I just wanted to let the board know that we heard from the London
Embassy on email this morning and they gave us a November 4th Interview
date. My darling called and told me the good news this morning. Through
my tears of joy and sleepy eyes I could finally see the light at the end
of the tunnel.



Although our processing time at Vermont has been fairly swift in
relation to the other Service centers, we have been apart since March.
David pointed out this morning, that we got engaged seven months ago to
the day. What a wonderful gift. I am filed with a new hope and beaming
from ear to ear.



I've never seen any of your faces and wouldn't know you if I bumped into
on the street, but wanted to thank this board for the advice and
experiences shared. I guess me sending the forms without his signatures
did not make a difference. And I guess me putting n/a instead of none
did not make a difference. What did make a difference was the calming
effect that being around people going through the same process had on
me. There's something different about explaing it to friends, family and
co-workers and talking about it with other people who are living through
the pain of separation, the anxiety of the wait and the absolute elation
of taking each step closer to being together.

Isn't it a wonderful feeling?! :D:D



I also went thru Vermont and had my interview and medical in London - it
was a breeze, there is nothing to worry about. I had a great day, met
some great people and had my visa in hand at 1pm! :D



I don't know whether you are the UK or USC, but just ensure that
everything they ask for is organised in a folder with document originals
and copies, etc. etc., ready to take to the medical and interview, then
both of you RELAX :cool: If you want to put your minds at rest further,
do a search (search Titles only) on this Forum for London K1 Interview
Experience.



Not much longer now and you'll be together again, and just in time for
the holidays, it's the best! :D



Good luck to you both :)



PS. Whereabouts in the USA are you?

Girlyflyer-



that's what I call great news! Good to know that you will be together
soooo soon! Guess this will be the greatest Thanksgiving ever ;)



Btw- are you sure you are on cloud nine??? If yes- we would have bumped
into each other already :D!



Fingers crossed for the interview! And: *happy flying*!!!



Rebecca.

experiences.

We're going the JFK route too, so if all goes well he should be here the
night of the 4th. And I'll just drive up and handcuff him to my wrist
when he walks through the customs doors!! heehee

Congratualtions! Please let us all know what David's experiences were
at the London medical and interview when you get the chance. I doubt
you or he will have much time to right away, but I love reading the
success stories coming from the London embassy. Just kind of makes the
wait for the silly police report not as tough. :)

No we haven't heard yet, waiting patiently! I asked Steve to check his
mail and he bonked me on the head because it was midnight :P Can't
think straight anymore :)



I'll let you know!! I feel like we were so close during this process,
it was nice to have someone like you to keep me strong :) Thanks! And
congrats again :)

Wonderful News ...I Love to hear of Approvals :)
Can you let me know the timescale from when you were approved to getting
your date in London for Interview ? I am gonna go through London and it
would give me an idea of timeframe ...I'm thinking maybe it would take
about 4 weeks from the time of approval ????
Any help appreciated :)

there !
