Hi all,
 
Just here to remind everywhere to fill out a P85 form to get your income tax refund with HMRC when you move. I saw it mentioned here once but don’t see many people talking about it. You have to do it after you’ve left the UK, but it’s all online and really simple to do!
 
I did mine when I moved in late September. It took them a while to write to me (the letter just arrived today - over 2 months later) but I just found out I’m due a repayment £1249/ $1676!! They enclosed a cheque with the letter. That’ll help us recoup some of the costs of me moving here and will help with Christmas presents too.
 
DO NOT FORGET!! You could get a decent amount for just 5 minutes of your time.

I received P85 monies (££££.££) and later an inheritance cheque (££,£££.££) which would have been expensive to have my US bank process. (Lots of service fees by bank plus a less favorable exchange rate. Also bank service fees were a percentage of the amount, so the large cheque was quite a bite ). I mailed both cheques to Mum who paid them in to my UK bank. When I wanted to move money to the US, I used Transferwise. I still have the UK account 12 years later.

Just got back from my interview. I got APPROVED!! 
 
It was really quick, was in and out within 30 minutes and nobody else was there. CO was really friendly. He asked quite a few questions but it was more like general chit chat. He congratulated me on our anniversary today and told me to expect my passport back within 2 weeks.

I called my husband once I got out (at 05:30 his time 😂) and woke him up with the good news! I still can’t believe it’s finally happening and that I’ll be with my husband soon!

I just paid the IV fee online after getting my passport back. I didn't get a slip with details about how to pay the IV fee. I just went to https://my.uscis.gov/uscis-immigrant-fee, entered my A-Number (Registration Number on the visa) and DOS Case ID (IV Case Number on the visa) and followed the instructions on the site from there.
 
My flight is booked for September 25th to El Paso via Dallas FW, leaving from London Heathrow. If anyone else happens to be leaving from Heathrow that day drop me a message and we can rant about how stressful this process is while we wait for our flights 😂
 
I can barely believe I'm typing this, but after nearly two years since our NOA1, I can actually say WE'RE DONE with the IR1 process!
 
I honestly would've made a 100 more mistakes than I already did without the lovely, helpful and supportive members on this site 💙
Now I can relax for a few years before having to worry about naturalisation 😪🤣

I had mine 6 days before my interview. The medical team told me I could email the day before my interview to check if everything was submitted.
When I emailed the morning before they said it was in the final stages and not done, but that they’d try to push it through for me. Then they emailed again a few hours later to say it had been successfully submitted online.
I’d recommend emailing them to see if they can help get it done in time. I was emailing with a lady named Hannah V and she was really helpful.
Edit: Contact them through the email address on one of the sheets they give you. Message me and I can send you it 😊
