Hi,

Just need some advice.

I have booked my flight to go over on the 12th of May to Indy to see my fiancee graduate on the Sunday. (also its her birthday)

I will only be staying for a week but have read on here a few times of people being turned away. Anyone got any advice or done this before.

I think it would break my fiancee's heart if i was turned away and not able to see her graduate.

HI

You need as much proof as possible that you have ties with your home country and intend to return eg utility bill, letter from employer, proof of mortagage if you have one. Oh and a copy of the invite to your Fiances graduation might help too. It really is up to the discretion of the POE officer. Many have done it without problems and a few have been turned away.

Good Luck

Also, take a copy OF the NOA-2, as this will say "forwarded to NVC, to forward to London Embassy"; any questions from POE officious, you can then explain, "I'm going to have to return to UK--leaving US--for the visa interview anyway".
