Just called the Department of State. Packet 4 was sent on March 21; interview date is April 8!!! Looks like I need to change my return flight :) Just trying to breathe right now :)

That's great news!! I just called the embassy and our interview is booked for 9th April!! Can't believe in just over 2 weeks we'll be through the final hurdle :)

Thanks for the link, I have a further question.. I know that you do not have to meet the vaccination requirements to obtain the visa, only at the point of adjustment of status.. If at the time of medical examination you do not meet all the vaccination requirements, is it possible to pay to have the relevant vaccinations at that time, or does this have to be done at another time?

Also if someone could tell me exactly what vaccinations I need to have I'll be sure to look into getting them as soon as possible anyway. I'm just curious to know whether it's possible to have them done at the time of the medical exam :) Thanks!

Hmmm.. Actually, I think the link posted previously answers my questions. It seems like if I went in and said 'vaccinate me against any and all of the conditions required for AOS and I'll pay' they'll be cool with that. Good to know.

My packet 3 letter states that the petition is valid for 4 months and that the notarised letter is needed if you require to revalidate the petition. Am I right in assuming that if your petition does not expire before interview you don't need the notarised letter?

This is exactly what my packet 3 letter says:

"The K1/3 petition is valid for four months from the date of the action (priority date at the bottom of the letter) and must be valid to process your case to conclusion. To revalidate the petition, please requested your fiancé (e) to make a notarised statement of intent to marry within ninety days of your arrival in the U.S. and present it on the day of your interview."

I would interpret this as if your petition is still within the four months then it is likely that you will not need a notarised letter, however we decided not to take a chance and my OH has done one for me to take, we figured better safe than sorry.

I'll ask him about the notarized letter tonight.... get him to read his letter again. That will be no problem if needed because I'm headed to England next week for my spring break. And I also plan to attend the interview; my presence should speak for itself :)

Hey DSP congrats on getting your interview date, so pleased for you hopefully all of us won't be too far behind you :D

Just a quick tip if you are planning to get one done I believe it would be much cheaper for you to get in done in the US depending where you are if you have time. It cost my OH about $6.00 to get the letter notarised in the US. Today I paid a whopping £90.00 to get another letter notarised (from my Ex) giving his permission for my Daughter to be able to immigrate into the US with me!

Can someone also clarify for me.. Do you have to take two separate trips to London, one for the medical, and one for the interview, or is it possible to somehow combine the visit?

I realise the answer is probably yes, you have to take two separate visits.. But it's worth checking, since I'd have to fly or get a train from Edinburgh :huh: Just another expense in the never-ending list of visa expenses, I guess! :no:

You have to travel down twice. London won't schedule an interview until they have the results of your medical. I'll be making my second trip down from Glasgow in just over 2 weeks

A written letter of intent with original signatures should be fine

no sense in paying more money with regards to the children its better

to be safe ex's can be a hassel.
