Thanks!

Do you know how long it is taking on average right now? I tried to search through VJ to see if I could find anything, but I didn't. I know at one time they were saying 4-5 months. I hope it's sooner now!

And I don't need to send an empty xpresspost mailer with it, do I? I mean, it's nothing that I need to get back right away right? It's just informing me of the interview date?

Hey Daisylynn, long time no see, glad to see things are moving along :)

Right now they are taking about 2 months when NVC is scheduling. For instance my Husband's file was completed on Dec 4th and his interview is scheduled for February.

I don't think you need to send them an express post mailer

Hi trailmix! Yeah, it's been busy around here with 3 little ones. And we were just playing the waiting game, waiting for dh's police cert.

But now things are on the move again :)

Congrats on getting your interview date. I haven't read through many posts yet, so I haven't come across that. I hope all goes well! :thumbs:
