Hi all, we got our NOA2 today for the K1 fiance visa! I was wondering if anyone else has already gone through this procedure at the London Embassy. If so, can you please tell me how long it took from the time you received the NOA2 to the time you were granted your visa. I am going to London in July it would be great if I could either attend the interview, or even better if I can take him back with me. Thanks in advance! :star:

There are a number of UK filers going through the London embassy, you can try searching for their timelines by using this form: http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/filterlist.php

It seems to be taking around 2 months from what I can see. 1 week to go to NVC, 1 week to get to the consulate, then it is up to you to send back packet 3 ASAP, then about 1-1.5 months to get an interview date.
