I see someone in Egypt had an interview today for F-2A after waiting only a month from case complete. So it seems the long waits are only for IR1-CR1

Can an applicant have their medical examination done before their interview is scheduled? Apparently there are people who can't get a medical appointment in time for their interviews.

I know the results of the medical exam are good for one year, but I read that a person is required to bring their appointment letter with them to the medical appointment? If that's the case. I assume a medical appointment can't be made until after a person is granted an interview appointment, but the websites I'm reading aren't clear on that.

I thought spouse of us citizen ir1cr1 would have preference over spouse of us resident?....isn

Funny when I did my citizenship last year they made such a big deal about how the spouse of a US citizen has preference over everyone applying for a visa and how quick the process is. I get that there are security checks and things that have to be done but dang man- it's like almost every other category is put first. It's like they know this category of families will wait however long it takes so they push us to the back of the line.

I've been searching the spreadsheets and there has been very little movements on interviews being scheduled for my country. Wait time is about 3-4 months after CC. Meanwhile i have friends that applied for fiance and tourist visas and got interviews in half the time. I get that the tourist industry helps the economy but are these people just completely heartless?

Then again that's a dumb question to ask after seeing how they just cancelled all the Pakistan interviews in one foul swoop.
