Does anybody know if London embassy is allowing people to schedule interview appointments for later in the summer? I’ve heard some other US embassies are allowing that. Our K1 visa is listed as “ready” status. Thank you!

Log in and try it. See if you find an appointment. If not, try again next week.

I was just able to schedule an interview appointment for July 6th (the soonest date available on the booking tool).

Yep! Also just saw some availability and booked an appointment for the 7th!

It also looks like medicals are still being done for the US.

Thanks for the update guys! We will try again tonight. Logged on at work and it just kept asking for us to create an account over and over but never got to next screen. Didn’t get the “case number not ready” error that would suggest we can’t schedule. Anybody experience anything similar?

 

Oh so Knightsbridge is open and still doing physicals for visa?

We were eventually able to figure out the website and were also able to book on July 6th! 

See ya there! (From a socially distanced distance! ;) )

Congratulations to both of you!

 

Out of interest, have either of you been asked to complete and bring a DS-5540 to your interviews? Curious to hear if the London US Embassy has now implemented this as part of the interview process.

Not sure. We never even got the Packet 3 letter because they had stopped sending out anything by mail at that point. Case was still listed as Ready though and appointment site worked for us. Hopefully if they want that form, they'll send out a communication prior to the interview.  Seems silly they'd want it for K1 since you have to show proof of income for the US partner and are presumed to be dependent on them because K1s can't work until 5+ months after AOS application submitted.

I've just booked my appointment with them. The reduced service translates to only offering appointments on Wednesday and Thursday.

Did you book an appointment soon or closer to the interview?

I booked it for closer to the interview, in mind June. That way if it gets issued, there’s until December to try and get a flight—depending on disruptions there. 
 

But I’m wondering if they’ll not run into issues in the mean time. What were you thinking?
