The picture thing... after much debate, since some things (including the instructions on Visa Journey) seem to indicate yes and others say no, and since ONE of the three pics listed on the checklist goes to the medical and so forth... anyway, we did attach pictures to the I-134. I keep wondering if we should take another set of pics as a backup, or whether it's ok to assume that it's fine... and then I wonder if I should ask London... and then I wonder if I think far too much about this stuff.

Any opinions? Did anyone attach pics, and if so, did that come out ok?

Congrats Missy!!!! :dance::dance: Could you all also keep us in your thoughts the next few days? I am leaving Wednesday to go join my FI in London for his interview then spend the week meeting his family before we come home together (hopefully). I am sooo excited and nervous all at the same time....I think I would go crazy if I went in any sooner than the day before for the interview....24 hours will be a hard enough wait. :wacko:

Will certainly do so in future..

Don't worry Richi- I also sent mine standard mail- and they obviously received it!! :yes:

Good luck to everyone having their interviews this week!! I'm taking an 8 am flight out of Newark on Friday...... my husband and I both realized last night on the phone how nervous we both are for Monday (those damn travel visa denials!) and how glad we are to be able to go together!! I take a lot of hope and strength from everyone else being approved. :luv: We leave on Monday night for beautiful Lancashire and hope it's a celebratory train ride!!

See my timeline for all previous dates!

EEK! I've got my interview tomorrow morning and I'm starting to get nervous. I've gone over all my docs and I'm pretty sure that everything's OK but there's this little niggling doubt that there'll be some teeny tiny thing missing or done wrongly which will screw things up! :blink:

Feeling a bit tearful right now thinking about how important tomorrow is to John and me and what a huge deal this all is to everyone on this forum. All we want to do is be with the people we love. It does seem that most people get approved, but I'm scared now that after this long journey, when we've almost got to the end, something will happen to mess it all up.

Very happy for everyone who's been approved recently :dance: and good luck to everyone else who's having their interview this week. And I hope Techgirl hears from the Embassy very soon with her interview date!

Sending everyone good vibes
