Thank you so much for your help! You made me feel a little better regarding South Africa's embassy. I haven't seen my parents in 8 years I just hope to be able to spend Christmas with them. I am also planning my wedding so I hope my mom will be able to be there so she can experience the whole planning process she's already missed my dress fitting.

Each embassy have slots for the kind of Visa category they will conduct that month. Lets say I am Supervisor #5 and I have South Africa's October schedule. It will show like 3 on this date category IR1/CR1, 2 on that date F2A and so forth and they start assigning cases to the dates. They stop when they either run out of cases or run out of slots.

So its not a country by country. You see some countries getting announced before others because maybe the embassy sent in schedule sooner. Or there weren't as many to do or that scheduler was faster.

I know Pakistan and India are usually the last and usually do 2 rounds one at 1st to 2nd week like now and end of month.

Many embassy that don;t have alot of visa interviews you just get scheduled in what is available.

A place like my embassy Lagos does on average 300 to 400 Visitor Visa, Student Visa, Business Visa interviews per day. They normally take no more than 3 CR1/IR1 Mon-Thur. K1's about the same.

Hope that helps a little to understand. (but South Africa is usually not a long wait for any category) not a real busy embassy. :goofy:

Now I'm really confused! This is all so frustrating. How do we know which reps know what they're talking about and which don't? And why is there no mechanism to be able to tell where in the queue you are for interview dates at your embassy/consulate? It seems NVC could easily be able to track that. At least then you'd know where you stood in line....
