Hi guys!

I filed for IR-5 for both my parents and both cases have been completed at the NVC on 7-18-2011 (just yesterday). Yay, finally!!! I called NVC this morning to ask approximately how long it takes for them to schedule an interview. The operator told me to call back the 3rd week of August to see if an interview is scheduled for September. Is it really true that they only schedule interview every 2nd week of the month? He said USEM in Manila is fully booked for the month of August. Is anyone here on the same boat as I am? Did anyone have a "case complete" this month and already have an interview schedule?

Any input will be highly appreciated. I just can't wait to finally have my parents here with me! :)

Thank you!!!

After the NVC completed my daughter case IR2 I did a lot of research about the timeline of the other VJ members and compare to my daughters timeline and heres what I found.

after completion count 11-15 days and call the NVC operator to get the interview appointment.

and from the completion date count 7 weeks and thats the exact date for the interview

Hope it helps

Is your mom in the Philippines too? Yea, I really hope and pray for a September interview. Are you considering an advanced medical for your mom? Once I hear anything from NVC I will let you know. :)

NVC forwarded my daughters case last July 12, Shes doing her advanced medical right now with my brother, her interview was set on August 5, 6:30 AM. wish us luck!!!

I adviced you to call the NVC operator after 10-15 days and ask if the interview appointment for you mom was set. Thats what I did after 11 days called NVC and I got my daughter interview appointment.
