Nice I live a little more North of that in Hertfordshire - Borehamwood. We have the film studios in my town. August huh? I would say I'll show you around but I am hoping to be in sunny Texas by then getting married!

Sorry to jump in but as a fellow Octobear, its weird to find someone else who also lives in Hertfordshire

Hopefully there will be some immense movement tomorrow. I dunno why but I think at least tomorrow we will see 80 approvals alongside 20 RFE looked back at. If I am wrong please feel free to chuck soft toys at me!

Any idea how London’s embassy is? 

[LinG2018 65]

I am one of the 30th filers who got RFE on May 1st. Well, let's see what USCIS wants.

From what I have read the London embassy is pretty chill and things move pretty fast. Sounds silly but I am now preparing things like the ACRO and getting access to my medical records so when the NOA2 finally does come. I can have everything prepared!

No wayyy! That is awesome! Makes me kind of wanna be nosey and ask where? But also... will you give some tips for the interview once you've been?

ACRO is the police certificate that is needed and from my searching that costs £45. Their version of chill again just from reading interview reviews is that most people depending on the day and time are usually out from the interview in about 1-3hrs. Usually get called up to a first window to submit all documentation and then the 2nd time you're called it's the actual interview. Seen in 2 or 3 cases where it's a case of like 5 or 6 questions only and then people get approved? So yeh.

that is perfect! So when you go to ACRO, do they just search your name and give you a certificate to say if they found you in their database or not? So about how much for the medical, and visa fees? I wonder if the medical or interview appointments are backed up? ugh

I doubt they're backed up and with the fact they have moved to a bigger location now, might be to our advantage.

 

Here are some links for the ACRO;

 

https://www.acro.police.uk/police_certificates.aspx

 

https://www.acro.police.uk/Police_Certificates_Online.aspx

 

The place for the medical Knightsbridge usually private I believe so I think they're usually quite fast? Cost is £290 I believe.

https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/us-visas/visa-information-resources/list-of-posts.html 

 

If you go to that page you can download the pdf for the London Medical Requirements

 

Also the last fee payment is around $265 I believe. I think you can pay before or on the day of the interview at the Embassy.
