K3 Interview in Amman Scheduled

[esmatsgirl 1]

I too.....like Lulu...got a K3 interview at Amman this weekend...got an email from the Amman embassy to inform me of an interview on Nov 3 at 7:30am.

This is way far away (sort of) and I thought it would be sooner.....but the good part is I am feeling some relief because there is some closure in getting an actual date....

Still waiting on the I-130 CR1 interview...which was complete at NVC on June 26 and has been waiting for an interview to be scheduled since then.

The NVC got my approved K3 from USCIS on August 1....they transferred it over to the Amman embassy on August 5. By August 11 my interview was scheduled by the Amman embassy and a package was mailed to my home in the US (I have not received it yet). That was so fast...because all NVC had to do was turn it over to the embassy.

Now, even with a completed case on June 26, it is August 18 today and there is still no interview for the CR1 scheduled....we didn't make the list for August interviews...now I am waiting for them to complete their "once a month during the 2nd week of the month" scheduling of interviews. They are understaffed or there is some sort of bottleneck in the process somewhere when it comes to embassies that are on a different time schedule?? I don't know what it is. I thought maybe its because the Amman embassy is possibly smaller...they have limited capacity but if thats the case, why did they schedule me immediately for Nov 3? The NVC tells me that the Amman Embassy supplies them with a set amount of interview appointments each month....they work with what they give them. I guess they reserve the rest of the time back in Amman for interviews scheduled via their infopass system for all other types of visas for walk in people in Amman. They need to give more interview slots up for CR1 visas if this is the case.

I just called NVC and they told me they haven't finished scheduling for the month of September yet....they did the same thing last month. They told me to call back on Friday for a possible update to our case. If the CR1 doesn't get scheduled before Nov 3rd then the K3 interview appointment will be changed to CR1.

Its a "ways" away but at least we got a date to work with now. Our plans to get married here on the same day as we did in Jordan last year, October 29 are not going to be able to go forward....who would have known...it was going to take more than a year for him to be allowed to come and be with his wife.

Anyway...looking on the bright side...that year is almost through and now I can get excited!!! I am so happy my Sweetheart will be here to keep me warm this winter...and then for the rest of my life!!

'jackie step away from the computer....'

December.....I will cling to the hope for a dec interview. It's all I got. Hey Dec is better than say..........Febuary, right?

Hope you get out of nvc. I'm just heading in. On second thought, I hope I get out of NVC. I feel robbed, I didn't get the k3 option.

Congrats!! That is SO awesome!

Did the embassy tell you that they will change the K3 to a CR1? NVC? When will your 130 petition go to Amman? Or is it already there?

Best wishes and congrats again!
