    Hi,
    I took mine against my white door and used an app to size & print at home to submit visa application. Since they approved it, I took the same to interview. It was scanned & given back to me with no problem. 
    Goodluck

    Hey guys,
    A Note.... Remember to check your USCIS status updates everyday after you arrive in the USA. My permanent resident card was sent to me 2 wks after arrival on 12th Feb & returned to USCIS because of, I guess a postal glitch. I only found out when I logged into USCIS today, got the status update & USPS tracker. Had I been checking i could have rescheduled a next day delivery or pick it up myself. I just didn't expect it so soon.
    I now had to put in a request to USCIS to have it resent to me.
     
    So keep checking. They are processing really quickly.

    Hi, on arrival a week ago, I was advised at POE to expect my SS details within 3 weeks. If I do not receive it, to visit the nearest SS office to check/apply. So fingers cross, it'll be here soon. Good luck

    Hey Guys
    Arrived 12th February 2021.
    I made it to Atlanta GA safely to be with my hubby. Super smooth airport process and interview.... Just to confirm address for green card, reachable telephone number, husband's name, to explain that the stamp affixed in passport is valid for 1 year and can be used as ID for driving licence, job etc and briefly about residence expectations. Then Welcome to the USA! Now to enjoying a new Adventure.
     
    Good luck to all waiting for interviews. It's all worth it!

    Hi,
    Every case is different but my interview was in December. Interview was about 10mins with 3 questions & approval: Where we met, spouse' address and when do I wish to leave London?
    The entire process from arrival at embassy to completion was 40 mins.
    My passport was ready for collection from courier 3 days later.
     
    Goodluck x

    Passport and visa services are permitted to stay open in Tier 4 - see https://www.gov.uk/guidance/tier-4-stay-at-home - under the section titled 'Businesses and venues which can remain open' then the 'Public Services' section - and accessing critical public services within Tier 4 is referenced as an 'essential activity' and a reasonable excuse to leave home. Travelling into a Tier 4 area is a little vague stating 'reasons such as...' and then just quoting 4 examples of acceptable travel into Tier 4, but I'd certainly argue for myself that it's essential travel if the opportunity arises. I would guess there will be some kind of internal risk assessment by the US London Embassy done very soon. Anxious times for everyone. Hoping and praying that interviews will continue.

    Hey y'all. Never thought I'd be able to use wifi on a plane!
     
    I'll and in LAX in two and a half hours, give or take. I can't express my excitement, relief and exhaustion now that all of this is finally coming to a close for realJust wanted to say another quick thank you. I can only imagine how awful this process would have been without you guys.
     
    I know y'all just got some bad news about Christmas today and that absolutely sucks. But my fingers are crossed that processing remains normal with visa processing and everything still turns around fast. Stay safe everyone.

    Checked in at Embassy 30 minutes before my 11:30 appointment time this morning and spent 40 minutes in total there. Most of the time spent waiting. Interview itself was 10 minutes.
    3 questions:
    Where did you meet your husband?Where does he live?
    When are you hoping to go to the USA?
     
    They were all super friendly and helped me feel relaxed.
    After he said, "I will approve you today""
    I heard nothing else he said lol!
    I was just relieved the process was over!

    I interviewed yesterday and I did ask while I was having biometrics about what will happen in the event of London tier3 looming. I was told that it's unlikely that anything would change from their operation now because they were operating at lowest capacity already. I observed only 2 in office, 1 for docs & biometrics and 1 window for interview. So very very quiet there. I guess they too may be waiting on further guidance.
