Well yesterday when i called the USEM twice, both guys told me that our case was in their system, but wasn't "qualified" for an interview date.

They both told me to call back in 2 weeks to inquire again.

There was no way i was gonna wait that long, so i called them again just now and my girl has an interview date on Sept. 2nd!!!!

FINALLY we feel like we can see the finish line! I just wanted to let yall know to keep calling them to check daily because obviously it can make a difference!

Congrats!!

Just curious. Is the September 2 a date they gave you or a date you picked? Does it mean you have to go to the embassy exactly on that date?

Good luck on your fiancee medical and interview. She will make it I'm sure. Everyone of us are desperate in this visa process. My husband and I are very frustrated also with the case of my son.

"Congrats!!

I picked the date. They told her to be there by 7 am sharp on the 2nd.

"well my fiance called last monday they said that they got the package from the NVC last aug 7 and he was trying to make an appointment but was told to call in 2 weeks..

can i do the scheduling??\

can i have the # to call??"

Keep calling them daily if you can. One day they said wait 2 weeks, the next they gave me an interview date. You will pick the date from a list they will offer you. Calling from USA the number is 888-877-9888. Follow the voice prompts, have your visa card ready, and set up a PIN # account to talk to a real person for the scheduling.

Good luck yall. :thumbs:
