How long for getting interview date

[ML1 0]

Wondering on the waiting time that some of you have gone through... From time of sending all forms to time you got your interview letter??

Was a little bit taken aback with mine. Hope it gives you some hope: sent packet III end of October and they signed for it 1st Nov. Had my medical 3rd November. Was worried it'd take them ages to log packet III and perhaps medical results would 'get lost'. Naturally being a very Type A personality I rang every couple of days excited to see if they'd uploaded or opened my Packet III. Even called DOS, they all said it takes about four weeks to get to it and load the info up and then about another two to three weeks for them to give an interview date. Not sure if it is usual, but certainly what I was repeatedly told. I was worried we'd not get an interview date until January and I have two children due to start school there so you can imagine how on tenterhooks I was! Anyway, called Monday this week 'No ma'am, they've logged your medical results now but still not your packet three'. Then yesterday out of the bkue I had an email giving me an interview date on 2nd December. They MIGHT surprise you. By their reckoning it should have been weeks after opening packet three before getting my interview. maybe I just got lucky, who knows?! Either way, no complaints here! Hope you have similar luck with yours

Thanks! My fiance does not have a medical date. He rang them up, but said for him to give them a call back when he had an interview date. I hope that is not a problem and delaying things a bit! He sent forms on 21st of October. We hope to hear from them soon, as we we're hoping for a date in mid December before snow comes and he might have trouble heading south do to train cancellations. Thanks again for all info.

He sent forms on 21st of October. He does not have a medical date yet. They said for him to call back till he had interview date. All the best to us all!!

I'm confused about the need for a medical date?? I didn't have an interview date, all I was told you needed was your LND number. When I rant KNightsbridge Doctors they just asked for my LND number and I said my interview 'would be in a few weeks' which it seemed ti was, and is. perhaps in the lead up to Christmas they're busier?? Most people I know do the medical thought beFORE they get an interview date.

If you're a K1 or DCF in London, they have to receive the medical results at the embassy before they will assign an interview. You're going to continue to wait until you have your medical exam. Call them back and get a medical appointment. Perhaps the person answering the phone had you confused with IR1/CR1 who are assigned a date by NVC when their extensive processing is completed at NVC.

Here's the K1 instructions London expected you to read. Read Step Three carefully. http://london.usembassy.gov/iv_15.html
