American Embassy Help!!!! SOS

Hi Guys was wondering if any of you guys knew London well because when I go To Embassy I got 2 hours and a half to find it from Victoria station, where abouts is it located and whats the fastest way of getting there! I was thinking Tube but where does one get off?

Many Thanks Mark xxx

 

lol Mark u make things sound so serious u plonker!

tube wise u need to get to Oxford Circus, then its a straight run from there

go on www.thetube.com it'll tell u the tube route if u fill in from victoria to there

and multimap.co.uk is good if u pop the embassy postcode in there u can see how far it is

mark ur be fine its not difficult to find at all... even i found it and i have worse sense of direction i think u can look up a map on the internet... The embassy used to send one but they havent this time. U guys i am such a plonker im trying to fill out the form right now and im not sure what they mean by state/province are they meaning like england/scotland or staffordshire?

Leave it blank Mindy says its no importance State/ province is American

 

I have just finished the form and i put state/province for my passport question as Wales and for place of birth and address i put county.

the Embassy is off Oxford street or thereabouts, i think u can get a direct tube there from victoria but dnt hold me to that!

Cheers Mark and Bry! ive done the form now!
Left the state/province thing blank...

The closest station is bond street on the underground, can't remember what line that is on though. From there the embassy is about a 5 min walk or 1 min sprint (personal experience!). Its dead easy really, grap a map off multimap.co.uk like sara said. And just remember to take stuff to keep you entertained while you're there!!

 

Cheers craig-E-d thats helped!!! how long is it expected to take

 

When i had my interview in 2003 it took 2 and a half hours... its well boring... dunno if its changed but they called the numbers randomly... so u had to keep watching the screen... so u can be waiting anything from 45 minutes to 4/5 hrs if ur really unlucky!
The embassy said allow 3 hrs on the apt sheet...
Though yummy said allow 4.
I think Jo said its a lot quicker in belfast though...

Mine took forever!! Only 45 mins for the first interview, but then had to wait another 3 hours for the second part. There were around 300 people when i went in, and when my number was called there were only six people left!!! I was so worried that i had been rejected! All good in the end though  ;D
