hi! filed on march 29, as of today they're reviewing applications filed March 19, so hope to hear something in a week or 2! :)

 

in regards to scheduling interview/medical exam, do we get to pick any dates? once these have been completed, is there a deadline for moving - for example, after medical results do they say 'you passed, you now need to move within 3 months' or something?

 

also, is the medical exam in London as well?

This should give you some info regarding the medical in London, https://uk.usembassy.gov/visas/family-immigration/medical-examination/ . You should probably also read this before your interview: https://uk.usembassy.gov/visas/family-immigration/required-documents/

 

As far as the moving deadline, your visa will be valid for 6 months from the medical, but will not be returned to you until a few days after your interview at the embassy. So you'll likely have around 5.5 months to move.
