Wow this is awesome! I'm going to try this week and have my husband try as well juuuust to check :) It's worth a shot right?

It appears NVC may be closed today due to the weather along the east coast. I think we will try later this week. Let's hope we all get good news soon :thumbs:

No news on our interview....the operator told me last night to call back around the third week of March as they ONLY schedule interviews the first two weeks (at least we got that clarified now!) So I'll be calling back & crossing my fingers to get an April interview! If not...at least May isn't THAT far away right? :)

The last few people through MTL have been 100+ days. Cases completed in Jan are now getting dates around the end of April... judging by that unfort I think we will be looking at end of May Moosker! :crying:

We tried again last night - same story. :whistle: So it looks like May but it would be nice just to have the date. Maybe we will hear more in the next two weeks. Good luck everyone!

MAY??? What r u talking about? Whenever we call at NVC, they say they are done with scheduling march interview...so ours should be in April .... Let pray to God for it...

Good Luck...

Sonia

It all depends on how busy each particular consulate/embassy is. Unfortunately for those of us waiting for Montreal we most likely are looking at May. As A & M posted the wait for Montreal is close to 3 months after NVC completion. For example, one filer recently had a Montreal interview date for mid-April scheduled and their case was completed mid-January! I hope you don't have to wait that long and an April interview comes your way! Good luck.

I know there are a number of people who have their cases completed before me, waiting for an interview at the Mumbai consulate, I hope they can squeeze me in for April. Hopefully we all find out early next week.

Q,

I am sure you'll be in april interview batch as well. I dont see why they wont giving you april interview date even though there are many waiting for interview date from last month. For me personally I dont care what april interview date I get since I already have march interview date for k3 which I'll be using to obtain CR1.

Good luck to all who are still waiting for interview date.
