I'm not really sure what you are asking. But if you are still at NVC there's nothing for you to do but prepare for interview. There is no readiness anything fro IR1/CR1.

If you file directly, I think you have to tell the embassy you're ready to interview. The London embassy website, says they won't schedule an interview if you haven't submitted this form.

I filed via NVC, but the embassy website is so unclear. I suddenly thought maybe I've forgotten a key form.

Lost the plot? Don't know what that is.

That's a British expression. Sorry. That means "to go crazy"

Your medical has nothing to do with scheduling.

So are you saying you don't have an interview date yet and you already did you medical? How long ago did you do your medical?

My medical is on the 20th Oct. No interview, so the medical form will be sent to the embassy and have no case to match up to.

My husband flew to the USA and we married a couple weeks later. We sent in the AOS package and payment and did the biometric appt. He was with me 4 months when there was a grave family emergency back

It's just my opinion...but looking at the status over and over and over again seems pointless and only adds to the stress. One day we see 3 N/A, another day we see "PAID" the next day it's 3 N/A agai

DWheels76 explained this, but I'll try again. If you sent ORIGINAL documents to NVC, then NVC has forwarded these to the Embassy or Consulate. You are not required to bring any more originals to you

Thank you Moonrising this is kind of what I thought but didn't dare hope until someone else said it. Good luck to both of us and congratulations on you husband's approval.

P.S. I just checked our status again - visa has been issued! Took essentially 2 days since Consulate was closed on Friday and Monday for Columbus day holiday.

Hang in there Dyattaw!

My medical is on the 20th Oct. No interview, so the medical form will be sent to the embassy and have no case to match up to.

I was of the understanding a person can schedule their medical appointment without proof of an interview, but that they must bring their interview letter to the appointment, and if they don't. they are turned away.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm not sure about other countries, but in London you can schedule and attend your medical without proof of interview. My friend attended his weeks before he received his interview date, without any issues.

What's the problem with your passport?

Thank you so much Lowlie !!!

I´m very very concerned....

On June we have reserved a trip to Cozumel - Mexico (3 to 7 December) to celebrate our 1st year of marriage. We bought the tickets and reserved hotel, everything is already paid ! (And no refunds).

Mu husband will take the flight from LA and I will take mine from Lima, we will meet in Cancun and at the end each one will take a flight to go back to each country.

My interview will be November 25, so if we get the approval (crossing fingers), USA Embassy in my country will keep my passport, and it´s very possible they wont send it back before December 3 !!!

and of course I need it for travel to Cozumel :crying:

I dont know what to do !!!

I just visited the website you gave me and it shows "AT NVC", so they haven´t sent our case to my country yet :cry:

Any suggestions please please !!!

I think it depends on the country. I didn't have to bring my interview letter when I did my medical (Jakarta, Indonesia). The hospital just wanted me to write down my case number, passport number, etc, in the form.

Your document will arrive way before your interview. They usually ship your file 7 days after you receive your P4 letter. Have you receive the P4 interview letter yet?
