[Closed account 1]

Yay, hot... are they trying to trick us unwitting Britons into thinking it's summer out there?

When I went it was freezing! We all sat with our coats on, lol

Dear VJs

Strange........ but it actually happened i received a call on ma work number at 3.30pm today i was not on desk den i received a call at 07.05 pm on ma cell phone and the call was from US embassy London and they left a voice mail ........that they want to change my interview date ???? Is that Possible????i am so confused right now BC i called my fiance to be with me at interview on 8 of June and she is just coming for 4 days ......i dont know what date now they will give me but i will hope for best ...............lets see ........

That's too bad. It seems like they've been doing that to a lot of people recently. I guess that their staff levels must be fluctuating. Is that because we're heading into school holiday territory, I wonder?

We finally have an interview date scheduled!!!

**** 17 June 2010 ****

Congrats! Seems like the 17th is going to be a busy day for K-1's. What time is your interview at? Where abouts in GA are you heading to? Two other people interviewing on the 17th (myself being one) are also moving to the Atlanta, GA area!

Oh my gosh! I hope they don't reschedule you too far off from your original date.

Double on my gosh! I hope they don't reschedule my fiance (also on June 8th), as we've already booked his flight

I got a call from the Embassy last night, trying to reschedule our interview from the 8th to the 9th or 10th. I asked what the cut-off date was for the fee increase (4th June) and then asked if they could interview us before the 4th, since it's 2 lots of fees for us (K1 and K2) hiking the cost from $262 to $700. So we're now interviewing on June 2nd.

Erm, you've changed me from the 16th to the 17th

I'm still going on the 16th i'm afraid, no one else to talk to

Nice work getting the "discount" though

LOL sorry! I dunno how that happened but do you mind if I hang off fixing it until the next update? I promise I won't forget

And yeah on the "discount"...it was rather galling going from $262 to $700 because of 4 days shortfall

[Ricky+Vanessa 43]

Our interview is 8am. And we are moving to Decatur, GA -- I'm trying to prepare my fiance's family for the heat!
