Hi everyone. I'm sorry if this question has been posted before or if I have posted it in the wrong place but there seems to be different answers to my problem. I'm currently waiting for my interview date - where do I call to find this out? I've tried calling the NVC and they told me they don't give out dates because they sent my application over to London. Do I call the London embassy? I've read that I should receive a letter but that this takes too long.

Hope someone can help.

Best wishes to you all.

Once it leaves NVC it is all up to the embassy. And you could check on your country's portal and see other ones process.. Because sometimes if you call them before they notify you they could get a little bit rude..
