I got my visa!!
« on: March 18, 2006, 01:47:31 AM »
YAY! I got my visa.  It went so smooth and it only took about ten minutes.  I was really organized, which helped!  I recommend anyone applying to get a binder and divide things to make it simple when the person is asking for them.
She was really nice and I was surprised how easy it was.  I didn't realize that was the appointment until she said I was getting my visa.  I thought she was just checking to make sure I had everything before I had my "real" appointment.
In any case, I have my visa and I'm leaving at the end of May :)  Now, I just have to worry about the Pets Scheme! Thanks for everyone's help!

Congratulations! :)
When I am grown-up I will understand how BEAUTIFUL it feels to administrate my life effectively.

Until then I will continue to TORCH all correspondence that bores me and to dance NAKED over the remnants of its still glowing embers.

Did you go to the British Consulate in Chicago?  That's where I went and the woman I had was extremely friendly as well. She was pleased to see everything organized so i bet that helped you out quite a bit!  Congratulations!!

Yes, I went to the consulate in Chicago and had a really helpful woman as well.  She was so friendly!  I'm so used to nasty & arrogant immigration officers at the airport...I was really happy and lucky to have had her! :)

Thanks for everyone's congrats!

Congrats to you, really very happy for you!!!  Keep your fingers crossed for a nice person in CH for me.....
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.
