Embassy Review : |
My interview was at the London US Embassy on the 19th November 2015 at 8:30am.
I had to travel for 2 and a half hours to get to London. First thing I did was to look for a car park. There is a car park near the Grosvenor House and it is called Q-Park. The address is: Park Ln, London W1K 7AN. I had to pay around £22 pounds for 4 hours which wasn't too bad.
I got to London around 7:30am, parked my car and made my way to the Embassy. It took me around 6-10 mins to get to the Embassy by foot. There was already a huge queue of people already waiting outside of the Embassy. I went up to one of the security guards that were letting people in and I asked him if I still have to line up (I heard that I didn't have to since I was going to have a K1 visa interview). He still told me to go and line up so I did.
One lady started rearranging the queue into three separate ones and then she asked everybody if anyone is going for immigration visa interview. I followed her along with few other people to the small white tent outside of the entrance. She asked for my interview confirmation letter and my passport. She checked it, wrote something down and told me to go through the security.
The security scanned my bag, my phone and my watch. As soon as they did this, I was free to go through to the Embassy.
As I entered the Embassy, I saw a gentleman sitting at a desk. I greeted him and he asked for my passport and my interview letter. He gave me a ticket number and told me to go and sit down at the waiting area. The waiting area was packed full of people. At the front , there was a huge screen with ticket numbers popping up every second letting people know which window they need to go to.
You have to keep a close eye on the screen because the numbers come up fast and you don't want to miss yours. You will hear a beeping sound every time a ticket number comes up on the board.
I had to wait around 35 mins until my ticket showed up on the board. I walked over to the window as instructed being greeted by another kind gentleman. He asked me how my day is going and proceeded to looking through his computer trying to search for the documents he needed. He told me he needed to go and fetch my case so he stood up and left me for about 5 minutes. As soon as he came back , he told me to confirm my address and asked for my phone number. He then asked for the instructions page which was needed to confirm that I have payed the final fee for the visa. He asked me when I would like to go to United States and I told him As soon as possible. He wrote it down on the documents. He needed my finger prints so I had to have my finger prints scanned for both of my hands. He then asked for my passport , my birth certificate, police certificate, 1 photo (I got this back), i-134 then he asked for supporting evidence. I handed in my fiancee's pay stubs, income return forms and letter from his employer. As soon as he was done checking the documents, he gave me an envelope and told me to go back to the waiting room and wait for my ticket number to come up again.
I sat down and waited for about an hour before seeing my number come up on the screen.
It was time for my interview. I took a deep breath and walked over to the window as instructed. There was a lady sat at the desk and as soon as I came over she greeted me with a smile. I had to take an oath and confirm that everything I am about to say is the truth and only the truth. I confirmed.
She began asking me questions one by one , one by one. I was not able to catch my breath. Some questions have really taken me back but I answered with ease. She asked me about 10-15 questions mostly about, where does my Fiance live? whats his address? when and where was he born? what does he do for a living? what do you do for a living? how old are you? when and where you born? etc. She was looking through my pictures and relationship evidence for a while and kept typing everything onto the computer. After 10 minutes, she announced that my visa has been approved!
I was thrilled with joy.
I am overly happy with the service!
Good luck to all of you who are waiting on their interviews!!!

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
