So basically my medical appointment and getting the package of results has taken about 7 weeks And now my notice of action expires in a couple days. Completely my fault, I didn't think the medical would take that long but it is on me

 

The only thing I have left is to email my statement of readiness to the embassy and I'm good to go

 

Is it going to be a problem?

The embassy can extend it, if necessary.

There is no statement of readiness for London. Again, read your list of required documents from your embassy,  not what somebody on VJ tells you.

 

You don't have a timeline or profile. Are you in the right forum?

My petition expires tomorrow. My application is from Ireland to USA. 

 

I have sent off every form, including notice of readiness and have all my medical stuff. I'm just waiting to hear back for an interview

 

But the problem is my petition is going to run out before I get an interview. I've emailed the US embassy in Dublin because there's no option to call, but I'm not sure if they'll get back to me in time. If not at all because they said in an automated response they won't reply unless it's a certain subject

Most embassies will extend the NOA2 validity date automatically. Others do not. To ascertain if yours does, you were right to email the embassy. With them not responding you may want to inquiry in your sub-forum where others can help.

 

Here is a thread that had some discussion about the Embassy procedure there in Ireland.

A fiancé visa must he issued within four months from the date of approval of the fiancé petition by U8CIS (U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services). If your appointment is later, bring a signed and dated letter from your U.S. fiancé(e) stating that you both remain legally free to marry and that you intend to get married within 90 days of your arrival. The signature must be original; emails or copies are unacceptable.

 

9 FAM 41.81 N6.2 Validity of a K-1 Petition

(CT:VISA-2165; 08-21-2014)

An approved K-1 visa petition is valid for a period of four months from the date of USCIS action and may be revalidated by the consular officer any number of times for additional periods of four months from the date of revalidation, provided the officer concludes that the petitioner and the beneficiary remain legally free to marry and continue to intend to marry each other within 90 days after the beneficiary's admission into the United States.

Ah I'm in the wrong forum. Sorry :(

 

Should be in Ireland

Many of our answers are predicated on the information you supply in your profile. When we look at the left column and can't determine your timeline OR your Embassy it's hard for us to give you a factual answer. Our answers will sometimes be tailored to a specific Embassy hence the reason for you to complete your profile. If you look at the profile of others here, they have a flag for their country, so it makes it easy for us to reply as we can quickly determine their Embassy. The country that should be used is the country where the interview will take place.

 

So, if you could help yourself out and complete your profile that sure would help us out when we want to reply to your question with factual information.

 

Go to the top right of this page select your name (it's on the upper right-hand corner)>my profile>[below your picture on the right column] edit my profile. Scroll to the bottom and fill in "Immigration Info". There now we can better serve you.

 

Once you finish that then return and you will see a flag in your profile. Select it and see what wonderful information will open up for you.

 

Thanks

Don't worry about the petition expiring ..  most all of the embassies automatically extend the validity of the petition for up to one year.
