Yep, I agree :) Even now when I talk to people, I can see that they don't really grasp what I'm saying. Perhaps I'm just bad at explaining :P So many different stages of the process, the experiences and emotional whirlwind. I don't know about others, but where I am at the moment is strange. It's strange to be really happy to being close to being with Heather again, but still missing not being with her. At the same time, still being with family and friends, but starting to miss them. Even with the interview looming, the only thing I'm now focusing on is that super amazing hug that we have at the airport - the first hug that doesn't have a future goodbye hug, our first hug that signifies the start of our lives together :D


I totally feel the same!! I sometimes don't know what emotion to feel!!! No-one can truly understand how this all feels unless they've been thru it and that must be hard for them too as they want to. I'm trying to make the most of time with family but like you my thoughts are consumed with seeing Jason's crazy big smile as i walk thru that arrivals :)

How cool... imagine, if we all stay in touch, how many wedding anniversary cards we would get :rofl:


We're just waiting to hear from a marriage license agent who is conveniently on vacation in Italy at present!!! Once we confirm when she can see us everything will fall into place :)

Just got home from my medical appointment in London. Thanks to everyone posting here, it wasn't so bad because I knew what to expect. The doctors are lovely and really try to put you at your ease. So one less thing to do.... really hoping for an October interview so we can keep the date we've set for our wedding. I'm not assuming though - everything we've planned out this year has been flexible. Our wedding is fast becoming a 'moveable' feast :D

If all goes to plan though, we will share a wedding day with Michel and Kim :dance:


If all goes to plan with us we'll share a wedding weekend...we're aiming for the Sunday :dance:

Antsy can't begin to describe how I'm feeling... Interview date set, car rentals, hotel rooms all booked. Surgery is a go for Oct 18. Sweetie arrives here in Canada on Oct 17, Interview on Oct 22 then fly out as soon as we can pick up visa. I phoned Loomis who takes care of the pick ups with the consulate here and they said the consulate will expedite our delivery if we pay at the consulate once the visa has been approved. Consulate replied to my email and said "we will discuss it at your appointment"

Oh and did I mention my sweetie got so excited when we got our NOA2 he mailed out the invitations? Our wedding date was going to be Oct 28. It's going to be very close but not sure how much can be done once we arrive there on Oct 25-26..

:bonk: :rofl: :bonk: :rofl: :bonk: :rofl: :bonk:

WOW!!! I'm so glad he can be there for your surgery, I know how much that means. Jason had surgery in August and it was awful not being able to be there at the hospital and then to care for him :cry: didn't feel right that his mother had to care for him...it should have been me!!! Sorry, rant over :rofl:

Hope you can remain composed until then!!!

Can it only be paid by check? I was hoping to put it on a CC since at this point I have no idea how I'm going to save $1000 with all the other stuff going on!! Posted Image


It's the only payment method mentioned in the instructions http://www.uscis.gov.../i-485instr.pdf It's a killer that you have to pay that just after getting married...crazy!!! :wacko: Writing a check for $1000 is what everyone wants to do on return from their honeymoon right!!!

Is anyone getting super antsy, now that we are all so close, I can barely contain myself. I just CAN'T WAIT!!!! Posted Image


YES!!!!! We have to wait to hear back from someone and can't really book anything until that piece of the puzzle falls into place and it's like AAAAHHHHHH I just want to book already!!!!!

Well fellow Feb filers finally after 7 months one day we got approved. Its hard to believe its here. Thanks to all who pulled for us. Now the next hurdle, Warsaw Embassy changed the rules and someone must go to Poland and pay in cash at a Polish bank the visa fee to get a interview date. Tanya is trying to find someone who goes Belarus-Poland often that will help with this. If not she has to get a visa to enter Poland which takes about 3 weeks then a 12 hour train ride over night and 12 hours back. Then a new visa to reenter Poland for the interview. Its a lot of expense for something other counties can pay online.Our American Government at its best :wacko:


YAY congrats on the approval :dance: It's awful that you have those hurdles to face but just keep remembering that it will all be worth it in the end and your marriage will be a real testimony of faith and endurance thru trials :thumbs: Praying all goes well for you.

Congrats Michel and Kim for the interview, and congrats dodo&rooma for the approval (finally!). And I agree with SLMcT, use the example forms up top for all those DS forms. They are extremely useful.

I'm thinking I should start looking at some of the AOS and EAD forms. I know that's coming up in the next few months. I think Rob will be coming in at the end of October or early November. Holy cow, I can't believe Rob will be here in a month! It's just starting to sink in!


