Interview scheduled! November 21st. The Friday before Thanksgiving week isn't exactly the stuff dreams are made of, but I suppose I should be thankful we finally have an interview date.

So happy to report VISA APPROVED!!!! Hubby was in and out in under and hour. He said the lady working at window 7 was a little intimidating as he overheard the people in front of him getting gril

Yeah same here. Just one week to the interview.

The week seems to be dragging by...won't rest until we have the visa in hand and actually get through POE...I didn't think I would be this nervous but after 17 months of waiting, I am on pins and needles! Good luck with your interview!

I had the interview yesterday. The whole experience took like 25-30 minutes. First in the embassy they got me through metal detector and checked all I was carrying, after that they sent me in the building where I was having the interview, a nice lady asked for my passport, for my renewed police certificate, the TNT confirmation (this is only for Romania) and all the proofs of relationship. This took like maximum 5 minutes. After the CO called my name, took my fingerprints and my oath. The consul asked me how we met, how many times my husband visited me and when we married. And that was all! He said "Congratulations, your visa is approved! You can pick it up on monday. Welcome to America!" On the website it showed ISSUED in less than an hour after the interview. I am so happy!!!! POE is on Boston on the 7th Nov. Yaaaaay!!!!!!!! Good luck to everyone!!! :dancing:(L):dancing: :joy: :dancing:

Wow so great! Congratulations!!! Good luck on your POE! So happy for you! Thanks for sharing your experience!

I just called NVC and don't have a December interview date yet. The representative also stated that she doesn't know if one will be scheduled for December. I'm hopeful that an interview will be scheduled and will not mind the representative's comment. She did confirm that they started scheduling December interviews today.
