I think you'll have some luck next week :) Yeah I booked it this morning for Thursday 12th! They only had 2 time slots available on all of the days I looked at which were 12.30pm & 1pm so that's something to bear in mind!

I think it depends on the exchange rate on the day :) I paid £402 for 2x visa fees today but I would give yourself a £20 cushion in case the rate drops.

True! I never thought of that. I should have maybe waited haha, but then you just don't know how the exchange rate will change!

You are right there. Visa fee is $265 for everyone, but what we pay on our currency varies depending on the exchange rate. I think I paid 239€ at the time.

Nice to see all of you UK's progressing and being there for each other with great info :thumbs:

Congrats @Salty2305 !

 

The NOA2 hardcopy came in the mail today! I got the notifications on Monday (the 25th), but the NOA2 hardcopy shows the actual approval date was Saturday the 23rd! This just means I get to start calling the NVC sooner (yay)!

Yay! I hope mine comes today! We haven't gotten any notification but T2 told us we were approved on 9/22. Still waiting on an actual notification. I hope we both get through the rest of the process nice and quick!
