2010 United Kingdom Interview Thread

Did you contact them about sending the packet without the checklist or did they return it to you?

We had everything for packet 3 ready to send back but had not yet received David's long form birth certificate in the mail so we didn't feel comfortable signing the checklist saying we had everything we needed for the interview. We decided to send in the forms to get the ball rolling and then just send on the checklist once we had received the birth certificate. We didn't contact them about this but we did include a cover letter explaining that the checklist would come at later date.

arwilson, you should be able to call the DOS for an update, when i did, amazingly it was ready that morning and was given the interview date immediately. Seems a few others had exactly the same response.

Hello everyone! Had interview yesterday and was approved :-)

We are moving out in 2 weeks :-)

The interview itself was painless and actually pleasant. The American Consular officer was VERY nice and asked me when we met, when we got engaged and when we are moving to the US. That's it.

I have waited a long time before coming up to the first window, but there was a lot of young kids going for some camp jobs in America. The window number 1 was calling for people with I numbers. That's where my documents originals and copies where taken away. The lady there didn't have any manners and didn't know the words: "thank you" "please" "hello". That was the only one unpleasant thing about the whole experience.

I had one problem with fingerprints and probably did it the wrong way which was my fault...but before she tried to take my fingerprints for the second time she said: " do this in a right way otherwise we will be sitting here forever". LOL Normally I would blow up, but seeing my little girl and my fiance outside the Embassy made me smile, so I didn't get mad at this misreable & very sad person :-)

Good luck to everyone at their interviews

Congratulations to all of you guys with approvals! So exciting to see all the little gold stars showing up from Sundrop!

Our visa was delivered today, it feels great to have it in hand. Though somewhat surprisingly they didn't check ID like they said they would, it was being delivered to an office building and they just dropped it of at the front desk which doesn't seem that secure, but oh well, at least we have it!

I think you need to look round for the 2010 poverty guildines, they will tell you the requirements for the I-134. I belive for a single person the guide is over 18K a year, im sorry i really dont know what the amount is with a child invloved. The information is around on the forums.

The beneficiary can self sponser but i am not sure of the amount required to do so.. its alot as far as i am aware.

Poverty Guidelines times 4 rings a bell (but don't quote me on it).
