    Dearest Soloenta,
    I logged in last week as saw what happened at the interview... ever since i've been trying to think of the words to say to you. Unfortunately, I have failed because I can't think of any words for the situation that you are facing. I am just so sorry.
    Keep on fighting, sweetheart. I will be thinking of you.

    Hahaha... this is so cute! I'm not a good flyer, I never have been but since having my daughter i'm even worse (as I only ever fly now with her).
    I was so nervous for the interview and wondered if I would end up passing out. I suppose it's almost more nerve racking if you're not there and have no control over the situation..... but you deserve some good luck. I will be thinking of you and keeping my fingers crossed.
    So so happy to see this!!!

    My visa is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow.... I just booked flights. I get to see my husband on Feb 22 (as long as I survive the flight).

    Happy to report that I had my IR1 interview today and was approved I say interview, it wasn't really, just asked what I do and what my husband does and handed back my civil docs. I was told during our conversation "well, you're approved again, so you're now an LPR again... get citizenship this time". I almost missed the "you're approved part" and almost asked her to repeat it just for it to feel real. Haha. Overall, it was a pleasant experience and everyone was super friendly.
    My 5 year old was hiding between my legs during the interview and because she couldn't hear what was being said she was worried it was denied and almost started to cry -- I told her they said yes and she called her dad straight away and then proceeded to run around in circles.

    Thank youuuuu!! I was so nervous it would be denied. My after-the-stress panic set in this morning on the school run when it hit me that this is my daughter's last week at her UK school (they are off school next week and we plan to travel the week after) -- I couldn't breathe. It's crazy how the mind works.
    I will be checking into the forum until you and DutchmansLady are also done with this nightmare.
    Now my stress is hoping flight prices don't go up too much while waiting for the visa to get here. I'm wondering whether to just take a gamble and book for the 25th, giving the Embassy a little over 2 weeks to get it to me. Hmmm.

    CEAC shows my visa has been "issued". It took around 24hours exactly since my approval yesterday.
    I'm hoping to book flights for 2 weeks from now.... though I might wait for a delivery tracking number and ETA before doing so.

    I was just checking in to see if you have an interview date.... So glad to see you do!!
    Mine is getting closer -- in fact, this time next week I will be in London with my daughter (wide awake) waiting for the interview at 9.30am the following morning. (I'm so nervous!)

    Congratulations!!
    Under the freedom of movement we have in the EU (or are supposed to have), you should be able to travel with some other form of ID? I thought it was just the UK in the EU that a passport is needed for entry. I could be completely wrong here, but it's worth researching.

    I just got my interview date (via email) - February 9th at 9.30am. I am in shock and so thankful as I was expecting a March interview. All things going well, this would mean a smoother school transition for my daughter

    Looks like London is still scheduling - I got CC on Jan 7th. Now I need to hurry up and go get my medical!!

    I'm not 100% sure about this - Soloenta may know more - but I haven't seen a February or March interview scheduled after Jan 2nd. I have been mentally preparing myself for a March interview but hoping for a February slot to still be open. DWheels said on the Interview thread they will likely open March scheduling at the end of January. Alas, you are not missing out on anything (other than relief) by them taking a few more days to review.
    Hang in there.

    Urghh... I really believe it will be any day now and will keep checking on here until you get it. Just remember that it's early morning there meaning that they have all day to review your checklist. Unfortunately, it appears that checklist reviews are going slower than original packages at the moment and I think I saw someone with a checklist date of Nov. 5 get CC the same day as me with a Nov. 13 scan date. Also, since my checklist was delivered on Nov. 7th, i'm wondering if the scan date they gave me of Nov. 13 wasn't accurate.
    I know it's no help but interview scheduling seems to have stopped after the first couple of days of January. Therefore, as long as you get CC in the next couple of weeks you will be good for the next interview scheduling (if I understand correctly).

    Good!
    They only had a sentence on a single letter to review for mine so i'm guessing the review took 10 seconds. Also, my Senator has been contacting them -- I don't think it made a difference though because I saw Nov. 12th Checklists getting CC yesterday.
    I was checking the online portal every 1-3 hours yesterday and took a screen shot when I saw the N/A to make sure I wasn't dreaming. I also logged out and in and had my mom check what I was seeing was real.

    Don't believe him, for two reasons: (1) I got the 3 N/As yesterday for sure and when I spoke to Joyce she said my documents were reviewed on the 7th (i.e. the same day i got 3 N/As). (2) someone on the other thread got 3 N/As yesterday, called and spoke to someone and they said that her documents weren't reviewed yet and to wait for 60 days -- she called back and got another rep who told her it was CC.
    Just hang in there and don't believe a word they say.
    I didn't see the N/As until 7pm UK time.
    Thinking of you!

    The excitement is too much. In fact, I ended up with a small panic attack last night after the news. That being said, anything can throw me into a panic attack.
    Thank you so much for all of your support.
    Today is your day! I have my fingers crossed for you
