Case Complete?

[figuringthisout 0]

Hey guys 'n gals!

Got back up and running and got all the paperwork put in etc for the NVC IV packet and after a few days on Sept 22nd we recieved this email:

Dear Sir/Madam:

All documentation necessary to complete the National Visa Center's processing of your case has been received. As soon as an interview date has been scheduled, the applicant, petitioner and attorney (if applicable) will be notified.

The applicant should NOT make any travel arrangements, sell property, or give up employment until the US Embassy or Consulate General has issued a visa.

The US Embassy or Consulate General may require additional documentation at the time of the interview.

Regards,

NVC Document Review Team

National Visa Center

It's been about 10 days, but I can still log into this site:

https://ceac.state.gov/IV/Login.aspx?signout=true

Is that the place I check for the SIF? If so, I can still sign in! Is it normal it takes about 2 weeks after they send an email like this?

Just getting impatient perhaps, but everythings finally moving again and it's all I can think about! hehe

Also, anyone have any ideas when our interview will be in Montreal? I'm thinking maybe November??

Congrats on CC

Our case was completed on 09/09/2011 and no interview date yet. We are still able to log in into the payment portal and no SIF but that does not mean anything. NVC should start assigning interviews in the next 2 weeks.

Hi! I am still able to access the payment portal but I have received case complete on Sept 22 and yesterday received interview date, and also saw on DHL website that our package has been sent to the Embassy. So, I guess that best way to check if your case has been completed is by AVR or speaking with operator. In my case, I found out per AVR, then confirmed with operator, then a week later I got interview date. Good luck to you!!

Grats! That's the CC email!

And nope, wrong site for SIF. It's: https://ceac.state.gov/CTRAC/Invoice/signon.aspx

And it's usually two months from CC to interview in Montreal, so November is definitely a good guess. Good luck and hope you get your interview date scheduled soon!

Don't worry about the SIF. You got the case complete email and that's all that matters

I also received case complete and the Consular Visa Interview appointment letter. And I can still log on to the payment portal. The correct address is at:

https://ceac.state.gov/CTRAC/Invoice/signon.aspx

It's normal.

You should not need to wait that long to get appointment time. Canada is electronic processing country, same as China. My case was completed on Sep. 28 (document complete acknowledge email was Sep. 26) and On Sep. 29 I got the consular appointment letter already by email.

It doesn't matter if you do EP or not for Canada. What matters is how backlogged the consulate/embassy is. For Canada, it's about 2 months from case complete to interview date. And usually getting the interview date within 2 weeks.

I am in the same situation - can still sign on but got the CC email and I even called to confirm - it was completed on the 26th. So now waiting for the interview date - I am REALLY hoping for November. NVC operator stated they only book interviews for the second week of each month - so that's pretty limiting for spots. Fingers crossed for us all.. and will hopefully see you all in chilly Montreal! (The anger of having to fly across the worlds 2nd largest country is starting to go away with the excitement)

Please remember they schedule interviews ALL month long, not just the second week.
