Just so you can get an idea with what’s happen with London right now, as others have said there’s been no K1s in London since March 2020 unless you’re a plaintiff in Milligan vs Pompeo. 

When it comes to the lawsuit, plaintiffs added in October have had their interviews and most are in the US. Of the plaintiffs added in January, there’s still 23 London cases that have had no movement and are still waiting to hear from London. There’s almost 150 London plaintiffs in round 3 that are waiting to be added. I joined round 3 and my best guess is I’ll get my interview around June/July time. So I’m suing and it’s still 3/4 months out, could be even more. London is being really difficult with plaintiffs, it’s a problem consulate that the lawyers are having to highlight to the judge. 
 

There is one bit of hope, after round 3 is good to go the lawyers are going to ask the judge to apply it to all K1s, if the judge agrees then all consulates, including London, will have to resume K1s as normal. There is of course still a backlog and unfortunately without an expedite, I wouldn’t hold out much hope for an interview before the end of the year. It all depends on London’s attitude and whether they get on with it but clearly they’re in no rush. I hope I’m wrong though and London shocks us all by getting their ####### into gear and your interview is a lot sooner than expected. 

To be honest London’s attitude is disgusting when I’ve called. I can’t believe they wouldn’t even let us register her birth.

I’m a teacher and taught during the tough times in a pandemic heavily pregnant.

I can’t believe they can’t have a system to stagger people.

I registered her birth with no hassle, waited outside checked in and walked to the necessary office. 
 

I will be expediting I have to wait for my NVC number. More money to be spent I guess.

 

How do I add myself to the lawsuit i should perhaps do that as a back up.

 

Honestly having the baby i switched off for a few months and now i need to get on with my chasing 😡😡

As a parent of US citizen child OP is exempt* to the Proclamation. Another K-1 applicant that is exempt for the same reason interviewed in August, which was about 3 months before the November order in Milligan case. https://www.visajourney.com/timeline/profile.php?id=338037

 

*Since OP is exempt, after getting the visa OP could travel directly to the US.

I will be instructing an attorney as soon as I get my NVC case number.

It’s so frustrating that my fiancé is able to fly in and out to me no questions asked, he’s only recently been asked for a covid test.

 

The U.K. are so soft with their borders yet they can’t conduct interviews safely and yet we can’t go over to him

Unfortunately the lawsuit is closed now, no more being added but thats because they are going to ask the judge to apply it to all K1s. This will take sometime but hopefully you don’t need to rely on that because your expedite is timely and you can be with your daughter soon.

Thanks for the insight into what is going on with the lawsuits. Any idea of when there would be a ruling on applying this to all K-1s?
