I'm so sorry to hear this. You and your family do not deserve to be waiting this long. There's definitely something not right going on here with all these conflicting information. Maybe the phone rep you talked to had the information all wrong, or maybe he was just giving a generic response. 

Have you tried calling Cairo US Embassy directly? I am not sure how the protocol for DIRECTLY contacting the embassy works, but in my case I was able to establish mutual email communication with Tokyo  US Embassy 10 days before my interview. They had emailed to remind me to bring original documents, and I replied with some other clarifications which they were very happy to answer. Maybe you can call up US Cairo Embassy and explain to them the weird situation, or maybe ask them if they had indeed finished scheduling all interviews

I hope for you to hear good news when you call back tomorrow. My thoughts and prayers go out to you! Stay strong and positive!

so sorry to know that :( that's quite frustrating to know if true, but cheer up, they usually do that, different answers, please try to call again, for two times , to verify that statement, as per the agent i talked to last night, she said, it actually depends on the embassy where we are going to have an interview, as to how many  pending interviews they have, and how many cases were completed ahead of yours. i am praying you'd get your interview date the soonest, so you'd be reunited with your husband soon :) (usually, when i heard contradicting answers from reps, i keep on calling, say 4 times a day to know which is correct or which answer is more reliable 

 

i'd call again to check and have as much information i can.. wishing you all the best:wub:

@thegreatphoenix and @R and KJ Thank you so much for your encouragement. 

 

I will call today at least twice... maybe once mid morning and once later at night. The problem is I've been told multiple information. I've been told that they are still scheduling interviews and when I ask them specifically about the Cairo US Embassy, they say that they are still scheduling for May and have not been told any different. So when I called this last time, it just was a low blow. I know that the reps in many cases do not know what is what... that they are only giving information that is on their screen, but sometimes I wish they would leave it at just that, no need to give other information if they are not sure or not. 

 

I'll keep trying and I will try and call the US embassy here in Cairo. Thanks ladies so much for all your support. Much love to you. :wub:

i actually thought that rep who said they no longer give schedule is just confused :D perhaps she misheard and thought schedules for April :) kidding aside, i think she just made a mistake, as everyone of us who called, Rep said they haven't given any schedule yet or they are still scheduling except Royo's rep and yours, don't lose hope, :)  am sure they are giving your husband a best date for interview :wub:

 

you are most welcome :) we are blessed to have you as a co-member who uplifted our spirits when we are down too  :)

 

besides our husbands / wives, we have each other who has taught us a lot, given each other support, emotional boosters :) and  prayer warriors :)

 

let's all be positive, we all will be with our spouses the soonest

 

i've been praying so hard for all of us. God bless everyone.

praying for the representatives to give us light and not to give us wrong hopes/informations,

praying for the consuls, the embassy workers, medical doctors and each and everyone, may they all give us a smooth, speedy and hassle-free journey,

 

as waiting (when no one knows how long should we wait) is the most draining stage. :dance: :dancing: (L) (F)

Amen to all your prayers. :wub: Yes you are right, just have to stay positive, we've all made it this far. :star: I agree it is the waiting that's so draining. This is the most drained I've felt throughout the entire process. Looking at the bright side we're nearly finished. Thank you again for the breath of fresh air. (F)

 

I did call our embassy this morning and was told to have my husband email them since he's the visa applicant. He did, but all they said is our case is still at NVC awaiting to be scheduled :lol: Didn't provide any more information than that. So wait we will and I will call the NVC later today God Willing.

You don't have to be concerned about the visa bulletin. That's for the NUMERICALLY LIMITED number of visas- IR1/CR1 has no such limitation and is always available.

It's amazing how we all start as naive and novices at the beginning of the process and by the end of the process I am sure all of us can become immigration consultants!
