Hello everyone,
Sorry we have not had time to share our experience with you all. First, I wanted to thank everyone who has helped us go throw this.
As I previously mentioned my fiance had his interview on MARCH 25 at the London consulate. The interview went really smooth I don't want to repeat what everyone else has said. It's basically the same. Our number was 5010. Most important that I want to share with you all is what we have been throw with some problems.
We were really worried cause my fiance, when he first arrived in UK, was register by someone and they made a mistake on his name and birth-date. However we found out that the US embassy doesn't really care about it as long as you tell them the truth what has happened.
We sent our packet 3 and not even few days later we got our interview date. We didn't know it was going to be that fast and thank God it was great. However we had a problem. We did not had the ACPO on o... read complete review

My fiance waited for about 4 hours and eventually when he was called, he said the interview was only about 3 minutes or so...he didn't even have a chance to show photos and the interviewer only asked a few questions, and he was in! He was told he was approved but we are waiting for the visa to be in his hands!

So I set off from home at 6 am thinking thats plenty of time to get to my interview at 9 am. Traffic was particularly bad, parked the card in Hammersmith caught the tube to Bond Station and ran in my 3 in heels and coat with all my paperwork to the Embassy.. I felt a million bucks.. NOT REALLY.. so thats who are having interviews soon.. the 9 am is just a guide line.. dont panic if you are little late.
Went through the line and metal detectors, was told to turn right.. I turned left.. got a telling off.. MAKE SURE YOU TURN RIGHT and go around the building.. you have to get a ticket, which i did and waited for hours for my number to be called.. THINK ARGOS.. its the same set up.. hundreds of people in 1 room waiting for their ticket number.
When my number was called went to the window the man asked for the documents, I think i was more on the ball, giving what he needed before he prompted.. sign the forms did the finger prints... paid the fees and went ... read complete review

My Wife, my Son and I arrived in line outside the embassy at 6am! My wife was determined to me first in line.
We started our journey from home at 5am, missing rush hour, circumventing the congestion charge and parking deep under Hyde Park.
It was rather cold that morning. My son (21 month old) refused to cover himself with his trusted blanket as we pushed his buggy toward Grovenor Square. It seemed he decided today of all days to start his terrible 2s early. My wife and I feared it would be a rather long day for him.
On arriving outside the embassy, we query a security guard as to where we should stand. The queue barriers created a snake of many mouths. He directed us to a standing stop with a wry smile. He soon left for home as his late arriving relief took over. Not before expressing his disgust at his colleague’s time keeping.
As time went on, the queue grew behind us. As the queue grew, my Son’s patients begin to diminish. Impatience ... read complete review

Although currently staying just outside of London since our lease expired last week, my wife and I booked a hotel room near the US Embassy to avoid any risks of traffic or public transport delays or potential G20-related disruptions (which, by the way, there were not). We stayed at the Milleniuem Mayfair at Grosvenor Square, literally just 1 minute from the building, which was quite nice and reasonable priced for London from the rate we found on Lastminute.com. This was also convenient to leave our electronic devices and other belongings at the hotel.
When we arrived at 7:30 AM, there was a queue of about 20 people ahead of us who were slowly being let in. I was admitted without any problems although I had previously sent an email to the US Embassy to confirm it would be OK to accompany my wife for her visa interview. Once past security, we entered the building and were assigned a number. After waiting about 20 minutes, interview windows began to open up and numbers were... read complete review
