Started out rather bumpy, they requested more info. Visa would be issued upon receipt of that info. However the courier took there time delievering it to the London Embassy, took them 2 weeks to FINALLY issue the Visa. But overall not a bad experience.

I cant believe how painfree it was.
We (hubby and me) got there well early at 8:30am-ish and after a little wait we were let into the embassy where I was given the number 006 and told to take a seat and wait.
After a wait of about 10 mins I was called to window number 1 and a really nice woman (who I couldnt understand) took the pics and visa payment slips and although she was asking for other stuff I didnt know what she was saying so I just handed stuff over in the order that I thought she wanted.
She then gave me the courier slip and told us to sit back down.
No sooner had I sat down when I was called back to window 1 as she had forgoten to give me my xray (that had been sent over to the embassy from the Doctors in Knightsbridge).
Anyway we sat back down and after 10 mins or so we were called to window 13 where some right nice friendly american bloke was waiting for us.
He asked a couple of questions like "Did I enter the US on the VWP" to wh... read complete review

A stressful day - not helped by it being a week or so after 2 sets of terrorist disruptions in London.
A reasonably well organised set-up at the Embassy. I was early for my 9am appointment so scooted straight in. However, after taking my ticket I still had an hour's wait for the initial paperwork check (always worrisome). This was not made any easier by a typically Brit uncommunicative member of the Embassy clerical staff.
After that and after becoming mesmerised by the screen counting down my next window visit, I had a quick snack from the Embassy snack bar (perfectly adequate but a little dear). Called through for my formal interview at about 12.20pm and a very amiable American gent went through a few cursory questions about the papers (I can't recall what he aksed in all the excitement. He then welcomed me to the USA (slightly dramatic I thought, but quaintly colonial), told me about arranging for the delivery of the Visa and hey presto by 12.40pm ... read complete review

Interview was very easy and painless. Alot of waiting around, i think it took about 3 hours. The interview itself was no more than 3 mins. After being approved i left the embassy thinking my passport would be following soon after but a couple of hours later i received a phone call from the officer that interviewed me and he forgot to take my medical from me so he said as soon as i sent that to him he would mail it out to me. He kept his word and i had my passport back within 3 days.

Well here is my interview experience. I went down to London on the Monday evening and stayed at a friends place. Tuesday got to the US Embassy around 9.15am, someone checked my appointment letter (note, those with appointments more than an hour later have to wait in a second queue until time). Then I was off through the x-ray machine and a long walk around the buildings perimeter. My ticket was number 16 and about 20 minutes later I saw the lovely Chinese woman at desk 1. She took my paperwork, saw that my fiancée earned above the poverty level, asked when I intend to fly and then said no problems here so go sit down and wait for the interview.
Another 20 minutes and I was called to a lady at desk 15. First she took my finger prints, then I swore to her (‘I do’), she looked at the medical and asked how I met my fiancée (said 'how lovley to my responce') and if I'd met her partents, and viola; she said ‘you're done here’. I said ‘what that's it’? She... read complete review
