looking on here now, most people got their visa without an interview in around 4 to 6 wks, but when i appiled for my wifes visa at start of jan 2005, she had to go for an interview and we didnt get the visa til end of march.. and thats after i at them.

but it looks like now most dont get called for an interview and the waiting time is shorter. its a risk thou.

good luck
