Got an email from NVC regarding Interview Date.

What a huge relief !! :dance::) :)

Congratulations. Could you please post your interview date ?

My wife's NVC case was approved on Aug 1st, so I am hoping to receive interview data soon. But with your information, I could possibly guess how much more time to go for interview.

Thanks !

My case was closed and transferred on the same day(Dec 13,2011). I didn't receive any email or postal mail from NVC. Nothing from Mumbai consulate. I called NVC and they told me that my case was closed and transferred from Chennai to Mumbai.

Thanks
