It's nice to see the Embassy speed up a little! I had my package in 2016 in four days too. Take your whole packet with you in your carry-on when you travel.

Does anyone know if it is ok to go to you're own MD, and have any needed vaccinations updated? My fiance said that it was less expensive than getting at the Medical?

If your vaccinations need to be updated, you're more than fine to get boosters at your own doc. I did that too. Costed me $10 instead of $35-$50 at the medical.

Hello everybody! 

I am looking for some help! I am trying to book an interview date for my interview at the Dutch embassy. When I try to pay the visa application fee I can not click on anything anymore and it says: ''There are no available appointments at this time. Please check back in a few days as the Consular Section will open more appointments.''
Now I wonder if I am doing something wrong or if I just have to wait until they open op more appointments? Does anyone from the Netherlands have any experience with this? 

Hopefully someone can help me! We have been waiting for so long. And we finally thought we could 'just' book an interview date. But HELAAS PINDAKAAS haha

You'll just have to wait. I know that 2 other people had trouble with that as well. I had scheduled my interview date, but wanted an earlier one. Did manage to get one, but at some point in between, all dates were gone and there was nothing to select. I think they only open a certain number of days at a time, or a date opens up due to someone cancelling (which I think is what happened with the date I was able to reschedule to).

Congrats to all those approved and good luck to those waiting for interviews. 

 

My husband arrived here in May 2015 under a CR-1, just got his removal of conditions completed and 10 year greencard.  A couple of days ago he applied for citizenship. The process is long, expensive and full of red tape but it's worth it!
