February 2015 Interviews

[jcruzazucar 131]

I was finally able to schedule my husband's ASC appointment in Mexico for February 18! I wanted an earlier date but they only allowed slots right before his consular interview. Chose DHL courier too. Tip for my Mexico peeps:

If you try to log in to Immigrant Visa in ais.us....wesbite and it says your case is not available for scheduling, email the email address that appears on that warning. They took exactly 4 business days to respond and I was able to schedule right after I received their email saying the case was now ready. Best of luck to everyone!

Hello everyone,

I am in need of your advice. My P4 says that NVC has submitted or sent all required documents to the Montreal consulate; does this mean I do not need to bring any photocopies except for the P4 letter???

Even for the passport photos the code says NVC sent them to the US Embassy/Consulate.

You want to bring copies or originals of EVERYTHING and the reason for this is because if they lose something, that may delay the process. Instead if you have a copy of something which is lost by them, you can use the copy and wrap up the process.

My case status never updated from In transit to Ready. Four days ago I sent the following email to the embassy: "My husband, xxhuband namexxx DOB xxxxxx Casenumber xxxxxxxx has his visa interview on January 8th. When I check the CEAC website it still says that his visa papers are "In Transit" from the NVC. I just want to check with you to make sure that his documents have arrived from the NVC since his interview is in three days. Also, are there any additional documents that we need to bring to the interview beyond what is mentioned in the instructions in the P4 letter? I just want to make sure we have everything in order and have done everything we need to do before we show up on the 8th. Please advise. "

My email was never answered. I phoned the Embassy and the woman on the phone was snippy with me and said "well do you have an appointment letter?" I said "yes" she said "well then all you need to do is show up"

My husband and I reported for his CR1 interview on Jan 8th. They turned us away because the security guards were on strike so they said nobody van go inside and to come back at the same time tomorrow. We went back today and were told that our interview would be after they helped all the non immigrant visa people... sooooooo four hours later we were the third to last ones left and they called us up and told us that they didn't have the package that contained our case or the other immigrant visa cases and that they'd contact us when they got it.

Thanks to this site I knew this wasn't true as I had already confirmed with the NVC the date the case was sent and I had tracked it with DHL and it was signed for at the embassy. I insisted on something more concrete than "don't call us, we'll call you" so we finally ended up speaking with the consular officer and not just the window guy and the consular officer treated us well and showed concern. They requested our data package from the NVC and she said she'll call us on Monday. HOPEFULLY we'll wind up with an interview next week.

This is just SOOO STRESSFUL Mentally preparing and then getting sent home twice. Mentally, we're just exhausted... and physically too since we couldn't get any sleep either night thinking about the interview. Oh yeah, and We sent ALL originals to the NVC.. so they have lost all of our original documents. lovely.

Good morning friends.

My wife had her interview today and was approved hamdolilah. Big thanks to all VJ members and a special thanks to Soloenta Saylin and Dwheels for all your help and advice along this difficult journey, I could not have done it without you guys. Now I can get some sleep I am so excited I dont even think I can.

Congrats!!!! can you tell us what questions where you asked ?

[armenma 10]

I called embassy 5 days ago regarding changing the appointment to an earlier date and yesterday they told me that they are overwhelmed and can't do an earlier time. I was a bit sad but oh well hell with them my wife will go on FEB 24th.

Also can anyone advise me ?

I am planning on going to Armenia to go to the interview with my wife. Any advice on this ? I am worried they will be rude or pressuring to my wife. US consulate in Armenia is a very rude consulate....

Any thoughts ?

Do you have to pay any additional fees we you go for your interview in Montreal? I have already paid all the fees with the NVC

Just the $165 Visa fee (Green Card fee) after You you get Visa. You pay online. But all other fees are paid you are done.
