Hey guys,
 
Just received case #
NOA2 approved 10th of April
 
Good luck to everyone
 

Got my medical on the 12th of May and the interview on the 5th of June. Was the earliest I could do it. So excited now! 

Jamie is awesome I love talking to Jamie. He had empathy.
Piper and nick though.
just don’t believe in piper on whatever she says, I believe she has no clue... she burnt at least two of us. Nick was passive aggressive and I believe he has something for piper (I also have a vision of him having sandy hair and beard, you know hipstery kind. I don’t know why...)
 
jamie though, he has emphaty skills...

You will be fine!!  My SO had 2 visas denied!! First a business visa and then a travel visa and we were approved for our K1 last week!!  Just ALWAYS be honest and you will be OK I promise!

Yes!  You can schedule your medical at Knightsbridge.  They will just ask for your case number when making the appointment.  If NVC has your email address, you should be getting an email with your case number as well.  I just forwarded that to my fiancé who printed it out and took it with him to the appointment.  Alternatively, you can print a copy of your status on CEAC if you need to.  I’m pretty sure they just want something to show your case number on it.  Monday is a UK bank holiday, unfortunately, so call Knightsbridge on Tuesday to schedule your medical.  They open at 9am.  Surprisingly, when we scheduled my fiancé’s appointments, the Embassy actually had much sooner availability.  I called Knightsbridge everyday for a week asking about cancellations and we were eventually able to get an appointment 9 days sooner.  You might not be that fussed about getting a sooner date but, just so you know, it is possible.  
 
Yes, DS-160 can be completed now as well.  Some of the questions can be confusing and the page times out quickly so we printed out a blank copy of the questions and filled it out ahead of time.  Then we just went back and plugged in the answers.  Of course, this isn’t necessary but we found it helpful.  Alternatively, just keep saving as you go along so that you’re not stuck having to re-complete sections you’ve already done.  Sooo annoying.    Lol

Yayyyyy!!!  

Pretty girl! Thank you so much. Unfortunately, I still didn't receive my packet 3 from the embassy. It's been a month since my status were ready. So I decided to go ahead and tried if I can get an appointment for interview even without packet 3. The website let me pay for the MRV fee so I took June 7th as my interview date because MAY 2018 is already full. Ugh! Wasted a month waiting for packet 3. I'm gonna go ahead and attend my interview even without the appointment letter. Let's see if they'll throw me out. hehehe!

It can, as apparently on dhs website there is actually an explanation in wet signatures since 2018 and it says it’s ok. However I don’t know what people are usually doing these days. So it is up to you.

It really depends on the embassy. 
 
what I remember from my UK friends were (cause I followed vocal edge's case really closely)
 
You can reserve the medical, but for the exam you will need the mail (this will come when it says in transit - but also vocal edge and many other in June did just take the print from NVC site if their letter wasn't there yet.)
 
DS-160 can be done, it won't even ask for a case number. it asks for the petition receipt number (WAC number)

Is there anything we can do now that we have our case number? I know the interview can't be scheduled until it's sent but can we schedule his medical now that we have the case number? Mainly asking fellow UK filers....
I know, I know it's probably been discussed in previous just wanting to get confirmation.
 
and can the ds-160 be done now? I haven't even dabbled in that yet been waiting for the case number.

I just called the NVC and I am happy to say I have my case number guys....
NOA2-April 12th (paper)/13th (online)
NVC received-May 2nd
NVC case number assigned-May 4th
 
Hopefully it'll be at the embassy next week...
 
Good luck to everyone still waiting...your time is coming!

Congrats!!  Now you can schedule your interview!  

Yes, that’s the correct one.  Try again later if it’s saying your case is not yet ready to schedule.  It can take a bit for your status to update in the scheduling system.

i did try but it wouldnt let me.... is this the correct one i choose ?
Also Thanks !!! so close now!!
 

Congrats!!  Now you can schedule your interview!  

Hey all just got my case into transit and the email !!!!!!
is this the usual where they say they have done the interview for you ? im interviewing in london btw

Fiancé had his medical done today at Knightsbridge in London.  All good pending lab results.  Gosh it feels good to finally have that done!  It really is crazy to have waited all of this time and now everything seems to be flying by.  Interview is in just a few weeks and it’s all starting to feel so real.  To everyone still waiting for case numbers, interviews, etc: guys just hang in there!  I know this whole process has tested our will, our patience, and for some, even relationships.  But I promise, there is an end in sight.  Once that ball gets rolling, you’ll see how fast it all goes.  Before we know it, we will all finally be in the arms of the ones we love.  I’m sooo looking forward to that day.  For all of us.

Thanks! I really hope so. I'm going to call tonight and then tomorrow night. I know it could be next week but at least I know it's been received FINALLY!

Yayyyy!  Congratulations!  I’m so glad it’s finally arrived.  I bet you get your case number too this week.

I can’t wait for you to get your approval!! My moms progress is very very slow but it is progress. Still in the ICU but more responsive every day. I can’t wait for my dad to tell her the good news!!

I bet you guys are on cloud 9!  And that’s so awesome that he’ll be there in just a month!  Woohoo!  My fiancé had his medical today and his interview is in a few weeks.  We’re hoping he can be home by mid June!     I’m so ready for this whole process to be over already but being able to celebrate with everyone who finally crosses that finish line sure does make the constant waiting more bearable.  Btw, how is your mommy doing?  She’s been in my prayers.  I’m sure she’ll be excited by this news as well.
