Hi Vjers,

I recently (May 2014) emailed the embassy regarding the wait time for them to schedule my interview (yes, they will schedule your interview and "should" send your beneficiary a letter - but you should still check the CEAC web site for updates and contact NVC periodically. Others had mentioned this in other threads so I won't go into it).

Anyways, I was told that the wait time is currently 120 days.

Yeesh!

But as always, think positive and be aware that there are some people that have/had thier interview dates under the 120 day period so keep hope alive.
