@Ronn: I got my NOA2 the day before you, and I emailed NVC twice. AFter work yesterday I thought I'd try calling, and 2 minutes later I got a live body. I gave her my info, and another minute later she gave me our MNL #! Maybe you got yours already. Just call! Is BPI closed anyway? I was nervous about calling, because I could never get anyone at USCIS, so I thought it would be just like that, but it pleasantly was not.

GOD luck!

When you schedule online you will see a calendar showing available days and times, choose one then once done make sure to print a couple copies of the confirmation page as you will need them later.

I looked at a couple of days and they both came back 7:30AM so I am not sure if that is the specifc block of time or if we go there and wait in line to be called...oh, be there 15 minutess early and no electronic goodies!

Thanks to Hank and Steve for the reply. I have been a bit confused about the time issue since every post I read about people going to the Embassy for their interview it seems they all line up at 5:00 AM or some ridiculous time such as that. Just curious if everyone has to go that early or not.

Those with early appointments line up early. Most of the times that I saw were 6:30 or 7:30 AM when I scheduled the interview for my wife (then fiancée) so we planned to show up about an hour early, the taxi got their faster then planned but no complains here., so we were almost an hour and a half early. If you can get a later appointment then no need to show up early.

We are staying at the Lotus Garden which is about 5-10 minutes from the embassy. We'll probably plan to be there around 7:00.

Mahalo/Salamat!
