Interview date changed

[fancygirl 1]

My Fiance's interview for the K1 Visa was for January 16, 2013. That was a ways away but we were happy to have an interview. I bought airline tickets to join him in Ankara even though I can not go to the interview. Because this is all taking so long it was just nice to spend some time together.Make a little vacation out of it. He also bought his tickets from Iran to Ankara as the price of the dollar is changing minute by minute. On Thursday I get a one line e-mail stating the interview is being changed to Oct 18th. One week away!!The e-mail looked so unofficial that I called my attorney to check and see if it was real as they say you can not call the embassy. I sent a e-mail on Thursday to them and still have heard nothing. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? I could almost be happy about it except of the lost money and the fact that based on the interview dates my fiance made a job commitment that he feels obligated to finish. Of course he is going. More money spent on new airline tickets, of course the ones we have are non refundable/transferable and more hotel reservations and I can not go and so more time until we see each other. There will be advanced processing. I just was wondering if this is something that happens often to put you off guard. I could see a week or so change but 3 months? Your thoughts

If you suspect anything is wrong I suggest you contact the American services department of the embassy. Direct the email to the duty officer asking them to assist you. They will not do any work on the visa itself but they will help you figure out if something is wrong with the email you question.

You could also ask the embassy to give him an interview date closer to what was expected even if they had tried to give him one sooner. You are also correct in thinking there may be A P after the interview. This happens in many of these cases in that part of the world and can take many months.
