I'm actually having an issue with my timeline...I filled it out when I first registered, yet sometimes it will not show my timeline when I come to the site. Then I have to provide my email for the site to bring my timeline up again. This has happened multiple times since I've registered. I have not needed to update anything so I'm not sure why it keeps disappearing!

There is a thread to report bugs, you might want to let the admins know about this problem there. Maybe they can fix it for you

Try following my instructions. Your profile does not contain the country flag where you will interview in. If you look at others, they all have flags so it makes it easy to respond because each embassy is different. Not completing the profile leaves you at a disadvantage to the responses you will receive. Your timeline is working just fine. I can see it when I use the "timeline' link below your information.

We just had our interview in London and got approved!!!! 
 

was at the window for less than 2 minutes. 
she didn’t ask for any of my affidavit of support evidence at all. I was surprised as I thought the evidence (tax returns etc) was a pretty big deal?

anyone else have this?

That's the first that I heard that UK didn't ask for Financials. The Philippine consulate hasn't asked in 3 years so may be it will begin to be a trend. The I-134 document is not a binding contract but just a piece of paper to show the CO that you are not going to be a burden on the tax payers. It will be interesting if others have the same experince that you did. Congratulations and safe travels. Please don't quit your job or by plane tickets till you have your visa in hand and had an opportunity to look it over for errors.

I also haven’t heard of them not asking for the financial stuff, so I was pretty worried!!

She literally Just asked what our wedding plans are and then she clearly said ‘you’re approved, your visa will take a week.’ My US fiancé was there with me and I had my folder in front of me with all my paperwork and she said she didn’t need anything 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️

Less is more in your case. The less you submitted the more you were going to be approved. BTW, don't live by the one week for your visa statement. That may or may not happen but UK is pretty quick in production turnaround for visas. We see 1-2 weeks. I just didn't want your expectations to high that it will arrive in one week.

Watch your expiration date on the VISA. Be sure you leave yourself plenty of time.

I had my medical December 3rd and planning to leave March 23rd.

hoping that should be fine? We are getting married May 12th, hence why I’m waiting till March to go over.

Sounds like a very realistic plan. I wish you guys nothing but happiness. Next is AOS. BTW when you get to the US besure to get the Social Security out of the way, first week you are there/here.  You'll find information here on that process.