:rofl: I had coffee with a friend this afternoon and was like...Anne...i'm going to be married this time in 7 weeks!!!!! Don't have an actual date yet but it will be by then :dance: We have started looking at all the AOS and EAD forms...if you send them together you don't pay the EAD fee. Another affidavit is needed...I-864 this time! I'm trying to get my head round it all...and the SSN and driving license and change of name on my UK passport!!!!! :joy:

Got our interview date today: Oct 29. :D :)

One month to wait!

I am trying to fill out form DS 156. Some questions I don't know the appropriate answer that should be done by my fiancee'(under K1 category):

Question 26 which is asking :"How Long Do You Intend To Stay in The U.S.?"

Thank you.


I put:
Q26 - PERMANENTLY

K-1 Fiance(e) Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsAny February 2012 filers?

Yep, I think I will. I can't contemplate not being approved. As far as I know the interview is to judge you're a decent person, you have a valid relationship and there is financial support. There's not one of those that concern me really. If I was a horrible person, Heather wouldn't be with me. We talk every day on the phone, almost every day on skype as well. Then there's plenty of emails too. With that and the size of our folder of evidence too, the relationship will be proved. For financial, we have Heather and her father for extra security. So we should be fine - That's not to say I'm not super nervous and worried, but I'm going to go for it and book the flight when I know if I'm booking the 12th or 13th :)


Yeah I feel exactly the same...we're totally legit and I about need an extra baggage allowance flying down to London for my 'folder'!!! :rofl: I think it's safe enough to allow a week for the passport to make its merry way back to me :thumbs:

Yay! :) I feel a lot better now that I can hold that letter in my hand! Only a few waits left, for the day, for getting into the embassy, for being called up, for the passport/visa to be delivered, then the flight :)

I'll know this weekend when I'll be booking the flight for, it'll be 12th or 13th October :D


So you're going for booking the flight before your interview? We want to book my flight and also our flights and wedding...I mean you have to trust and have faith that it will all go ok but there's still that nervous feeling!!! Not made the final decision on just how much to book but think we'll just go for it :rofl:

We were aiming for an October 6th wedding, I did say this in my covering letter, now I think it will be October 27th. So I will probably be there for a couple of weeks getting settled in and sorting out our IT setup and doing little bits in the apartment - it also gives us time to go out shopping for a sofa, the main missing piece in the apartment :)


It's all so exciting!!! :dance: We're planning a wee family trip to London for 2 nights for my interview since I have to fly down and at least stay the night before my interview...the joys of being Scottish!!!!! We're thinking my nephew can be out of school for 3 days since he's only in P1 and we can make the trip educational!!!!!

Well when I spoke to DOS yesterday, they gave us an interview date and time. I spoke to Heather, to let her know, much excitement and happiness. Although we've both read so many things we didn't want to count our chickens, so wanted to wait for the letter. I spoke to the embassy this morning and they confirmed the interview and said the letter was sent out yesterday :D

Really happy right now, but it's difficult at work. My friend (and best man for our May wedding) is about to have a couple of weeks off when his girlfriend gives birth to their first baby :) Which could also be the same time that I'm jumping on a plane. Many discussions to be had, but I'm hoping to fly out to Heather on October 12th :D

Oh yes, interview date is October 4th! Excited and nervous, after all this time in this process I don't want to stuff up the interview! I know it should be straight forward, but it means so much that the nerves are jangling :P


WOW that's AWESOME!!! So quick! I have no idea how they assign the dates but I trust that they are right for each individual! I have to admit I get a bit of a "that's not fair" feeling when people get it way earlier than me but I KNOW that Nov 1st is perfect for us...with realizing the mid 2 weeks in Nov would be ideal for Jason to be off work, any earlier an interview would add complications and the temptation for me to go over earlier and we don't want to stay together before going to get married. This way it will just be go go go!!!!! God knew the perfect day for us :dance:

Sorry, I've been a little absent over the last few days while my love has been here with me!
Yesterday we had our Jack and Jill shower and it was SO amazing!! Everyone had such a great time!

Also, yesterday, while I was getting my hair done for the party, I also received Packet 4 in an email!! WOOHOO! Quicker than I was expecting! Unfortunately, my photos were not acceptable, because of the dark colour of the background, so I'm going to take some new ones today and hopefully send them off today as well. Then I can book my interview :D

Yeah, it seems like everyone gets a different story when you call the DOS. I'm really still hoping Rob has an October interview too. Our original wedding date was October 20th, and I was kinda hoping he'd be here so we can still do something special that day.


Only positive we have been able to draw from things taking so long is Jason building up more leave!!! We're now hoping to be interviewed etc in time to run off for our 'weddingmoon' the second 2 weeks in November and take advantage of 2 federal holidays meaning only 8 days leave!!

