Hey you all! My husbands interview was today and he was approved!!! Been waiting for this since September !!! God is so great!!!!! it was super fast, easy and smooth for us. I went with him and the lady who interviewed him was so nice. If you have an interview coming up, my thoughts to you...DON'T WORRY. Trust God and it will all work out. Have faith and believe!

That's great. Congratulations! :)

A quick question for you: Did you notify the embassy before you went that you'd be attending with him (and if so, how?) or did you just show up on the day and hope to be let in?

You have to call the embassy and they will give you a code to put in the subject box to email the consulate. The number is on the uk embassy site. I emailed them about two months ago asking to be put on he list to attend as his wife.
