hello all... hope you re having a nice weekend

i just wanted to ask if the petitioner's birth certificate is needed at the time of the interview?? please advice

thanks :)

i guess it`s needed because in that package 3 have a list for where your petitioner get the medical examination and the package 4 it have your petitioner interview letter and what supposed the petitioner have for the interview there`s some basics like ( marriage certificate ,birth certificate, and if you or your petitioner got divorced have to have this certificate too + some evidence for ongoing relationship )

Good Luck :thumbs:

Hey everybody, for those who already did this...is it easy to talk to a supervisor at NVC?

Is there any magic words you have to say so they transfer you easily? ;)

After my case is complete my husband is gonna call and talk to a supervisor about our K3 interview, and the possibility of using it for our CR1, but the operator already told him it's impossible to do...but we are still trying, who knows right? But like the guides say, we should talk to a supervisor, any advice hot to get a hold of them?

Thanks! ^_^

Hi everybody

My husband and I decide to stop calling NVC everyday... in this 3 days we receive the same $#&/"&!! answer about interviews...

So we'll wait for the email or call again on may 1st, Every time we hear the same answer it's like a torture :angry: They seem robots...

I still have hope about all of us... and i'll be happy if one of us is scheduled this month or before the 2nd week of may. At least One!!

I let you know if I receive the interview email or if i can't wait and call again to NVC :blush:

Have a nice day and Good luck for us!! B)

I'll keep calling that slightly high-talker AVR robot each morning, just out of habit, and in case he has something new to say. He's been very good at updating each stage in our case. I've also grown accustomed to his perky little voice, and sometimes wonder who he is ... :star:

Thanks! ^_^

The only way anything can come out of this is if ur consulate agrees to it and requests ur file from NVC. After case complete it is really out of the NVC hands. OUr files are simply sitting there waiting to get abjudicated to a foreign consulate officer. Until the consulate is ready to receive ur file, NVC will hold it hostage :bonk:
