Right now our petition is at the London Embassy. My fiance has received packet 3 and will be putting it in the post on Saturday. His medical is Wednesday, January 18th. My question is, how should we progress? I have read on here that some people do not wait for the embassy to contact them. Is it best that we call/email as soon as the medical is complete to see about scheduling an interview. I have seen where some people wait for packet 4 and it never comes so they just call. Just wondering what others have experienced. Thank you :)

once london has all the required forms (including DS-2001) and your medical results then they will send your fiance an appointment letter.

I just remember reading where some emailed/called before receiving the packet 4 (interview appointment letter) was just wondering if anyone had done that or if we just have to wait. One post said they called DOS to see if they were eligible for interview then called consulate & set it up before physically receiving the packet. That was at embassy in Canada though, not UK.

I have also talked to someone directly who didn't wait, they called to set up interview. Once again it was different embassy. It wasn't UK it was Columbia. Would really love to know if anyone did this with UK embassy :)

all embassies do it a different way but as far as i know all you can do with London is wait for them to send you the appointment letter

Thank you, good to know. We have come this far, what's a bit more waiting......that is what I keep telling myself anyway :) Packet 3 is completed and ready to go in the post tomorrow. We will take care of what we can in a timely fashion and then try to wait patiently :)
