Well as the title suggests, I got approved! :)

So as it was, my brother-in-law took me down to London, we set off at 6:30am from here in the Midlands to allow for traffic, we got there in good time, and I was in the larger queue at 9:50am for my 10:30am appointment, I was let through about an hour later by the 2 girls that looked like teenagers. I had the usual security inspection, and then proceeded to the other side of the building, where I got my Immigrant Visa ticket number.

I was seen after about 40 minutes, where I handed in my documents to a nice english guy who looked remarkably like Gary Oldman in Batman Begins. Then I was told to sit back down and I'm sure I waited 2 hours if not more, before I was asked back for the 2nd part of the Interview, and what was weird was that I was asked to raise my right hand and then he went through the oath and truth statement, yet the was a really loud noise in the background that sounded like a drill so i could barely hear him.

Anyways he asked me a few questions: what's my fiance's job, where does she work, what's my job, have we met each other's parents, how do I plan to be supported while I am there, and then there we go.. paid the courier, and we were back off home for an 11 hour day.

But it was worth it! :D

I'm sad to say i didn't get a Welcome to America though :(
