London, United Kingdom | Review on November 3, 2006: | pja002

Rating: | Review Topic: IR-1/CR-1 Visa
Arrived 9.30 for 10.30 appointment. Interaction with Embassy staff was, for the most part, polite, helpful, and not intimidating at all. (there is always an exception to each rule and this was provided by the "guardian of the gate" who was British and pretty miserable. Others have described him as jovial - presumably that was a different employee on a different day. Anyway, once in the building at 10.20 I waited for my number to be called and this occurred at 10.35. Handed over all requested paperwork to a pleasant American woman who said it all looked OK and I should wait for the number to be called again for interview. This happened at 10.50 and I spent 5 minutes with another pleasant American lady who made one comment and asked two questions before getting me to swear I was telling the truth and then said "you're good to go". I was sitting in Starbucks by 11.05 feeling very much relieved and wondering if my wife would want me to 'phone her at 5am Texas time to tell her the good news!
