It was Sept. 14th when they opened up and we were fortunate enough to get one. There are people who have been waiting since mid August when we started trying so hopefully it will be soon! Our appointment is next week and if I get the opportunity I will ask what is causing the backlog and why the lengthy delay in opening up new slots.

I know how frustrating it is and our thoughts are with you!

Best of luck to all who are waiting!!!

Congratulations to all those getting appointments. I'm so sorry you've been having to wait so long. I hope this also bodes well for us who are waiting for NVC to schedule for us.
