Good luck to your fiancee on the upcoming interview. Here's hoping there are no issues that can't be overcome.

Re: After too many months of waiting...
i dont think its sunk in yet.... i finally think i've got someone on my side going through this ( up there ) because everything has almost nearly just gone....right with this. now we just have the interview and getting him back here to contend with, then the second leg of our journey should be much easier doing it together...

You are kidding, right? The K1 is the simpliest, easiest visa to obtain. The AOS can be a nightmare, plain and simple. Multiple forms, exams, biometrics, work permits, travel permits, social security number, etc.

I know I enjoyed the AOS portion more, even though it was more paperwork, because Sadegh was here with me.

Jim was with me, but all he did was sign his name :-(
Can't imagine that AP will find it easier since her fiancee is suffering from OCD. Can imagine that will make the completion and submission of the forms a possible hell on earth ... praying that's not the case AP.

Re: After too many months of waiting...
My fiance's OCD wont affect the paperwork he just washes his hands umpteen times a day and picks imaginary black specs out of mashed potatoes...it's all good!
I am just grateful that we will be doing it together...I've gone through this process during my pregnancy and without any aid from anyone else ( other than BE members ) so it will be a relief to have him here to double check or remember something I've forgotten.
Oh... I cant figure it out as of yet, but my fiance is looking at taking a bus or train down to london the day before and putting up in a hotel the night before, can anyone assist me in finding a good rate at a hotel and possibly direct me to a website that i can find fares for the bus or train from manchester to london? My googling skills have escaped me at the moment!

Try National Express for trains to London. My husband and I got a great deal on trains from Scotland to London from them. Also try Otel.com for hotels.

Re: After too many months of waiting...
agentpeppermint, do a quick search thru this forum; people add a good deal hotel in here every now and again.
Congrats on the interview notice and best wishes for a speedy reunion!
