London Waivers (for anyone filing I-601 and/or I-212 following denial in London)
London Graduates (for successful petitioners/beneficiaries post-London: AOS, moving to America, and off-topic discussions)


I cleared out the list from 2005...jpkeswim's waiver was denied and I don't think we'll ever hear back from that CR-1.

PLEASE, everyone, swing by the Waivers thread and say hi to Mary and Tom. They have a letter from USCIS and they'll be opening it when Tom gets home from work. Hope this is good news for them!

United KingdomLondon Interviews 2006 (NEW)
Miranda, it's not unusual for London to be slow with opening mail. If you sent packet 3 via recorded delivery and you know it was signed for, it's very unlikely that it's completely lost.

London was slower when Ewen and I were going through. We did indeed wait 12 full weeks between Ewen's returning packet 3 and his interview, and it was 8 weeks from when he sent back his packet until he even heard about a date.

Hi again Londoners! :)

Please swing by the Waivers thread if you have a minute and give Mary and Tom some good mojo. Their waiver's adjudication is taking a reeeeally long time, and Mary has to leave England soon... :(

Well, it's been a pretty good February so far in London! Congrats to all the recently-approved.

I think Mary and Tom may be close to getting an answer on their I-601. Mary's mostly posting in the Waivers thread these days (see the link in my signature), so if y'all have a chance, please swing by and give Mary and Tom some good mojo! Mary has to leave the UK on March 21st, so it would be awesome if they had an answer soon so Tom could go with her.

United KingdomUS Embassy in London Interview
our visa interview experience

we arrived nearly 5 hours too early (contingency contingency contingency lol)

spoke to a nice policeman well 5 of them at different times nice policemen with guns i might add

eventually we got online just before 10 am for our 10.30 appointment

we lined up against the barriers there was another line next to ours (the 10am ers)

they all went through then we were all moved over to where they were lined up

then our line starts to move the security guard he was the icing on the cake a big burly biker type guy in a uniform with a wacky sence of humour he really did help us feel a bit more at ease

so we show our passports and appointment letters(without them its no entry)

then we start making our way towards a portacabin,in there is the usual security measures you would expect at the airport

after you go through you then have to walk down to where you were lined up (but this time inside the fence)

down to the end then you walk the whole length of the building then back up half way on the otherside

enter in throught the doors at the top of the stairs up to a guy sat behind a desk,reshow your appointment letter he ticks your name off then directs you up the stairs to his right(your left)

once inside the door you will meat a lady who will ask you what visa you are applying for(you all should know this)i said erm erm shrugged my shoulders and she said ah immigrant lol

she pushes the button on the coresponding ticket machine and gives you a ticket
now this is the good or bad bit immigrants and dhs are the shorter lines(or were on our day)there were 5 in front of me

you sit and there are 4 screens with ticket numbers and window numbers and in turn each are called out

we were called up to window 14 about 45 mins after getting there nice man behind the glass

gave him our ticket then he goes off to get your packets and in turn asks for docs and copies did this twice for my son and me

they only asked for 1 photo which i thought was strange as they said you needed 2 each

he then gave me a courier sms form told us both to go back to where we were sitting to fill out name and address etc

about 20 mins later get called to window 15 by an american accented woman over the loud speaker (americans working in the embassy surely not lol)

her first words to me were "i hope you are having a nice day im just signing my life away"she was signing

our forms (obviously at this point i muttered so we are approved)she said we were she handed us back our original docs

then index finger scans were taken

she then directed us to the courier corner

now please please please do not try to go through the door marked no entry (which is where i thought she said to go lol)

the courier corner as i will call it from now on is right next to where you were given your ticket when you came in

pay the courier,get your receipt and gtfoot for lots of ciggies if you a smoker

good luck one and all

United KingdomCHECK YOUR VISA CAREFULLY

Any response to 'sex' for Crash at that point woulda been 'yes please!'


no lisa.. i'm the one who will be saying that over and over.. oops private thoughts getting out
crashandcariNot TellingEngland2006-05-15 22:04:00
United KingdomCHECK YOUR VISA CAREFULLY
unfortunately yea.. crash booked em as soon as he got home since we had researched and researched which flight was the cheapest so we knew what we were doing... only then did he really look at the visa. but then again... c'mon... would you really look at "sex" and think it was wrong??
crashandcariNot TellingEngland2006-05-15 14:29:00
United KingdomCHECK YOUR VISA CAREFULLY
As some of you have read about this on other forums... Crash had a horrible experience with the London Embassy making a ridiculous typo on his visa. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE all of you ... read your visas CAREFULLY to make sure there are no mistakes on it. Once the visa is brought back tomorrow it will have taken ONE WEEK for the Embassy to correct their stupid mistake. So as a bit of advice.. do not book tickets until you make sure the visa is 100% correct!

United KingdomAirfare from UK to US

Most of our flights have been directly with Delta. Usually there is only a 10-20 pound difference from the other "discount" sites, and when booking directly with them online you typically get an additional 1k sky miles, you will find this with most airlines if you book with them you can get free miles. I always search the bonus sections, because they sometimes give additonal free miles away if booking a ticket trans-atlantic, those miles add up fast when you do this. There is nothing like earning a free ticket and you have to weight out if the savings you get on discount flights will add up to the value of a freebie flight.

We have also often found if you travel on tues-thurs you can often get a better deal, just keep plugging in dates during your search.

We have I believe on one occasion booked with Orbitz.

During our search a month ago USAir was coming up with cheaper prices, but watch the layovers with them.

Just checked the list to see whats new... any word from Baileyj96?? Its been almost 2 weeks??



By the way... for everyone's information I just realized I should post this bit of info I got when I called DOS to see what was taking so long to correct the visa..

DOS said that as far as they were concerned the visa was issued on May 3, 2006. They had NO information that there were any errors on it at all. So I said.. what happens if it takes the Embassy 6 months to fix this problem (I know its a bit exaggerated but I was curious). The guy told me that if the original visa was NOT used by the end of the 6 months it would become invalid. And I said.. even if it was wrong and sent back? He said yes since they would have no way of knowing that it was ever incorrect. Nice huh?

So again.. everyone.. PLEASE check and recheck your visa for complete and total accuracy!!

Bailey is pending as a waiver had to be filed, Becca did post but the list was never updated to say "PENDING" :yes:


oh ok.. thanks amanda... hope everything works out ok for them...

Quick question for all of you who have already gone for your interviews.. if you are still around:

Crash's interview is at 10:30 on Tuesday. If he gets there early, say around 9-9:30 should he get on the queue? What will happen if he on the queue and gets to the front of it BEFORE his appointment time at 10:30? Will he be allowed into the Embassy for his interview? Or will they make him wait until the appointed time of 10:30?

We wouldn't want him waiting on line for over an hour if they won't take him until his "time". The Package 4 stuff he got said "You will not be admitted more than 30 minutes prior to the time shown". So what time should he get on line?

Thanks as always..

Crash and Cari

United KingdomLondon Interviews 2006 (NEW)

Cari - I don't think the interview questions are much different, but you can watch for Euro's interview account, which is upcoming this Friday 4/29. As for Jr., I'm sure he will be with his dad. The interviews are done at what look likes a bank tellers window - it's not a private office situation with closed doors.


oh really?? dont think we ever caught that info before.. i know we probably have nothing to be nervous about but can't help it.. and yea i know Amanda's interview is Friday... so pysched for her !!!
