Hello everyone! I received my packet 4 before my packet 3. And as I try to make the appointment online it says it's not ready for an appointment. Is anyone having that issue?

If they don't set you up for an interview in 5 months contact your congressman or senator or both. 5 months is unreasonable long delay.

In my case I contact senator Feinstein and the senator contacted them asking about the delay and they had to explain to the senator (I got a copy the letter by mail). They scheduled our interview the same day they received senators enquiry about the delay.

How long you waited? And what's going on there at the u.s. embassy in addis ababa? Cause this delay should not be like this what it is the reason? I will do that its been almost going to two months right now.
