  1. Hi all, I had my visa interview 2 weeks ago and I was approved which is great. I just wanted to ask people what shipping companies/couriers they used to send their items over to the USA if possible please? I have been looking into a few already (DHL, Fedex and UPS) and been getting a few quotes. Hope you can help.
  2. Just thought I would give my opinion on this if anyone else on the forum was still deciding on hotels. I didn't stop in a hotel when I had my interview as I stopped overnight at my cousins place but if I did then I would just look at a Travelodge or a Premier Inn that is near the Embassy.
  3. I didn't because throughout the process I have seen online and on the paperwork received from the Embassy that they advise or recommend you to not book any trips so I followed their advice. I only booked once it was confirmed that I was approved.
  4. Yeah that is fine - my fiancee did the same when they sent it over to me
  5. Ahh yeah it can get very hot for sure!
  6. Oh really? haha did you grow up there then?
  7. Ahh yeah I have heard of the Kentucky Derby! And California.
  8. Ahh so you have had to a wait a little while. What state are you applying for? And I don't think I had to wait too long for the NVC and London Embassy.
  9. Thank you! And yeah definitely contact them - I found all the staff there helpful. It took about a year from my fiancee submitting the petition. And I will be travelling later this year. When did you submit your petition/application?
  10. Thank you - I had my visa interview last week though where I was approved so really happy about that! When I did ask medical related queries when on the phone to Visa Medicals before my medical appointment they were generally able to advise on most things but one or 2 people did say that they didn't want to advise on medical queries as they weren't medically qualified and that it was better to speak to the nurse. You could still try calling them and they may take your details and then ask a nurse and then call you back or you could email them?
  11. I'm not too sure unfortunately but you could put a post on the forum and see if someone knows or you could wait until the medical and speak to the nurse about it? Before I had my medical I was informed by Visa Medicals over the phone regarding my appointment and on the booking confirmation email that I needed a Covid booster vaccine but I decided to wait and see what the nurse at my medical appointment advised me.
  12. I had 2 doses in 2021 and then a booster in 2022 so 3 doses there and then a booster last month. Have you had the vaccine before?
  13. I would keep checking the site regularly to see what dates and times become available
  14. Apologies but why would you need more than one Covid dose?
  15. Yeah £98 is what I paid for mine. Also it might be worth speaking to the nurse when you have your medical as they have all the vaccination requirements, etc. When is your medical?
  16. There should be a list of Covid vaccine providers in the medical appointment confirmation email.
  17. That's good then! Glad it's all sorted now.
  18. I think DX Freight just deliver Monday to Friday from when I looked online
  19. I would just call them - it's more direct and easier. And no I received it by email.
  20. It should be ok. I had 6 weeks between my medical and visa interview. Once I got Covid vaccination proof I emailed over to Visa Medicals. After 2-3 days I rang them up and they said they would look into and get back to me. They rang back and left me a voicemail saying they had checked with the nurse and my file had all been signed off and was ready for the courier to collect and deliver to the embassy the next day. The vaccination worksheet was sent not long after that I think. I would give them a call tomorrow and ask them to give you an update.
  21. Thank you @Tesco - still got quite a few things to sort out though.
  22. Thank you @Moda25! Interview was last Thursday (8th August) and then was issued the day after on Friday (9th August).
  23. Just an update on this - I received my passport and sealed documents today. Delivered when they said they would and my grandma signed on behalf of me.
  24. Just an update to say that passport and sealed documents have been delivered to me today
  25. Just an update on this - I arrived around an hour and a half before my interview haha but I just waited around for about 30 minutes before joining the queue which I have left a review regarding the embassy on the embassy page on this sites as well.
