Appointment date set!!!

[Yoms 0]

Thank you all for all you support so far, it's been helpful! My fiance now has an appointment date set! So now we will go over the documents she is taking in and make sure everything is ok. We know each other very well but we will still do practice interviews. I hear the london embassy is very nice so i am not worried much.

i have some quick questions:

Can i ask to have the interview date bumped up so she can have it sooner? will that be a problem?

Do you think it will help if i was in London with her for the interview since she has a Nigerian pasport? we don't have any problems or criminal or immigration problems either, clean records.

Do they take her passport from her or they mail her the visa?

and if she does her interview on a thursday, how long does it take for her to get her visa in the mail?

thanks guys!

They will take the passport and hold it until the visa is printed in it, then return it.

Hi Yoms, I did you ever get the pm I sent you yesterday about the timeline; When is your interview date set for? I'd be updating my timeline sometime later in the day. I hope that your interview goes well as much as I hope our will.

Don't buy a plane ticket til the visa is in hand... you wouldn't want her to have a plane ticket, and then have them hang on to the passport longer than anticipated.

Ours was returned in 4 days, but I think things have been moving a tad slower lately..

For London, the interviews are VERY easy. Read some of the reviews of people who have gone.

My fiance's interview was 4/26 and even between the Friday royal wedding holiday and Monday bank holiday, he got his passport/visa yesterday, 5/4. Even so, I wouldn't purchase a plane ticket or anything until the visa is in-hand. The interview was extremely smooth for him even with a few minor crimes on his record. Good luck, you'll be fine!
