There are no available appointments at this time

[Neema 4]

Anyone trying to get an interview date with the Nairobi consular and getting this message? "There are no available appointments at this time"

For those with previous experience how do you go about it?

hi guys!

I don't know if my situation will help you in your country... I called my embassy last week on Tuesday to ask if they recieved my package, they said not yet but it's on the way. So I called again on Thursday and they said it just got there and they are sending me the package 3 and when I recieve it I can call them back to schedule an interview.... I recieved package 3 yesterday and called my embassy...I've been told (by a different person than last week) that there are no appointments this week and I can't even schedule an appointment this week because the person that does it is on vacation... So they told me to call back next Monday...I'm wasting my time here waiting for someone to get back from their vacation...That lady I talked to last week could have told me that she was not gonna be there this week...

But that might be your problem too.... Keep trying!

Ngeci, you are supposed to pay first so that you can schedule an interview. I have paid and called them yesterday and was told the same thing and asked to continue trying.

i read online that a ds160 is for non immigrant visa applicants and is for those who are travelling temporarily to the US,why do we (K1)have to fill it?

I read that too when I was filing for K1 visa, but finally I had to do it. I really don't know if its a must or not.

you have to schedule your own interview? i thought that they schedule your interview then they call you?? So after they notify you of approval on your case, it is up to you to call and book an appointment?
