London Waivers (for anyone filing I-601 and/or I-212 following denial in London)

London Graduates (for successful petitioners/beneficiaries post-London: AOS, moving to America, and off-topic discussions)

pax · February 16, 2006

Well, it's been a pretty good February so far in London! Congrats to all the recently-approved.

I think Mary and Tom may be close to getting an answer on their I-601. Mary's mostly posting in the Waivers thread these days (see the link in my signature), so if y'all have a chance, please swing by and give Mary and Tom some good mojo! Mary has to leave the UK on March 21st, so it would be awesome if they had an answer soon so Tom could go with her.

Gladdy · February 17, 2006

Oh and one more thing.... was I supposed to send 2 passport pics back with my packet 3 or do I just need them to take to the embassy???

Thanks again!

Samantha

Don't send any pics back with the packet 3, they need to be brought on your interview date. There are also two documents that you aren't supposed to sign until you are at the embassy. Please see below link for more info.

Miranda, you need to send back all of the paperwork in order for them to schedule your interview. This includes the DS230, DS 156, DS 156K and DS 157 AND the checklist. Even if you don't have the police report back or you don't have the I-134 affadavit ready, just check off everything as if you do, since you WILL have it all by the time the interview arrives. Otherwise there will be a huge delay in getting your date.

Sending back the checklist alone does nothing, they need ALL of the other Packet 3 forms in order to enter the new case file information into their system. And consequently if they have all those papers and no checklist, they still won't schedule you since they assume you aren't ready. You need to send it ALL. Here is the London Embassy site which can give you more info on this all.

http://www.usembassy.org.uk/cons_new/visa/...processing.html

Then once packet 3 and checklist are in (you need to send this recorded delivery with signature request) you can wait about 2 weeks before you very nicely start emailing the embassy to see if they have all your forms and if they can give you a date.

Good luck!

Hi Estalla Gladdy here, I have sent all my forms back and had my medical and that was all done by the end of January, I asked my lawyer to check the status of my case but as far as that goes I have received nothing back from him either. Im new to this so what kinda time should I allow before e-mailing the Embassy in London and what kinda wording is commonly used in such an e-mail just so I dont sound impolite or ungrateful to their efforts on my behalf so far...?

put your case number in the subject line & write a nice polite email say your have had medical sent all papers back & your ready for interview, could they tell you if a interview date has already been arranged for you!!...........................just write whatever you want!!

Estella76 · February 17, 2006

And it helps in that email to say when you sent your Packet 3 and checklist to them!!! Good luck! (F)

TeresaChristina · February 17, 2006

Hi all!

Alan got packet 4 today! His interview date is March 10th at 10 am! I would have updated myself on the list, but couldn't figure out how. :blush:
