Hi to all! First, Congratulations to all visa approvals!!! :thumbs:

I guess i will cancel our June10 interview, please remove me from the June interviews posted. :( Sorry to add my sad story in this happy thread...

My husband was first scheduled for interview by NVC on June 10, 2011. I called Manila Embassy right away if its possible to move the schedule at least few days after coz my husband's medical result wont be due till June 10. They said I cant schedule until his medical is done. I was trying to reschedule coz im afraid that if June 10 comes & my hubby's medical is done, there wont be available slots for June anymore. That day came & my hubby's medical is finally completed with a good result, we immediately tried to schedule another appointment, unfortunately, the only available sched is August 3. So, my husband just took that slot & was advised that he could reschedule online, he can just check the website for earlier dates @ ustraveldocs.com. Last night, I logged in to the website: I was able to get in easily using the password they sent my husband via email after they scheduled him for August 3, but I got disappointed with this website, in order for me to re-schedule or even check availabiltiy, I have to cancel our prior schedule first (Aug3), I got scared all of a sudden, thinking that if I do that I might lose the schedule & be moved to a farther date, so with my fingers crossed, I continued, canceled the previous sched & was directed to their calendar which is very limited, it was only showing 3 months: August- October, & the only available dates were August 4-12, OMG! Its not even showing the month of June or July even nothing is available those months. Im so disappointed, so now instead of August 3, wanting to have an earlier schedule, I have no choice but to move to August 4 , coz thats the earliest slot they have. I'l call them next week, Im afraid to cancel our August 4 schedule again & be moved to a farther date, id rather talk to an operator & have them do the rescheduling for me.

My husband & I was blaming ourselves that this has happened, it feels like we could have at least done something to prevent further delay. We had been proactive with this whole process, but at the end of everything, its turning out like this. When I called the embassy at first to reschedule, is it better that I just lied & told them that we wont make it to the June 10 schedule coz he is out of the country, & not because of his medical. Would it made a difference?... We were afraid to lie coz we thought that they are making notes about our reasons, but now it doesnt seem like they are keeping track of it, the last time my hubby called them, they were asking again why he is rescheduling...

Any advice on how I could get my husband an earlier interview date? or

Is there any way we could check the availability of dates without canceling our prior schedule?

Any comment is greatly appreciated... Im still hoping so hard to be added in for June Interviews, im still keeping my hopes up...

I'm so sorry to hear that, gil & gina sad.gif Hopefully by calling the embassy you will be able to get an earlier replacement interview date- August seems pretty far out.

Cant wait for Monday in the Philippines so we can call them already... Keeping my hopes up, thanx kimsue!
