Had my interview today at London, was approved! So close now. Just trying to figure out when to expect the visa/passport in the mail.

Any of you Feb/March interviewees get yours back yet?

Also anyone know if DX Secure deliver on a Saturday?

That's good to know :thumbs: generally there is no one about in the house during the day so I don't like the thought of missing the packet arriving or, worse, it being left in the street.

So close that you finally Americanized those dates in your signature. Well done. :star:

Less than 2 weeks until *D-day. Got your AOS paperwork filled out yet? I have a list for that.

On the subject of interviews. My husband's only interview was the K1 London in July 2008. May you all be so lucky that you don't interview again for a long time. He got an appointment letter Monday. (Yep, still waiting on USCIS years later.) He interviews for American citizenship on April 26.

Is your list for AOS the same one as the guide on this site? I'm going to be leaving for the States in May, do you think we should start getting stuff prepared now?
