You know the story about the young man who arrives in London, it's raining so he goes for one pint in a great pub with great music and company, decent beer, a log fire? Well, gather round and I'll tell thee. The young man in question, his fiance, his sister and her fiancee go to the pub at 4pm, promising to leave by 6pm. Or rather, they say they're going to leave at 6pm but time slips away and they find it's 1am, they are all pretty drunk and have to get up at 6am for a rather important interview. Well, folks, that foolish young man was me.
And so it was, Mercedes and I arrived for the 9am interview at around 8.30am, took our place in the line, hung-over and on about 4 hours of sleep .... which is something I don't recommend. At 9.01am we made it into the embassy, got our ticket (Mercedes came into the Embassy with me) ... Welcome Ticket 5018. And we waited. And waited. And waited.
The waiting room was awash with people and while they were flying through t... read complete review

Had my interview today, very easy, just asked for my Birth Certificate, usc letter from employer and afvidavid.
Then called for the actual interview, asked how long ago we met, and whether I had been to the US and whether he had been here.
Then said congratulations you are approved.

My interview was scheduled for 9am and after a fraught journey into the city I only arrived at 8:45. I allowed 3 hours to get just 50 miles from my home to the embassy and I needed every minute. I strongly suggest you leave plenty of time to arrive as travel can go wrong!
On arrival there was a single queue on the North side of the building that then went behind some construction fencing as it turned south along the front of the embassy. While I stood there the security guard divided us up so those there for 9:30 appointments had to wait. She supplied us with clear plastic bags. One had to contain electronic items that could not be taken in (phones, mp3 players...laptops are a big no no!) and in the other went my belt, wallet, change, watch etc. You will get this bag back after security. Interestingly and contrary to what I have read here or on the US Embassy website they had no problem with my Fiancée coming in with me...in fact she was ready to go and wait it o... read complete review

 It was simple and to the point if you have all of your paperwork organized and ready. The one thing that does seem odd to me is that the information on the website for K-1 visa's and the information given from the consulate is not exactly accurate with what they want to see in the interview. Or even through out the process. At any rate! It's been approved and we're happy.

After trying desperately to get some sleep on Sunday night, I eventually gave it up at 3am and got out of bed. I felt awful, I had a lousy sore throat and blocked nose and felt so tired that walking was an effort, but despite all that, I was still sort of excited. I mean this was what i'd been waiting for!!
I chatted to Toby on the phone for an hour while I got dressed and ready and left my house a little after 5am to be at the train station and on my train by 6am. I was early! I got there at 5.30am and sat around as a guy who must have been around 60 years old decided to chat me up. It was so funny, he used the line 'Do you come here often?' He backed off when I told him exactly why I was going to London -but not until after he'd moved up three seats to sit right beside me and breach my personal space. He was close enough for me to see that he had hairs growing out of his ears! YUCK!
Anyway - I had a first class ticket on the train (not because i'm loaded... read complete review
