CR-1 interview on Tuesday, 28th at 0830hrs. Should I get there stupid early? Also, anyone know a cheap way to get train tickets, I'm looking at 60 quid return from Colchester!

I always find the National Rail website best. Cause they cross-reference all the rail companies.

Oh no..he hasn't sent packet 3 back yet. I think he is doing it tomorrow. So I am sure we won't hear atleast for a few weeks if not longer.

Just a question regarding the blood test at the medical:

In addition to testing for HIV, what other blood tests are preformed as part of the standard medical procedure at Bentick Mansions/Knightsbridge? Just want to know as an FYI.

According to their website:

In addition, applicants aged 15 years and above require a chest X-ray and blood tests for HIV status and syphilis infection.

First of all, congrats to all of you who got approved! Must be a great feeling.

Also, I'm so glad to read about fab news from MARM and Dairy Farmer.

Just wanted to say thanks to all of you who answered my query about W-2. It's much appreciated even though my gratitude is a bit delayed and overdue. Thanks guys, you are the best.

Strangely, I had to resubmit my packet 3 as I did it wrong and missed out two forms (the important ones!)

I sent packet 3 off again with a next day delivery. The next day they told me my interview date was the 1st May. That was on the 20th April! I will keep my fingers crossed that you will get your interview date very soon! also that it is as quick as mine was!

What forms were those? Now I am scared! How did they inform you of your interview?

we couldn't find any cheaper than that last year unless you have a young persons rail card and it takes a certain percent off, but you have to get your tickets on the day so no being able to save by booking online or anything and you'd have to leave before 9am so no cheap day return option either, we left from braintree and got charged about 60 for both of us to go before 9am

as for being there early, we got there for our 8.30 app at around 7.50 fiddled around a bit and joined the queue around 8.15, and we were second on the non-immigrant visa list thing that looks like you've walked into an up-market Argos LOL, they say no more than 30mins before your app to be there but that early the line wasn't that long, nor was it at whatever time we got out of the embassy either
