Timeline Search for CR-1/IR-1

Currently, you can only see the time between NOA2 and interview for a certain consulate. Would it be possible to see the average time between NVC case complete and interview? The way it is now, it's hard to tell how long it will take after your case in complete at NVC, and when an interview is scheduled.

A statistic like this would be meaningless. Every consulate is different. Moscow might take 3 months, and Gwi...Gwo...Gw...China might take 6 months. They are all different, and taking an average wouldn't tell you anything about your case.

It would not be meaningless. NVC schedules the interview for CR-1/IR-1 in most consulate. When you do a search, you can filter on the consulate. If I was going through Bangkok, I could care less about Gwi...Gwo...Gw...China. I would however care about Bangkok.

Ahhhh...so you're saying you want each consulate tracked? I misunderstood, I thought you wanted an average of all consulates. What you're asking for could be helpful.

Edit: Pretty sure NVC doesn't schedule any interviews. It's the consulate that schedules the interview.

NVC schedules CR-1/IR-1 interviews for 95% of the consulates. The only that I know where NVC does not do it, is Guangzhao. Without the timeline info, it's not real clear what's takes precedence K or CR-1/IR-1. The consulate schedules the K visas. Since the timelines only show time between NOA2 and interview, it is difficult to tell If a case was stuck at NVC, or if it took them a long time to actually schedule the interview. If you could see the time between case complete and the interview date, it would be very helpful for IR-1/CR-1 filers.

Ahhh, gotcha. Interesting, I wasn't aware NVC scheduled IR-1/CR-1. So yeah, seems like this kind of info would provide some helpful data.
