the $330 one i believe, that is what i paid when i had to do it

the visa fee of $330 is paid in advance before the interview so the only money he needs to take to the interview is however much it costs to pay for deliver... not sure how much that is but would think about £10

[Chris921 13]

hmm i paid about £42 for the delivery because I tried for an early morning delivery due to the night work I was doing, I think it is £15 otherwise, I also paid in advance i believe you have to in advance since you need the machine readable receipt.

i dont mean to be nosey but your timeline says you sent packet 3 on 31/3/2011 which will make it about 7 months from then to interview. is that due to the london embassy or you??

My fiance was having blood pressure problems and they had to get it under control, Which it took some time for his medicine to kick in and work and then he had to have a 24 hour moniter on his bp.. THen after he passed that, he had to fax updated medical reports into the London Clinic, which they promptly mailed all his medical forms to the Embassy and they passed his physical. The Embassy recieved all his medical and they have told us the last 3 weeks that they are satisfied with the reports and no further info is needed, Assuring him they have all the forms etc.

i think high blood pressure is to be expected due to the long and stressful visa process lol. im glad it has all been sorted though and he is now ready for interview. i hope he gets a date soon
