Called DOS because I couldn't bear waiting for packet 4 to arrive in the mail and they gave me my interview date! It's on 17 Dec, 10.15 am! No prizes for guessing what I want for Christmas this year.

I hope you get your gift on the 17th as well!

So I'm back from my mental break from visa "journeying" and when I checked our status it now says updated as of the Nov. 29th. I can only speculate what that means. Maybe it means they sent out Pkt 3 finally, but hopefully it means they sent out Pkt 4 with the interview date. Jamaican applicants have mentioned on here several times how they never received either packet. I saw it too late (since I'm Cali) and they were already closed for the day. I'm calling in the morning to check, I pray they have a date scheduled for his interview.

Keeping my fingers crossed for you!!

OMG!!! I just got off the phone with the NVC to try to get my invoice ID number, because per an email I missed from the embassy last Monday (11-25-13) said I needed to do the DS-260 to get the interview date. Well, when I went to do that I remembered why I hadn't filled it out before, BECAUSE I NEVER GOT A LETTER FROM THE NVC!!! (sorry... woosaaaaaahhhh....) I had always called DOS because it was quicker and people reported how rude the NVC reps can be. Well.... that was definitely not a lie. After waiting 21:43 mins I get a rep on the line and she asks the beni info & then my info to which she quickly says I have MY birthday wrong. What the Heck!! She proceeds to tell me she can't help me. I asked her how SHE got it wrong because I have corresponded and spoken to the Kingston Embassy AND DOS without any issues because they have the correct info. She continues repeating how she can't talk to me eventhough I clearly was not asking a case specific question when I asked "how does the middle man get the wrong info if the depts before and after them have the correct info?" I asked to speak with a supervisor...

When this woman, Supervisor Julissa, gets on and proceeds to ask the for the beni & pet info and stops again at my birthday, but she took a with me as if I was an idiot not understanding they can't talk to me. After her repeatedly cutting me off I finally couldn't accept not being heard after waiting over 20 mins. I cut her off and asked her to remain quiet until I finished speaking. Like I explained to her I understand I need to scan my passport & send them a copy to get verbal access to information with them. But what I needed to know is how their error may negatively effect us, if at all since the embassy & DOS do have the correct info. All in all after she listened, she did say that it is only the NVC that may have it wrong and once I get it straight with them then I should not have any problems later.

I don't trust it, so I'm now 15:41 mins into the wait so hopefully I can see if another rep reads my birth date wrong. (I know, I know I'm obessing.)

I'm getting a glass of wine & about to try to relax my mind and not worry about problems that may not come up.

omg what a mess on their part, am so sorry to hear that. hopefully it won't be long till you get the invoice id after sending them the scan of your passport.

So I called the DOS and like I have experienced each time I called the rep was very helpful. She ended up telling me it was the year of my birthday that was incorrect by the last number and immediately explained how that would possibly effect our petition (which was my main concern yesterday) and told me to make sure I send the copy of my passport to the embassy asap so they can get started on correcting that.

After I called the NVC back and gave them the wrong birthday (hope that doesn't count against me for lying to the government official, but they made me do it, lol) then they gave me my invoice # and even the beneficiary ID # although I don't know its purppose yet. I even asked for any other numbers or info she may think I need so I didn't have to call back and wait another 47 minutes (25 mins my first call today that surprisingly disconnected right after the rep said hello and ask how she may help me. Oh well, all in all I'm thankful I didn't have wait to get the invoice#.
