They always start early when you're about to get case complete and they're always late when your waiting with cc in hand! :)

Lol you are right!!! That's the way life goes, especially when dealing with the NVC

Good thing is that lots of people got CC today on Facebook so they'll be going through the interview stage with us! :thumbs:

That's true! :rofl: Since I got a CC on the 16th, I thought I missed the cut-off date by one day (since I thought the 15th was the cut-off date). :bonk:

It turned out that I missed the cut-off date by 6 days! :wow: They finished scheduling late Oct interviews on the 10th! :rofl::rofl::rofl:

Alright. I said I would so I did... I called the NVC just now...

The phone rep who took the call did not mention her name and was either exhausted or had started friday happy hour slightly early... or both. She was completely confused. That said, she was nice and informed me that no, our interview date has not been scheduled yet.

Only two business days left in the month... :clock:

I'm the USC petitioner. My wife is British (now a USC!!!), generally awesome, and amazingly patient.

So I called a friend of mine at the State Department and he gave me a little inside info. I then called a friend at a national phone company, he gave me the range of numbers for the NVC in NH (private line outbound). After a little calling, I found the range of numbers from the NVC desks. I then went to an internet voice over IP relay (boomerang) site where I can enter my desired source number (NH NVC number). I called my ex military buddy who works at the embassy in Bogota and he gave me the bank of numbers for the consulate that deals with visas. So I entered the source NVC NH number in the boomerang server, called a few numbers at the consulate, got someone on the phone, acted like a depressed beleaguered American NVC employee and set up my own interview date! It worked like a charm! October 16th baby!!!!!

:rofl::rofl::rofl:

I worked too much in military comms and have been in large Data Center / ISP comms for over 25+ years. It's feasible, but only that. Just a weird technical "wish I could" daydream. A great idea though! hahahaha!!! The most ironic thing is? I have worked on all of these networks where our data travels. But just a day dream...completely on the up and up here, doing it 100% legal (disclaimer for NSA who is now sourcing my IP address to find my identity...just a joke boys!) hahahaha

hey..

Have the interview in 4 days..

It is normal or is it just me: I am freaking out and so restless about it. I am going crazy!

I really need to keep calm, especially during the interview. Any inputs on how to stay calm and composed during the interview?

Thanks

I'm also pretty restless! Have the interview on Oct 1 as well. I'm just going through my documents again and again. I think it will be helpful to look at everything again and organize papers nicely. That way you will feel confident.

I have one question - is there any restriction on the amount of stuff that we are allowed to bring inside the embassy. My files feel a bit heavy. In that case I will have to figure out if there is anything I can readily leave outside...

Thanks a lot!
