Interview in El Salvador Changes

[karla5001 0]

"Beginning March 1, 2008, all Immigrant Visa applicants will be required to appear at the Embassy in San Salvador for two separate Immigrant Visa appointments. Applicants will be scheduled for a morning appointment to submit the required case documentation, and will automatically be scheduled for a second appointment one week later in the afternoon for an interview with the Consular Official.

Example schedule:

Monday, May 5th, 7:30 am – First appointment for document submission

Monday, May 12th, 12:30 pm (noon) – Second appointment for interview with Consular Official

All applicants, regardless of whether their appointments were scheduled by the National Visa Center or the Visa Information Center, will be required to appear for both appointments in order for their Immigrant Visa case to be processed.

To accommodate U.S. and local holidays and Embassy closings, an applicant’s second appointment may be scheduled two weeks following the first appointment. Applicants may contact the Visa Information Center for details, or check the list of Embassy holidays.

Once we make an appointment we will notify you or your registered agent by mail, or by e-mail if you so choose. You can check on your appointment time, or request changes by calling our regional Visa Information Center."

Hi Karla:

This is very strange!!!!!!!!! but well what can you expect from ES embassy? It seems to me that they're so back up,they need more time to check the paperwork more careful,just a thought!!! It doesn't make sense thou because NVC reviews all the documentation before sending to the embassy.

Anyway just Hang in there remenber you're almost there!!!!!

God bless

Im still wondering why they are doing this ... ... but you know... is the US embassy.. and I guess they feel like they need to super check everything .. but... one time a friend of mine said.. and i think she is right... that when you have a real relationship/marriage you have nothng to worry about.. and they can make you go to 5 interviews and you will still get your visa cause you are prooving them that you have something real.... sorry.. i got carried away

Hopefully you will have your interview dates soon

Blesses!!
