Hi,

I'm wanting to know if there is anything I need to do now that my I129F has been approved. Do I just wait until my application is processed through the NVC and arrives at the US embassy in London?

I know I need to have a medical before I can book my interview. Does anyone know a helpful list of things that need to be done for the medical/for the interview?

I need to have my interview before August so I can start my MBA, but see that the processing times are almost 3 months! Any helpful suggestions on speeding the processes up?

The UK forum is a good place to start asking London questions.

Congratulations....There is an amazing thread on the topic of what to do for the process from NOA2 through the interview here:

Lots of valuable information.
