Well, Dan emailed the embassy yesterday (via response to an email they had sent him while trying to schedule the interview.) They responded today (just after my fit of hysteria that we won't get the visa in time for him to be here as planned) that the visa was issued today and will be delievered shortly. He called SMS, and their last pickup at the embassy daily is at 7:15 pm. They told him to call back at 7:30 - they close at 8:00. My meltdown was partly due to them. Dan called first this morning (before receiving the email from the embassy) and was informed that if they got the visa from the embassy today, it would be delivered tomorrow. Otherwise, it would be Tuesday before he would get it because they don't service Exeter on Monday. When he called back (after getting email) they told him that they WILL do Saturday deliveries for an additional fee. So...here's hoping it all goes smoothly!

:lol: Yeah - a week could be a bit of an issue for us! Have you called DOS to make sure all was ok with it?
Congratulations!!! Glad to hear it went so smooth. Let us know when you get your visa in hand...we still have not received ours and it has been 1 week since the interview (we are supposed to fly out Friday! oops!). Hopefully yours will be delivered quickly.

Just realized you have your wedding planned for the 11th...I didn't mean to scare the piss out of you that Jake has not had his visa delivered yet. I'm crossing my fingers that you guys get it delivered tomorrow so Dan can fly out Sunday & you guys don't have to stress about it. Definately wishing you the best...Sorry about that.

We have called the US embassy in London and they said that they can give us absolutely no information...that there is no way to track it or determine when we will receive it. The curior service said that they have not received it yet which means that we'll receive it Friday at the very earliest. Any more ideas?

Hey Jake&Ali, I just remembered you were waiting for your visa. Did you get it in the end???
