Oh and how do I add the timeline to the bottom of my posts?

Thanks for the latest comments. It really is a huge support to get these messages. I think the most irritating aspect of all of this is the unknown, fuzzy waiting we all have to do, whilst seemingly nothing is happening. I am going to join up to the September filers to see how we compare to the rest. Does anybody know the protocol on travelling to the US whilst the application is pending and what impact, if any this has on one's application?

Travelling to the US whilst in process has no impact on your application. Just be sure to take proof of ties back in the U.K.

A member in the September filers group had a bad POE experiance a while back. Could have been because of the intended long stay, but got through in the end.

Yeah, it's definitely not the waiting that got me (though I would have rather avoided it) it was not feeling like we had any control, and not being able to tell when the waiting could end! That's why I liked the statistics and later watching Igor's list (there's a link in that immigration timelines link I mentioned earlier).

As for visiting, it is TOTALLY POSSIBLE! I might even say "easy" regarding UK-US visits. Check out the FAQ: visajourney.com/content/k1visit Don't worry if you don't have every single thing on that list. Most visitors get in with just the return ticket. Nik visited me after the petition was submitted and they didn't give him (too much) trouble. There's always a possibility for denial, but it's pretty small for VWP.
