I emailed the US Embassy of London today to check my medical report had arrived and to ask when my visa would be issued. To recieve this automatic responce;

THIS IS AN AUTOMATED REPLY. PLEASE DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS E-MAIL.

IF YOU WERE ASKED TO USE THIS ADDRESS, WE WILL ANSWER IN THE ORDER YOUR

E-MAIL WAS RECEIVED.

IF YOU WERE NOT ASKED TO USE THIS ADDRESS, YOU WILL RECEIVE NO FURTHER

RESPONSE.

This e-mail address is solely for individuals who have been authorized

to contact the Consular Information Unit about a specific matter.

This address is not for general inquiries from the public, attorneys or

agents of record. Unauthorized inquiries will be deleted without

response.

Highly detailed visa information is available from the Embassy's

website

at http://london.usembassy.gov. Due to our heavy workload, we cannot

respond to email inquiries when the subject matter is addressed on the

website.

We also cannot respond to requests for expedited processing, or

nonimmigrant visa "case status" inquiries which are still within the

estimated time frame given on the website, or by the interviewing

Consular Officer, whichever is longer.

If you still have questions after reading all of the content on the

website, please call the Embassy's Operator Assisted Information

Service

for personalized service. Contact information can be found on this

page: http://london.usembassy.gov/cons_new/visa/index.html.

What the heck?

Fiona

Love hurts

When you live an ocean away

When you change your sleep schedule to catch a few more moments

When you really need to be held and you have to imagine whilst your partner describes it

When you constantly refresh the USCIS website to see if you're getting any closer

Love Loves

When it repays you with the love of your life

When God finally answered your biggest prayer

When you can live life again in the real world but still have that eternal connection

When you wake up for to the beginning of the rest of your life with the person you fought so hard for

When you love somebody that much

You'll do anything

If you've just sent them back packet 3, I would wait at LEAST a few weeks before emailing them about an interview. I'm not sure what their 'standard' wait time for that is now, but it used to be 8-12 weeks (although it usually never took that long).
