MY wife's ir1 case was complete at the NVC level on March 8. We are now waiting for an interview date and should be getting an email from NVC any minute now. My next question is, now what?

What else do we need to do in preparation for the interview? When do we get the medical checkup? Anything else?

Will the interview email explain everything we need to do?

I am hoping to get an interview setup in April since I just learned from a VJ member yesterday that the 8th - 12th is when NVC schedules them for the following month. It looks likes we made it just in time ( I pray ).

Thanks everyone for all your help. And many thanks to the founder of Visajourney.com. You don't know how much help you have been to my wife and I and to many others that frequent this site daily, even hourly.

Will the interview email explain everything we need to do? YES IT WILL.

When do we get the medical checkup?GO TO USA EMBASSY WEB PAGE AT COUNTRY WHERE INTERVIEW WILL TAKE PLACE , ALL INFORMATION ARE THERE.

Anything else? ALL EVIDENCE OF YOUR RELATIONSHIP,PICTURE, PHONE BILLS, BANK STATEMENT AND SO ON,, MORE IS BETTER.

Once NVC ship your document to embassy, and when they arrive to embassy, call embassy and ask them is anything missing , and they will tell you,,

You could track you document on DHL REFERENCE TRACING,

Thanks everyone. I just received my interview email this morning.

Now it's time to get everything ready again and gather all the photos from two years ago leading up to now. We had already gone through the interview for my wife's K3 visa. Now getting the IR1. FUN.

Not yet.

We will schedule the medical close to the interview date. Apparently ( and suprisingly ), the CR1/IR1 visa is valid for six months from the date of medical checkup.
