Thank you all for this information.

My status has just been updated again, so I assume that it won't be long now until I receive an appointment date from the US Embassy.

Could you tell me how long you had to wait between getting your appointment and waiting to attend, just so that I get an idea. Is it true that the embassy notifies you a month before the date itself or has it been different in your experience?

Thanks!

Probably four weeks to hear from them.

Are you saying you never got the packet 3 letter saying your instructions are here? http://london.usembassy.gov/iv_15.html

There is more than that one page to read. Click on the links on the left concerning interview, fees, FAQ, etc. On the "visa forms" link find the last form IV-019 and read it for some interview info specific to K1.

Also read the embassy reviews found in the VJ menu bar for a play-by-play of many London interviews.

Thank you for the responses!

Nich-Nick I followed your link. I've already filled in and filed DS-230-Part 1. Does this mean that I shouldn't fill in the new online form DS-260?

I have another question. Regarding the visa processing payment, did you wait until you received your appointment date before you paid it? I have tried to make a payment in the past but I don't have an interview date to input into the 'add applicant section'.

Hello All,

I've been checking the status of my application at ceac.state.gov/ceac and it states that my application is ready.

I sent in all of the necessary forms, including the declaration form which notifies the embassy that I am ready for an interview, and my medical has been completed and forwarded to the embassy also. My application had been updated on the 30th August when I have sent everything in and they had received the medical results.

Does anyone have any idea as to how long it takes for the Embassy to contact you to give you the interview date at the London Embassy? What is strange is that I didn't receive, nor did my fiancee (the petitioner), any information from the Embassy regarding my instructions to prepare for the interview. I had to look up all of the details myself.

Thank you!
