Hi everyone,

We finally received our NAO2 last week!! How long does it take (roughly) to get an interview date (London embassy) and is there anything I need to do in the meantime?

Congrats to those who have their visas!

You can start phoning NVC about 2 weeks after NOA2 to get your case number, and once you have that you can phone Knightsbridge to make a medical appointment. Then just fill out your DS-160 and Notification of Readiness and you're good to book your interview! You can book your interview about 24 hours after your case goes to "In Transit" here:

https://ceac.state.gov/CEACStatTracker/Status.aspx

I got an interview roughly 8 weeks after my NOA2, after you book it if you keep checking the website earlier interview dates tend to show up.

603-334-0700 is the number for NVC. :) I think you need the foreign fiance's name and date of birth, and the case number on your NOA1 when you call.

Nah you don't have to wait for packet 3, it's basically a sheet of paper with a link to the embassy site here:

https://uk.usembassy.gov/visas/fiancee-2/

That link gives you a step by step of what to do and what order to do it in. It also has links to all the forms so you should be set with that! :thumbs:

If it won't let you book the interview just try again every day until it does. It just needs to be at Ready on the ceac website by the time you interview which it likely will be given the wait for one.

Hi, guys we had our interview yesterday September 21 at 7:40am not a very good experience I'm glad that I was there wit my fiancé .!! They asked like 25 to 30 questions I will put all of them as soon as si get the time to help others to see and compare experiences.!!! I was losing my hope but I decide to take over the interview questions as the petitioner and fight for our rights .!!!

WE GOT OUR VISA APROVED .!! Guys if you applied for a tourist visa before get ready they will pull out everything to compete the new application make sure you have a valid answer .!!

I'm glad that we got the visa approved but believe me it was a hard interview.!!

Hope everything works different for everybody here.!

Hello all. Is it required that you bring/wear the engagement ring at the interview? I have pictures of it, but I don't want to travel with it if not necessary. Thank you for your response.

I just sent an email to NVC to report the clinic medical center of Abidan. The doctor have asked to my fiancé to naked herself before to make the check up. He open her legs and viewed her private.

The guy for chest x-Ray forced her to stay only with her underwear to go through the process. And at this end he made indecent proposal to her.

I swear God I won't miss these doctors. It was just sexual harassment and porn activities.

I will report them on Monday at the embassy.

Non sense doctors.

They will feel my anger.

Jesus Christ is Lord.
