Good luck to everyone tomorrow, I'm sure you'll all get approved... I can't believe our lil theory came true & all the interview dates are rolling in =)

Congratulations to all those with the new interview dates :dance:

My pup & I are still waiting for our interview date however =( Found out from DOS line yesterday that the embassy finally received our packet 3, even though it got there special delivery on the 17th!! Will call the extortion line & see if I can have requested date in FEB. Any advice appreciated btw... I couldn't wait like Derek, (safe journey btw mate), I have a flight booked for the end of the month. Already tried emailing the consular, but got no reply. What is this code fellow VJers have mentioned? Should I ask for it or will they assign me one wehn I call? I'm assuming it's different from the LDN number I already have...

ps Debz, I'm sure you'll be fine... :D stay strong... it's nearly over...

Just call the extortion line and tell them that you need to email the Embassy about your interview date and they'll give you the code to put in the subject line. Good luck. :thumbs:

This may be a dumb question but I just called the NVC line (603 334 0700) to see if the London embassy had received my packet 3 and I was told they have no embassy related information at all. But people keep saying they get information from the DOS about packets 3 and 4. Is that a different place and telephone number all together from NVC?

Thanks!

I'm getting sooooo impatient - I can't believe i've held out this long and these last weeks are killers...... xx

I called the Department of State to get Embassy related info. 203-663-1225 press 1, then 0 and then waiting in silence for a "visa specialist" to pick up. Usually took me about 10 minutes to get someone. You'll need to give them your beneficiary's DOB or full name, and your LND case number (if you've gotten it. I think they'll take the number that USCIS assigned you as well).

Thank you Gillian... I don't have to call though! I have good news & a date to add to the interview list.

I am SO happy... I just got home & D called to say that the DOS line told him we have our interview & the letter was mailed out to me today.

Did I mention I'm feeling on top of the world at the moment?!?! :D :D :D

Please add B&D, (yes we are actually called B&D) to the list please. The interview has been scheduled for the 13th of Feb at 9am...

13 is a lucky number for me, so I'm feeling very positive, despite the fact that Sunday the 17th is 40 days wrt police report for us. I hope I get it before the 13th!!!

If I don't, can I send it in after?

Can't wait to hear how people did today... Bring on the red approvals...
