Hi,

Called the NVC today and was told that they won't start scheduling interviews until August 15th and my file will not be sent off until an interview as been scheduled. My ? is this the normal process? To my Trini members I read somewhere that you can call the embassy for an interview but will I have to wait until the file is in TnT? Any info will be appreciated.

Thanks,

I am waiting for an interview date as well. So scared to hear that I need to wait till August to know the inteview date and it will probably be like the end of September.

My petition was aproved on April 24th, so as of yesterday it's been 3 MONTHS that NVC was processing our papers. Crazy, so sick and tired of it. They are soooo stupid and slow there. I hate them! I haven't seen my husband since January.

Iryna, I'm pretty much in the same situation as you..Mine left the UK in August and I saw him once in Jan and thats it!

We got a checklist yesturday via email. Asking for documents THEY ALREADY HAVE but apparently just have not looked at yet!

So...Interviews, obviously I'm not quite there yet...but is there a massive wait on them? I honestly don't feel like I'm going to get out there until like October at this rate. :(

I would think it would be a different waiting period for different countries but I guess not. Since most of you all are waiting for an interview date. I do hope its late August or early September... October is definitely NOT an Option I'm looking at...

Iryna how were you able to have your medical done with out your interview letter? I thought you needed it to take with you for that?

LadySarabi, I don't know if this is the same for you, but all I needed to do was to have a case number from the NVC to book my medical. We did it sooner than later to just help spread the cost.
