Whiles browsing the net today,I found the Department of State's contact number which I can call to find out if an interview has been scheduled for me since because the DOS knows when an interview is scheduled. So I called the number and spoke with a lady,I gave her my name,your name and my case number.She then told me that the embassy has sent a Call In letter to the applicant on October 13th 2010,so I should wait for the letter before going to the embassy.

How long will it take for me to to get that letter?

For now, there's no need to visit the embassy because even if you go there, u would not be permitted to enter without a written permit. What I will suggest you do is that email the Accra embassy (It takes about 2-4 weeks to get a reply). They will then reply with a permit in your email requesting you to pick up your interview date if you have still not received what they had already sent. With mine, if it had not been the email i sent, I guess I would have still been waiting. They actually replied to confirm that they had mailed my letter 3 weeks earlier and as at now I hv still not received that particular letter and I dont think i'll ever receive it. I wont blame the embassy for this but Ghana Post. As I said earlier, send them an email and if you hv done so, just wait for a reply and your case will be solved. make sure you use the appropriate email address.

Good Luck. :thumbs:

In God We Trust..!

Along with Steel, If I hadnt emailed them I would still be waiting for that letter they sent.

Good luck with the email it does take time for them to respond. Hopefully this means things are moving at Accra!

Called up DOS and was told that my case is still Administrative Processing Review. I don't know what this means. Should I call NVC to get some clarifications even though my case was already completed at their level? I'm quite confused. Hope someone could shed light on this. :help:
