Wow amazing! do you think your calls sped the process up a bit? and are you allowed to share the number you used to call them?? :)

I have actually been wondering if i can track my case online - i know i could when it was the I-129f in the U.S, but since it came to London, can i track my London progress anywhere do you know? Sent my paperwork back and i think it got signed foron 13th aug

Well done you, and you got a really quick medical too! they are storming through these cases arent they!! :)

I called the DOS, not the embassy. It's free to call the DOS and they've got the same info.

202-663-1225 (Option 1 for main menu, then 0 for operator) Be prepared to hold a while.

They can tell you when/if London has received your file and when/if Packet 3 was sent,etc.

There isn't a way to track your case online once it's left the USCIS, unfortunately.

No, calling didn't speed things up, I just wanted to stay informed every step of the way. I like ticking the checkboxes as each milestone passes. Oh well, it kept me in the loop the whole way!

When he called Knightsbridge to schedule the medical they scheduled him a week and a half out, so be prepared. Make sure your fiance has all of his shots prior to going (Tdap and MMR, if he's had chicken pox he won't need the Varicella) because it's cheaper and easier and he won't require the I-693 at AOS. The doctor was very curt and perfunctory at Peter's exam, but they did their job and sent him on his merry way afterward. (Sweating and shaking like a leaf from nerves... but he was done and out of there.)

Hope that helps!

thanks for the quick reply! Actually its me who is the UK fiancée - i have my medical booked for 2nd September, so not too long to wait either, i confirmed that date in my covering letter with my paperwork too. I might try giving the DoS a call tomorrow, or maybe its better to get Doug to do it as he is obviously in the U.S? does it matter who calls? i'm guessing not

seems like its all happening so fast - i was kinda planning on an October half term visit to the U.S with my two boys to go help sort out our new home, but i might have the visa by then!! :)
