Is there a topic that shows current interview dates?

I can tell you that when ours went to “ready” on a Thursday the next Wednesday-Friday all had open dates..

So my guess is you can probably schedule within a week after ready status. 

It is no longer just on Thursdays. It’s also Wednesday and Friday some weeks.

Does this sound right to you guys? I have called the NVC three times now and heard the same answer from all of them, but it just seems so backward:

 

1. I need to pay the MRV fee (DS 160 completed). Like some other countries, I have to pay it in cash at a bank and get a receipt. The flow says I need to download a specific pdf (deposit slip) to bring that is generated during the flow of scheduling my interview online.

2. There are no appointments and no way for me to download any pdf!

3. NVC says they can’t provide me with the slip until there are appointments available.

4. The problem is that generating the pdf, bringing it to the bank, submitting it to their system will take a few business days.

5. So...you’re telling me that I need to wait for dates to open up so I can take a step that will take a few days? By that time the appointments will be taken!!!

 

So frustrating.

hopefully these may be of some assistance. it looks like you have to wait for your P4- USCIS forwards the approved petition to the Department of State’s National Visa Center, which then sends it to the Immigrant Visa Unit of the U.S. Consulate General, Ciudad Juarez.  The Immigrant Visa Unit will then send you our Instructions for K-1/K-2 applicants

 

but it is hard to say since i cant see your timeline

RoC sent 10/30/21

NOA 11/16/21

Check Cashed 11/18/21

Biometrics Waived 01/19/2022

Thank you very much (I also visited those sites and it didn’t get me anywhere). I do believe I have to wait for that. I apologize for hounding this site with questions. I’m just stuck by myself (my fiancée is out of her country spending some final time with her family, different time zone, limited internet access...) and it gets hard and lonely with no one in real life to reach out to or vent. 😕