Yay, awesome news. Glad to see your on to the next waiting period :P :) So what's the difference between the DOS and embassy?


Honestly...I have NO idea!!!!! It's the Department of State Visa Information line on 202-663-1225 and if you press 1 to get the options and then 0 to speak to an advisor they seem to be able to access your case. It was them who told me first about my medical being received...then the embassy confirmed that for me the next day! I have a MagicJack so I get free calls to US numbers so it works for me!

Thank you. Yes I was a bit perplexed with the 9 weeks, so really happy the paperwork is done. 3 weeks for an interview date? Does it take that long to check the diary? Again, I'm hoping that's just the maximum wait and I actually hear early next week or earlier :) I'll keep everyone posted though on here :)


I just called the DOS and was told our forms have all been received and we're now eligible for interview but that a date has not been set yet! She seemed a bit reluctant to give out information so I didn't press her with any questions on timing...i'll save them for the embassy!!! It's free for me to call the DOS so i'm calling them and when I get some positive news I follow it up with an expensive call to the embassy the next day for more info!!!

So it took them just over a week to process my paperwork(packet 3) for those of you going through the US Embassy here.

I'm kinda looking for a new challenge... I've been a middle leader for 12 years so I'm thinking I might look for a post in management but this is all wishful thinking. Whilst I would go crazy without work, I think at the end of the day I might take what I can get and be grateful :D

Massive congratulations!!! That has become the goal for me and just can't see my life beyond it!!

I was pretty good at running numbers on a daily basis but, with a return to school and an NOA2 so the next part to prepare, there suddenly aren't enough hours in the day. I'm thinking of all of you who haven't yet had your approval - February is nearing completion so it just has to come soon for you. I hope so.

For everyone else at various stages of completion, let's hope things go smoothly for all of us and we achieve our end goal very soon. I just want to get married. Would like very much to be able to set a wedding date - I have 2 grown up kids who are waiting to make arrangements to fly out, a sister who is waiting to book leave, a wedding dress that arrived today, a headteacher who is desperately trying to find a replacement for me so that I don't have to serve my 3 months' notice and various other things to attend to... not least of which is an impending OFSTED inspection... Please God let me leave before OFSTED get here :D


What do you teach? Are you planning to teach in the US? I am a primary teacher in Scotland, altho just been on the supply list the past few years while i've been in and out the country!! It's the obvious option to pursue but i'm kinda up for a change!! :lol:

Wow, I can't even imagine... you guys really put things in perspective!!
Coming from Canada, I'm basically keeping ALL my stuff, and just loading it in a van/uhaul. Anything that doesn't fit, my parents will stash at their house for me and maybe bring it down to me in future drives to Florida, if I need it... or just hold it. I'm probably going to leave most of my winter clothes at their house, for future visits. I want to bring some of my furniture (dresser / nightstand / kitchen table / shelving maybe) down, because my dad built it for me, so if it doesn't all fit, they'll just bring it down later.

I'm not hugely attached to "stuff" and would definitely give it up if I needed to... but it's so hard to picture leaving home with just two luggages!


Yep...i'll leave a few things here that my parents can bring whenever they get to visit also. I now wish i'd thought of selling all my camping stuff a few months ago :bonk:

:) You son asks the right questions ;)

I'm almost there with selling or dumping my things. It's weird to think that when I go to the airport, all I have (aside from my fiancee) will be in 2 cases a rucksack and a laptop bag. Granted Heather took a case back when she left and I've left some little bits on my last visit. Saying that though, Heather has moved into our apartment now, so I may only have room for 2 hangers and a spot for a pair of shoes left in the wardrobes ;) :rofl:


If you're lucky!!! I'm planning on selling more valuable things but then taking all the left overs to a car boot sale!!! Makes you really think about what IS valuable and what you treasure in life! :rofl: i'm the same tho...Jason took some stuff when he was here in May and July and i have things i have left but yeah i'll be packing my life into 2 suitcases...my cabin luggage will be my wedding dress :dance: It's going to be a crazy weird day...saying goodbye to family at the airport will be emotional but i'll also be uber excited with my wedding dress in hand knowing i'm just hours away from Jason! :luv:

That really is harsh after the NOA2 wait! We're hearing 6 weeks for UK plus 3 to the actual interview - It really better not be.


Yeah I called the embassy at lunch time to check if my medical report had been logged and was told to get back in touch if I hadn't heard from them in 5 weeks :wow: I called again at 4.55 just to check if they'd done any logging this afternoon and were able to give me a positive push into the weekend...still nothing but the funny thing is I got the same guy on the phone!!!!! He was probably thinking..."Woman, I said wait 5 weeks...not 5 hours!!!" :rofl:
