That was quick

I sent back my Packet 3 on the 26th April, had signed delivery confirmation on the 28th April, rang up DOS today and they said according to their records London has not received Packet 3 yet.

thanks! we have definitely been REALLY lucky. I did see someone who got through even quicker than us..through London..i can't remember who right now though. But I wanna say it was around 90 days NOA1 - Interview?

....i do feel guilty that we have been this lucky when there are people who have been waiting forever....

it can take up to a couple of weeks before they put the packet 3 information on their system, so although it is physically there DOS can't see that it is.

we sent it on the 22nd and it took them 5 days to look at it. I only know it was delivered the 23rd because my fiance had it go by next day delivery or something like that, that guaranteed when it would be delivered. I think the reason we got an interview so quickly is because we put June 9 as travel date, and then under that we wrote "first available interview". If you didn't write a travel or wedding date, or its farther away, you are going to get a later interview most likely.

Hmmm hopefully they will look at ours either tomorrow or early next week. For the travel date I put ASAP (May 19/20) minimum, I based this date on previous time lines, most people in the UK seem to take about a month between receiving packet 3 and the interview.

Don't feel guilty.. It doesn't seem to be a proper first in/first out queue. Luck was on your side and you can't control that.

I'm with bob. Some people are luckier than others. I didn't think I was going to get my NOA 2 until about June. When it came through in March I cried a little with happiness and felt so lucky. There are people who filed before me who are still waiting for a NOA 2 and there are people who filed after me who are already in the US....but hey....that's the way it goes.

Congratulations on the interview date Laura. You got one quite quickly!!! Gives me hope

I received my packet 3 today.....and returned it today special delivery for it to get there tomorrow before the bank holiday (I'm eager and didnt trust the post office not to lose it over the 3 day weekend ) so I cant wait for them to assign a date! I'm hoping for one in early / mid June. I put 30th June as my leave date.....so fingers crossed.....

Thanks! My fiance put June 9 as leave date....so I bet you will get early or mid June for sure! Don't panic if it takes a few extra days to get in the London system. Its normal
