Hi @sky88

 

That's awesome, we are also waiting for our IL. We got DQd on January 21st and still waiting. Hopefully we hear back soon! 

 

Can you explain your timeline or when you got DQd, I'm confused based off your profile's timeline!

 I am really surprised you have not received your interview yet. Have you tried to reach out to the embassy?

I have but it's impossible to reach someone we can actually speak to. Last time they emailed me saying that the case is not in the embassy yet. Basically until you don't have an appointment it's still at the NVC. NVC, says they can't predict when we will get an appointment

It should not take this long. There are always visas available for IR of USC. 

 

Send an inquiry. Hope this help!

Hi, 

 

I have sent multiple, they keep replying with the custom messages "basically wait, we can't predict, blah blah". I contacted the consulate and they told me they have available appointments for July, I asked if they could communicate with NVC and help me schedule. Then they told me they recommend I wait until the NVC schedules me. I don't know what else to do, I feel like this is extremely unfair and not normal procedure. They keep blaming one another and they don't fix the issue.

I am so sorry! But why don't you try to email them again? Attached your DQ email along with your citizenship or passport. Kindly ask them to schedule an appointment asap.

 

The worst they can say is NO. I encourage you to try again. 

 

Please let me know.

Yes, thank you for the advice! I am continuing to email them and sending inquiries to NVC. Hopefully, this leads to an appointment soon!
