Hey how did you get an interview date before CC?

I may have made a big mistake, but maybe it will be alright. For background see this forum thread about our situation:

http://www.visajourn...et-visa-in-hand

I was told by several people that for the Manila embassy that you could schedule your embassy interview as soon as you get you NVC MNL number. That you also could sign up on-line with SLEC and go for your medical without waiting for NVC letter. What people did't make sure to tell me was that is only for K-1 visas, not CR-1. My fault for not truly fully checking.

I called the embassy number and asked if I could set up an interview because our son is starting Kindergarten at the end of August and wanted to get a slot to get him to school as soon as we could so he would not miss as much. The lady at the embassy was accommodating and set the interview.

I found out after that what I did might not work. That the CO might not accept us that day and may make us come back on the day NVC scheduled. I hope it works because I bought plane tickets already. We can only pray now.

My wife did go to SLEC early. She really wanted to get cleared in case she got a positive to do the Sputum test which you have to wait 2 months for the results. Everything was OK though and no sptum test required,

I hope I answered your questions.

Seriously?

you bought plane ticket?

even when they approve your visa, new issues may come up and you may be re-scheduled and even denied.

I think your biggest problem is if your case file is sent to the embassy on time for the interview you scheduled. I know of a recent incidence that a spouse was turned away at the embassy for an earlier interview because NVC hadn't sent the case file yet, so they were forced to wait until the original date that NVC scheduled for them. I don't know if they would expedite your case, but you can try calling NVC once you get your case complete and explain to them the situation.

This just happened to my hubby. Ok n june 25 when NVC told us our interview Aug 15 I didn't want to wait long. So I signed up at the website and schedualed for July 25. My husband showed up but couldn't get interviewed because they didn't receive his file yet ?
