I got RFE at USCIS stage but after that as well NVC has been super slow in appointing interview date, been almost 2 months of idle time. Till last month everyone was getting interview date for the month after, without fail. I dont see anyone here with CC date before 20th Sept 2018, for mumbai Consulate. But God knows what went wrong last month that they scheduled only a handful of interviews and those too were very randomly selected.
Mumbai generally is not slow, majority of the people with CR1 filing from January 18 are already there in the states with their spouses. Its just some people are running outta luck. 

I totally hear you. CC 9/27/18. Yet to hear from NVC about interview date (Mumbai). I think there needs to be more clarity in this process. The NVC customer representatives have no clue as to what's going on. This whole process sucks and I am tired of calling them and receiving completely useless semi-automated answers. Hang in there, pal. Better times are coming.

Totally agree. The official position (from what the NVC supervisor told me) is that interviews are scheduled per the CC priority date - but there is clear evidence here on VJ for the same consulate and class IR-1/CR-1 that the CC priority date position of NVC is necessarily not holding water.  I was told also by this supervisor that sometime consulates allocate slots with a different share for each visa class for a certain month (say more employment cases one month vs immediate relative etc.) and that the system is completely automated and they have no human interaction in scheduling at NVC. Zero visibility and predictability. I'll wait a few days and approach my congressman.

That is a good sign! I know it's hard... The morning he messaged me saying "we need to talk" I knew immediately, we didn't get approved, YET! But with us too, they kept his passport. He already did his finger printing. Now, just waiting... It's been one week... 

I know I was afraid I would ask for sponsor since I make enough (Full time more than min wage) to sponsor 2 people and me, but I can't afford an apartment on my own  in my area. I live north of Seattle and still can't afford a 1 bedroom apartment on my own, hence apartment mate.=\

 

But he was telling me that he felt like he screwed up since he didn't mention to the interviewing officer our evidence of our relationship. I told him if they didn't ask for it that means they don't need it.

 

He thinks they updated the address for where the green card would be sent too. Does anyone know how we can confirm this? I was thinking of emailing the embassy to confirm or something, but I told him to keep that letter for when he travels here. Can't recall if he told me that he gave them the letter, but I know he has it right now. I also told him that to keep the letter on top or keep as the 1st page in the binder as a reminder that they need to see it.

I agree I have been looking at several VJ threads and looking at several timelines and not sure how the other consulates are doing but with the Mumbai consulate  things were running smoothly until what looks like mid to late September  prior to that for the most part you would get a CC then interview letter in 3-4 weeks then interview 6-8 weeks from CC date.  But since September it looks like the interview scheduling process/system drastically slowed down.  The NVC is still giving CC on a regular basis.  Doesn't make any sense to me.

So turns out the embassy updated our case twice after the interview: once after they received the additional documents they asked for and the today but still AP. What’s that mean y’all think..? 🤔
