I don't get it why they did the interview scheduling for you? Didn't you try making an appointment on your own before you went to st Lukes? Or it's really like that! I'm confused.

Good luck.

Good luck.

St. Lukes had scheduled an interview date for my wife because my wife was undergoing a 6 month sputum treatment. Your case may be different.

There's no fee to pay at the embassy.

After your wife receives her visa and the visa packet, you should pay the new immigrant fee of $165 BEFORE she flies to the US. Instructions on how to pay will be included in the visa packet.
