Looks like it takes long to have an interview scheduled :(

I know it sucks. I was really hoping for an August interview but nothing came. For Montreal consulate they usually have the interview 2 months after Cc. I don't know what the heck is going on with them. Someone with the month of May case complete still waiting for interview date. Same consulate. Edited by jhondhrey

Hi January 2015 Fillers,

I haven't posted here in a while, I'm at NVC stage now. I have completed all the steps just waiting on NVC to review my documents and schedule and interview date for my husband . NVC so far has been pretty good and going fast I was able to do everything within 2weeks. But it seems like they are going to take time reviewing the financial/supporting documents.

Anyone else waiting for NVC to review their documents?

I submitted NVC package last week and got an email this week saying one of my docs is password protected. I sent it in. Now waiting. I was disappointed to hear that it takes a few months to schedule an interview.

I have been checking the CEAC website about twice or sometimes three times a day, I have been seeing some people getting CC around 20 or 21 days....I even seen someone get theirs on here a couple earlier than the 20 day mark. I already checked today twice. Funny enough, I was just about to go to bed, and I decided to sign on to the CEAC just to check and to my surprise OMG......OMG.......3 N/A's IN 17 DAYS.....WOW.....I'm going to try to see if I can get through and call them. So it's a fact it can change anytime.

Does it say anywhere when your ''Scan Date'' is ? I know they got mine because they asked me to unlock one of the docs.
