Congrats Sara.

I saw that you mentioned this in your review "my VISA would have been valid till 30th jan 2013 since it's linked to when the medical was done"

is there a timeframe for when you move based on the medical?? I am not going to be moving until December?

I had my medical on 30th July so that means the validity of my visa is gonna be for 6 months from that date rather than from when the visa is gonna be issued. I see from your timeline u had your medical on 26th July so your visa should be valid till 26th january no matter when you have your interview. Since you are planning to move in December you should be fine! :)

and thanks all! Its such a great feeling! I'll soon start itching to get the visa delivered even tho I won't be leaving till october! haha!

thanks Sara.

Elora is getting her letter from employer and bank for I-134 today. I presume it should be addressed to UCSIS? Would "To whom it may concern" be an issue.

I would put the USA Embassy in London address since USCIS is not involved anymore at this stage.

I dont think they are that picky about who u address it too tho.

I'm in London doing an internship up until mid september, then got my stuff to ship over to Alaska from Edinburgh and a wee trip to Italy to say goodbye to family and friends and on 6th October, I think, I am off to Alaska. The wedding is gonna be on 10th November in California. :)
