Re: DCF London Processing
Didnt Embassy say, despite Lockdown, they still were striving to do the job in 90 days? From the date you received your email of correct filing plus the days of Lockdown plus 5 weeks (35 days) does that add up to 90 working days?
Also I guess there has been a reduction in firms to be processed maybe due to restrictions on who can enter US at this time?

Re: DCF London Processing
Good friend Ian-mstn is retired from these boards but I recall his frequent comment that tracking processing times was âthe path to madness.â
Among immigration lawyers it was often noted the two most frequent questions from clients were âhow long?â and âwhere is my work permit?â In 40 years I found out that I was almost always wrong. (Too short or too long). This not meant as any criticism of concern over time lines, but sometimes the best answer is â it happens when it happens.â

Re: DCF London Processing
Just as an update, we received an e-mail from the London Office today confirming that they had received our petition, but are currently unable to process the credit card payments.
The e-mail also says that "Once processed, we will send you a follow-up email to confirm that the payment has been taken and to provide the anticipated adjudication time. Under current circumstances, we intend to conduct the I-130 adjudication by July, if not sooner."
We are by no means in the clear yet, but this correspondence is a promising sign that progress is being made....

Remember that you need the Police certificate in order to get your medical. You need to bring it to Knightsbridge.

Re: DCF London Processing
That was actually one of the first documents I was able to obtain - ARCO were great. Weâve been able to gather all of the pieces of evidence weâll need for the next stage, but the only thing thatâs missing are the tax transcripts. Itâs currently impossible to get hold of these if you filed from abroad as the IRS system doesnât accept a foreign address...
We are still waiting for word. Given what is going on in the World right now we aint too fussed......though it would still be nice to hear somethingđ
The thought of travelling to London is not a good thought but hey ho.....
