Case Complete at NVC, waiting for Interview

[EMB & CEM 1]

Hello guys,

NVC just advised me that my case is complete and are waiting for an interview date from the Dominican Republic consulate.... do you guys know how long it's taking for them to assign an interview date in DR?

Honestly, I can't speak for the RD; however, after our case completed at NVC, about 10 days later recieved our letter (via e-mail) with our interview date at embassy in Peru.

Hope this helps.

i checked and they only give you stats from NVC received and NVC sent to consulate but nothing in between case complete and send to consulate.... i guess i will just have to wait and see...

It will take from 1-3 weeks. There's one week of the month that I've noticed they assign interviews. I think its the 3rd week. But some of the other people in DR who recently got assigned interviews would be able to tell you better.

I spoke to NVC and they said that by the end of the week they should be done with assigning interviews for the cases that are closed and going to the DR consul.... I'm hoping that they will schedule me for a january date.... i just want to be with my more mio

Don't worry, as much as you want it, they want to lessen their case load before Xmas. So I think your chances are good !

After you receive your NOA2, you will receive a letter from the NVC telling you that they are processing your case and it will mailed to the Embassy in Santo Domingo. During this time your case is examined then repackaged and mailed to the Embassy.

To get valid information just wait 1-2 weeks and call (toll-free) the Visa Specialist (Department of State) in Washington D.C. Call 202-663-1225. Press Option 1 then Option 0 to speak to a visa specialist. (Do not waste your money calling the Embassy). They will tell you when your case was mailed and when your interview (cita) date is.

Also keep checking the Interview list to see when your interview is. Just type in the Case # that was printed on your NVC Notice (SDO2011...):

Your packet will be mailed by the mail service in Dominican Republic (Inposdom). Which may take forever (or it may never arrive at all). So be proactive, gather all your forms. I have a checklist you can use, let me know if you need it.

Thanks MrTee12, but my process is a little different since I'm petitioning for a CR1 visa and not a K1 visa. My documents had to be gathered by NVC before they send me off to DR. Our case was complete at NVC as of yesterday and they are only waiting to schedule the interview before sending off the application to DR. But I'm hopeful that by the end of this week they will schedule my husband for an interview in January. I just have to be a little patient for the next few days

This site might help you. But it involves some work on your part. If you see someone names with their timeline that looks good to what you are looking for click on their name and look at their timeline in their profile. I hope you get an interview soon.
