Just...gr.

Wow, you've been waiting a long time! Do people who are waiting for a DCF interview wait in a different pile to people waiting for a K1? Or are we all just interviewed by the same people?

Have you chased it up with the Embassy at all, it might worth emailing them.

Good luck.

June 5th is the date the visa lady said on the phone yesterday,still waiting on the actual letter and hope it arrives today,I asked about the medical and she said all the instructions were in the letter,so don't know when I have to do that,presumably some time before the interview. I am in Glasgow so reckon it will be two separate trips to London for me.

You can have your medical the same day as the interview, they will then approve the visa subject to medical results. Good luck

Mine was delivered early, about 7.50am. I've no idea what happens if no-one is home though, sorry.
