But cash? is it some kind of no VAT deal

Oh actually, my bad, you can pay with your visa by card as well. The thing you can't do is pay the courier with cash.

It was £86 on April 6, 2010, but it could go up or down a couple pounds by your interview.

[F2C-MaDMaXX 1]

I assume the courier is to send your visa post interview?

yes

Do we find out before we get it, or do they finish by saying, we'll be in touch...

[Rito 28]

They'll tell you if you got it, or if additional documents are needed, or if there's a problem.

Reading the interview reviews should answer a lot of your questions.

Thanks Rito, seems a lot less official and less interrogation like that i expected.

My NOA2 will "expire" this friday, way before my interview, does anyone have experience of this or know if it makes any difference?

No it's automatically renewed

Cool, thanks.

That was so very very helpful, thank you very much for that.

So far, i will be taking with me; (is there a list somewhere of the things to take with you to the embassy?)

I-134 for fiancee and co sponsor.

tax transcripts for both.

birth cert for co sponsor

Letter from employer for co sponsor and school transcript for fiancee.

letter of intent (updated) from fiancee.

Also bring:

- birth certificate of UK citizen

- copy of the NOA2

- passport of UK citizen

- police certificate

- two color photographs of UK citizen

- £86 in cash

- a credit card to pay for the £14.20 courier fee

- a book to read (long wait)

What about all the stuff that has already been sent to USCIS & London - do we need a copy of all that too? I'm sure i read somewhere that you did...

I think i'll need 'check-in' baggage.

[F2C-MaDMaXX 1]

I believe you do need a copy of the i-129f, whichever way, i'm getting a copy sent over for me.

I think i will do too. Better to be looking at it than looking for it on the day.

[F2C-MaDMaXX 1]

That's what i figured.

I've got to work out if it's even plausible travelling down by train as i did for the medical, it's practically round the corner from there. However, all the appointments i've seen people get are first thing, i'd have to get a train at like 5 in the morning.

Just as an interjection here, I hadn't heard about VJ wiki until about 6 months after I joined VJ and I feared that they would be out of date...I think this kind of thread is a great idea because it has the freshest (is that a word? ) information, ideally, and people don't generally point to VJ wiki here, they either point to the guides or to the regional forums...

[Justine+David 218]

oops that was meant for NOA2--Interview...shows what you get for having two long islands at Chicago while waiting to go home from seeing your honey in Scotland...at least I can type well
