That part should be easy! When I went through immigration I still took 3 times as long as everyone else because he was writing a bunch of stuff on my landing card and wanted to see my husband passport since he was traveling with me. But it was easy. He looked at my stamp showing I'd been denied entry previously and didn't ask/comment about it at all. You shouldn't have any trouble now that you've got your visa.

Congratulations!

Good to know :) Its not a huge airport so should be quick.

I had a guy from the US do that to my landing card coming from gatwick, and he asked me where Id been for the last week etc...made me feel like I was doing something wrong coming home!

That is fantastic news.  I was so worried when you had that payment mixup.  But everything turned out great - and fast too!

Start counting down!   ;D ;D

So was I! I was really wondering what would happen. But the guy that handled the mixup also handled my application, and I am very happy with him he was really nice on the phone, extremely helpful.

Im not sure how to go about giving him a proper pat on the back for handling it so well and expediently. He was never anything but nice when I have talked to some really rude people there before.

Im wondering if he felt bad for the mixup and decided lets give the girl a break lol I doubt it (I know they have certain procedures to follow) but I am really surprised it was sooo fast, no interview or anything :)
