get in so you may also want to ask about accessibility depending on his disability.

Good luck

Hmm I assumed he could not. Have they changed?

The online contact form has a place to add a US citizen spouse to the appointment. That also works for USC fiances. Other than that, it is usually only open to interpreters or caregivers...people required to assist the applicant.

He could always ask and explain the relation, why his father's presence is necessary for his interview, and the disability if he can't climb stairs, but it seems a little late to expect an answer on Monday. There is a half flight of stairs into the small reception area, and another half flight up to the interview level.

I know children that show up have been allowed, but they wouldn't make a kid stay unattended on the streets. Father might be more comfortable waiting it out in Starbucks.

In the DS160 they ask if someone come with us at the interview, they said we are allow to have 1 personn with us but we need to put his info before we submit the ds 160.

So I don't think he could.

People have been added after the DS-160 by using the contact form. They don't always answer the emails for several days is why I thought it may be too late for tomorrow's interview.
