At an unknown time the embassy will release all of July. It was the beginning of April when they released June and those were gone in a couple days, not sure why July hasn't been released yet.

so just checking....So this is very odd for them not to released the July dates yet? Do you think things might be changing the way they do things?

This lack of scheduling availability is very frustrating. My two K2 step-daughters have had their medical but need an interview to come here as a follow-to-join to be with us in the states. I was hoping to have them take English classes this summer so they are better prepared for school in Sep. Now, I don't have any idea when they will be able to come.

It would be nice if there was a separate scheduling process for K2s since their mother was already interviewed and approved. I would think their interview is really more of a formality..

Patience is indeed a virtue. After days of waiting, I was able to set an appointment for June 5. When I checked it last night at exactly 11:45pm, there were 3 dates available : June 3, June 5 and June 20.

Also waiting for weeks here and this post gives me hope. My fiance and I are checking around the clock. Good luck to everyone. It would be great if you could share the love on this thread if you get an appointment.

Jefhan, have you guys underwent medical already or you are still waiting for interview dates to be available before having the medical? I am also waiting for interview slots and have not undergone medical yet as I know it is tied up with the visa. I hope we get to see the July calendar open up this week!

This morning at 5 am eastern time was the first time I had seen an open date (May 29, 3 slots available). It appeared on the homepage to the left and under the menu. I clicked continue, and saw the calendar and could have gotten May 29, but that is way too early without a medical. I think a good strategy might be to get the medical now and keep checking afterward for a fast open date. This gives me hope and a strategy, anyway. Good luck to all!

Welcome to the club, Zedayn. My fiancé and I are checking around the clock. I guess that's one of the few good things about being on opposite sides of the globe. :)

If anyone happens to notice some open slots, please, please share it with this thread. I'm so impatient right now!

BTW, in case others haven't noticed, you don't actually have to click Continue and progress to the post-payment appointment rejection page to check if appointments are available. If an appointment is available, it will show on the very first page you see after login below the menu on the left side of the page (below Logout). If you go the former route too many times, the page displays a warning to stop doing that. For those of us who are obsessing over getting an appointment, this should help fuel our OCD a little. :)

I am joining the wagon here. I have 3 kids who are follow-t-join but I do not have the luck for finding a date either. I have been calling and I did chat too but with no hope. I have not seen my kids for 3 years coz my husband and I are working so hard so that my kids will not be a public charge issue.

Wishing and hoping that we will all be together again soon, with the new scheduling scheme, it seems I have to be in agony for a long time :(

FYI it looks like they will be opening July soon now because my wife and I got an email from NVC today giving us an appointment date of July 8. So they may be filling the dates for IR1/CR1's or others that NVC schedules first. Patience! :)
