i dont know if this will help you but my husband waited 4 months to get his interview and the embassy in cairo egypt.

i know it is not the embassy in australia but this gives you an idea. depends on their case load and if they are backed up. plus they can only schedule so many interview a month. could be 30 days you will hear something...could be 4 to 6 months you never know.

check the embassy website in australia and see whats going on there.

good luck

Moved from IR-1/CR-1 Process & Procedures to Australia & New Zealand regional forum; OP is asking for country specific answers.

You're applying for a K1 Fiance Visa, yes? If so, Sydney should have sent your husband/fiancée via email what's called 'Packet 3'. It will detail further steps for your husband/fiancée to take to get his interview date. If he hasn't got that yet he should email the Sydney consulate at sydneyiv@sate.gov for an update on what's going on. Make sure the subject field is the case number (it should look something like SYDxxxxxxxxx) and the message should have his and your details, including full name, birth dates and passport numbers. Then ask your question. I find this earns quick responses (Note they do take several days to reply to emails).

Hope this helps.

OP is married. Spousal visa interviews are scheduled by the NVC based on available dates given to them by the Consulate. A "packet 3" would not be sent in this case.

Our case was complete at NVC April 19 and there were no slots left for this month. They said by May 16 I should call and get an idea, I'm assuming it will be scheduled for June though possibly July..
