Hi VJ’s...We had our interview 7/18. I think we were over thinking the whole process, the agent asked a few questions. The whole interview lasted all of 5 minutes, then she said we were approved!! Thank you all for your help

Congrats did u already receive ur visa?? How many days from ur interview??

what wiki? lingche seems to be the one floating around and i didn't see "packet 3" anywhere. i just thought it would be nice if packet 3 was attached to ds230 as one package instead of this snail email..

luckily a operator point me here http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_3830.html to get the packet 3. i got that filled out the same day. but my wife is going to kill me for waking her up in the early morning.

it's on page one of this topic. Post 1 .

please go back, reread it? the link is there.

If you can't find it, really, say so.

hey saylin i need to ask you something. my case got completed today on 2nd August 2012 (as in i got interview letter today) stating that my interview date is 27 sep 2012. I am a doctor and i intend to work in USA as doctor. for doctors there is a universal job application system that starts on 1st september when you have to apply online and your visa status should be clear before that. for that purpose i want to reschedule my visa appointment at embassy for an earlier date. i wanted to ask you how soon should i contact embassy regarding this and if i should on these grounds or not?

Your case will need to get to your consulate/embassy first. What country are you from? You'll need to call DOS to know when your case has arrived. Then give it a day or two and contact your consulate/embassy (either through phone, if possible, or email). Just explain your situation and see if you can get re-scheduled for an earlier date. They might be willing to accommodate you (if they have open slots), but it varies by consulate/embassy. Some are more flexible than others.

case complete != get interview letter.

you had case complete a while back

but.

now that you have an interview letter - WAIT ONE WEEK, then contact the IV Unit at the Embassy, ask for an earlier date. This could be via email, telephone, or fax, depending ...

now i see it, didn't recall seeing it earlier because i kept looking at lingche guide...

OK - did you use NVC Electronic Processing, or no ?

it took them 2 days to review my packet 3 email and case is complete and at final review.

My prediction is that you'll have the interview email letter by Wednesday, with an appointment date for August 29th.

Call once a day, ask again, till the answer changes.

I used electronic processing.....

I hope your prediction is correct and not my wishful thinking that you are correct.

Once a day? I gotten the habit of calling them average of 6 times a day. Usually I make the call and let it ring for average of 30 mins while I do my work. When the operator answers, that is when I take a break from the computer and start asking questions.
