Hi all, I have been following VJ for a long time as a closet reader but now I am worried about something to do with DS160 and CEAC at London embassy

Basically my CEAC doesn't update at all, it says "no status"

I filed for my DS160 on 16th January, I submitted my application for readiness on 3rd February, and my medical appointment is next Tuesday (the 17th). I have received the packet 3 off them stating to do medical and follow instructions, but I presumed my CEAC would have updated by now? Or does it wait till AFTER they get readiness forms AND medical results? I am so worried something has gone wrong!!!!!

I am hoping to have my visa interview appt. and fly out by mid April. I hope something hasn't gone wrong to prevent this.

Thanks

Camilla

London embassy will not schedule you an interview until you have both submitted your DS-160 and completed your medical. They have to have the results first before they will schedule. Our packet is on the way to the embassy so I don't yet know if it updates before or after, but I would assume after.

If your CEAC status says "no status" then it sounds like you are choosing Non-immigrant. Pick IMMIGRANT and make sure you put in the letters and numbers LNDxxxxxxxxx.

Did that work?
