They probably will tell you wait until your case file arrives. Cuz they can;t do anything until they receive that. Hopefully that goes out soon.

And I feel much better . Funny how a Case Complete can make you feel right as rain.

Hello! Just came by to give a big congratulations to all the recent CCs and interview dates!!! We're both excited (and terrified) about our interview in Port of Spain in 10 DAYS!!! I'm flying home to support my hubby. Can't wait to see him, even though it only been a month.

Good luck to all the couples who are waiting. It won't be too long now!

Hi Guys,

Those that have gotten their interview date already have you noticed anything different on the nvc website? maybe AOS fee changes back to PAID? Just curious to see if there is any indication that an interview date has been assigned.

thanks,

Never really checked. But we got our interview date in about 3 days after CC. You should call them. Can't hurt.

I noticed the same thing when my case Status changed to IN TRANSIT.

It seems that AOS toggles back and forth between PAID and N/A when NVC handles the case.

I just have a question? You fly for Islamabad to join her, did the embassy let you in with ur wife for the interview. what was there final answer? They kept the passport for Visa, but didnot tell u how many days it take to get that back.?

Hi there, yes, the embassy let me in with my wife for the interview...I'm the petitioner and a US citizen so I suppose that makes it okay; not sure what would happen if someone who isn't the petitioner and isn't a USC tried to join. Their final answer was "approved" and told us my wife would receive the passport in Lahore by the end of the month. He wanted to wait until after our wedding anniversary in a few days, before he processed the visa. I'm still not clear on what difference that makes and how this approach was truly to my wife's advantage, but not much choice I had in the matter!

Good morning. I'm sure this has been asked and answered but I am going to ask again. When you receive interview notification, does that come via email (and snail mail)? I am not anticipating anything soon as I just got the canned message from NVC stating that they have received all required documents and our case is in queue for interview date. Also, I'm sure I read this somewhere but doesn't the PD come into play when they schedule?

Just called NVC and the woman said they are almost complete with March scheduling but still at it. Of course the usual "we will notify you soon as we schedule your appointment". Please Lord March.

Hi girl, you have been quiet lately.

That canned message is the official CC email that normally is sent 7 days after the actual CC date.

When NVC assigns you an interview, you will receive via email the Interview Letter (P4).

This letter is sent within 48 hours after your interview is assigned.

Have a good day

Case Complete order first PD can play apart say if there's multiple CC same day. But it's Case Complete order rules.

Great news today! I just got off the phone with NVC and she confirmed that they've scheduled my wife's interview at the Montreal embassy for March 16! Hopefully that means that all the Canada cases will start to move---hope everyone gets their interview dates soon!!

fyi--I went back after that phone call and checked the CEAC status page and it still says 'At NVC'. I'll keep checking to see when it switches to 'In Transit' just to have more info for people tracking the timelines of such things here on the boards.

Congratulations!!! That is such exciting news!!
