hiya!

quick question bout getting your visa after the interview...

if my husband gets approved for the visa, can he really pay more to receive it the next day, or does it really take a week to receive it by post?

just wanted to clarify if he'll be able to come to the states sooner, than later!

thanks,

You cannot pay more to have it come quicker, just more to have it come by a specific time. We paid extra to have it delivered before 8am as we both needed to go to work in the morning. It is impossible to say how quickly London will send it to you -- we got it 2 days later, but there have been longer turnaround times historically, even if all the paperwork is in order on the day. Just to let you know they are turning them around relatively quickly at the moment, though... :)

No probs! :thumbs: By the way, I took the liberty of updating your interview details on the UK Interview thread as you were languishing on the "Waiting for Interview" list. After your interview, come on over to the thread to tell us you've been approved -- we're waiting for you!
