Yes they are.

100% so far, makes you wonder what things they would deny on. They must trust us uk people. I have read other country threads and their stories are horrendous. The 60 second, 4 or 5 question interview we get in London is a breeze compared with other countries. Lets hope that they keep it up and thats the norm.

Have just been reading through this thread and feeling encouraged that at least one part of the process should be straight-forward and that when we get to that point it will hopefully just be a formality.

Congratulations to all the people approved so far this year and good luck to those with interviews coming up!

Defo - I am going to be nervous enough without having some kind of brutal interrogation

They can and do deny. Drug use, criminal convictions (for sometimes seemingly harmless and/or spent convictions)...the denials do happen. We're at 100% now, but pop over to the waiver forum, there's a London-specific thread in there.

I remember a few years ago a couple that went just ahead of us got denied...I think they live in the UK now.

I'm still convinced that will be me. I'm even starting to look into what we can do afterwards to either sort things out or as an alternative.

Also, to anyone wondering if having your fiancé(e) present at the interview helps, in my case I think it definitely DID. They didn't ask to see any proof of the relationship whatsoever despite us bringing loads of photos and other ####. They didn't even ask to see the letters of intent, oddly. This whole process, medical aside, has been strangely effortless for us. We filed the original I-129F at the end of September, and four months to the day later we've got the visa.

Woah, that is speedy!

Congrats to you and DD2004!

Debz - it's always best to be prepared but I still maintain you will be 100% fine

I keep trying to be more positive but it doesn't work. I just get myself more positively convinced it'll be bad.

Scottsvisa was asking about form ds 2001 with packet 3...do any of u guys know anything about this?

[gwenneh 7]

That's the checklist, which has to be sent back so that your interview can be scheduled.

Oh ok thanks...my fiance filled out the forms and I didn't realize that's the fancy name for it!

WAY too many codes and abbreviations in this process!!!

yeah, i agree, what's wrong with just calling it checklist....sounds nicer than evil form name ds 2001
