NVC and scheduled interwiew

[calamitka 0]

I'm just curious about everyone opinion how exactly NVC schedules the interwiews for CR/IR

We know the scheduling takes place in the second week of the month, it is extended sometimes to the third week.

So, case appears as complete and then.....

...and then you wait untill the 2nd week of the next month and keep calling them every day to find out I was told to call back on the 3rd week but was scheduled for the interview on Wed of the 2nd week

good luck

Calamitka,

Here is my experience:

Case complete: Feb 12, 2008

I called NVC on Feb 20 to find out if a interview date was set, and I was told that since the case was completed while they were setting interview dates for March, it will not be included in this month's scheduling.

Later, on Feb 26, the case was forwarded to consulate. I e-mailed consulate to ask for appointment date, and I was told NVC mailed out appointment letter on Feb 21st (date on letter is 21st, but actual post date was Feb 26). Consulate quickly responded with date of interview: Apr 15, 2008.

What this shows is that NVC does not necessarily schedule appointments for one month at a time, but more. In this case, even though I was told that my application was not being considered for scheduling during the second week of Feb, it was in fact considered and a date was assigned on 21st Feb (which is towards the end of 3rd week)! In Feb NVC was scheduling both March and Apr 2008 interview dates. This is a good news that it is not necessarily tied to second week only and that if you don't make cut for next month, they still schedule you for the following month.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Sanjiv Patel

I just have a question, how is it NVC is scheduling the interview? Isn't it NVC completes the file and sends it to the embassy then embassy sets the interview date after reviewing all the paper. Has something changed in this process?

Thanks!
