Does anyone know updates about Dhaka embassy lately. Case completed march 23rd. The person got cc 10 days before mine got her interview scheduled 2months ago. Getting impatient & the journey is frustrating.

I would contact the embassy yourself and ask, the person who you mention got scheduled seems like a normal processing time.

How can I contact the embassy?? I did call them quite a few times they refused to talk over phone  every time I called. Then requested for expedite te process but I was told Dhaka embassy is not able to do it because it will be unfair to the people who are waiting before me!!

oh that's odd, I guess each embassy is different.  Mine has an email address and they reply within 24 hours!  Maybe see if they have a contact email address?
Have you confirmed that your file actually arrived at the embassy?  Have you spoken to NVC?  The reason I suggest this is that unless you have an expedite. it should be the NVC liaising with the embassy to advise you of an interview date.  In my experience its only the embassy who contact you for this instead if you have an expedite.

No my papers still waiting at nvc. Yes I do call nvc almost everyday. Nvc rep told me my paper would not send to Dhaka until they sat up an appointment with Dhaka embassy. Dhaka is backed up that's what they have been telling me for last 10weeks.

oh wow, I guess the person before you may have gotten a spot that had previously been cancelled?  That's what I got... they were booked up for all of may except one spot on 4th may which I was given.  I wish you all the best, if they say 10 weeks is that its taking then at least they have given a timeframe.  You can only hope and pray for someone to cancel or free up an earlier date.  It sounds like you've done everything you are able to so far.

having worked in a company where we had "specialist medicals" (i worked in the rail industry), I can totally understand why a GP can't just do the tests.  I saw so many who passed people for things they shouldn't have, and when they went to a specialised doctor who was approved for those medicals they came out with different results.  I paid $475NZ for my medical and I've done a dive medical for around $300 before also. These doctors do have specific training on what to look for on standard tests that  GP might miss.  It might be hard to see when you haven't been on the other side, and I too would rather not pay the money I did, but seriously some GPs just aren't smart enough for those tests and how to interpret the results.  Harsh but true.

Aah well - dont want to bad name anyone on a public forum but nothing special about the Doctor here.  He just wanted to breeze through and more intd in my personal story...(for once i did not want to share)

Congratulations! Happy you got a date. Not fair that it has to be so far away, considering you got your CC very early this month. It seems you are the only one so far with interview date. When did you call? I called this morning but no date at the time. Is there anyone else with interview date?
