I had the interview today: Approved 

 

It was the simplest 'interview' i've ever had in my life. It was even more painless than the medical (excuse the pun) - and that was a breeze. I guess they really do just use the time and money to test out the 'strength' of these relationships. Seems pretty ridiculous.

For those in the UK, i'll write a full review on the UK portal tomorrow

 

 

Nice on @S*UK! Many congratulations to you both! Glad & reassuring to hear your experience with the UK system is smooth.

I just got a call from Shehide and her visa was approved! We did a video chat and I could tell the outcome by her smile without her saying a word. They asked her 3 questions during the interview. 1. When did you meet your fiance? 2. How did you meet? 3. When did he give you your engagement ring? She picks up her visa next Wednesday and her flight is scheduled for October 30th. Edona will get to go trick or treating for the first time! Maybe tonight I'll rediscover sleep... Assuming the euphoria subsides.

Congratulations!!!!

On a side note: did anyone take a peak at their chest x-ray when they got home after the interview? Im a bit of a science nerd, I found it pretty cool.

Nope, because it's on a CD and they seal the envelope and you are not supposed to open it?

They gave Shehide a separate copy of the xray for her personal files in Pristina.

You might want to check on that. The package is supposed to be sealed when it's delivered to the POE.

It didnt come with the package. I was just given it at the interview yesterday by itself. It is just in a CD case thing that is not sealable

Oh so there is another one somewhere? Im confused a little now. They just told me 'here is your xray' and handed me the CD in a wallet. I was under the impression I should take it to the POE along with the yellow packet (once it arrives)

I'd take it regardless. I would think the Xray results would also be contained in the CD.

You got that right, you might've required to hand that over with the visa package at the POE. My Embassy Officer heavy sealed the envelope for me, to prove no one messed with it, but it seems things are done differently there

You're not wrong. At the UK embassy, we get a copy of our x-ray on a CD. We can open it and view it. When you get your passport back, there will be another sealed package. That is the one we shouldn't open. To answer your previous question, I looked at mine as well. It was pretty cool.
