Got a new person at the DoS, but no luck with the interview yet.

*sigh*

Montreal Interviewer: "What do you have in common with each other?"

Peachey: "We're REALLY weird."

Montreal Interviewer (incredulously to me): "Do you agree with that?"

<I think back to several days before the interview. Driving through the country, passing a field with cows...>

Peachey: "MOOOO! MOOOOO! Does this make me weird?"

Me: "No, well yes. Here, let me roll down the windows so they can hear you better!"

Peachey: "MOOOOO!!!!"

<back to interview>

Me: "Yes, yes I do."

Can I butt in here and ask a question? How do the time lines work when one compares NVC getting a K1 3rd package and a CR1 completing at NVC?

I'm just curious as to how that works -- I've get to figure it out...

Thanks everyone...

Hi Lgg,

We don't really know as NVC schedules the interviews for CR1 and the actual consulate schedules K1s.

You might have to call NVC and ask that question.

Yeah, this us true eh? Well, it's no biggie... I don't feel like calling those guys right now -- they only depress the hell out of me. I can do without knowing for now....

:)

I also realized too that when I do call, if I ask a question like that, they automatically start reading the 'blurb' to me... its' annoying and answers none of my questions... .
