Nigel had his interview this morning and his visa was approved!! He couldn't believe how long he had to sit around and wait for a 3-minute "interview" but was very happy and excited that it's all over with. I'll put more info in the embassy review section but he had a very positive experience. Now we can sit back and relax until after we're married and the paperwork start all over again :)

One question for those of you who have already been approved in London.....The embassy is sending the passport to Nigel's registered home address which is also his parent's address. He won't actually be there later this week to get the package when it comes. Can his parents sign for it? He thought maybe he needed to send his license to them so they could prove that he lives there and they are allowed to accept his packages. Did anyone else have a similar experience?

Thanks!
