Hi,

 

We also got our Interview letter just now. 

 

CC : Mar 8th

Interview Date: May 31st

Consulate: Mumbai

 

Feeling kinda miffed though that we got the last day in May And we were approved on 8th March. I'm really happy for others that got their dates in the first half of May, but I'm also perplexed by why they'd schedule ours so late .. 

Does anyone know if an expedite request works in this case ? 

 

Thanks, and congratulations to all others - and good luck to everyone waiting - I think the Mumbai floodgates have opened today.

Congrats

That’s so strange, a similar thing happened to us when we submitted our documents, everyone else was getting CC after about 1 week but ours took 3 weeks. It wouldn’t hurt to call the embassy, we call them all the time, but I don’t know if they can help much until NVC has scheduled the interview. You could also  call NVC again and tell them you know other people that have received them and ask why yours is delayed in spite of the earlier PD and CC date. We did that with asking why our CC was not happening and a few days later it came through.

Thank you for your suggestion. 

 

I called NVC and they said I’m in line for an interview since CC March 6th. 

He said when the embassy sends the available dates then NVC fills them in order of CC date. He didn’t mention anything about priority date and I assume this info is for CR-1 category. 

 

So I said I’ve seen that others from NZ embassy have interviews and their CC date is after mine. He said he can’t verify that unless he has those case details and couldn’t give me a reason why but said perhaps I was skipped and I will be in the next round of scheduling. 

And he said people say can anything on the internet and that people tell them this all the time that others get dates earlier than others. Which I understand they probably do hear this over and over again but it doesn’t help. 

Obviously we just want to know why and we want to know when we will be scheduled. 

 

So nothing much I can do but wait.

Any of you all accompanying hubby or wife to interview?...I wanna go back soooooooo bad 😿

I'm going to be with my husband for his interview (outside of course). I can't imagine not being there for support. I know it's not possibly for everyone and I'm thankful to have the chance.

Hi guys; unless I'm mistaken I thought NVC books the embassy appointment for the applicant and then you have to book your medical exam appointment after that but before the interview. Our case was completed on March 8th and NVC still says they are waiting for slots to open up in Nairobi embassy for them to book the appointment for us.

Waat, looks like they gave us conflicting information, nvc told us they had forwarded the case to Nairobi embassy and they'd handle it from there, including booking the interview. We haven't even paid the visa fee since we gotta have an appointment first. Did you pay the visa fee to nvc or no?

Hey! 

 

Does anybody know if the panel physician send your medical examination results directly to the US embassy or they will give it to you to hand-carry to the visa interview? Thanks

It depends. Some send it to the embassy and some others ask you to pick it up. When you call them for appointment, ask them about it and arrange your stay according to that. Some cities don't have panel hospitals, mine didn't so I had to travel to a different city to get it done.

Mine doesnt have a panel hospital either. Do you know why they send it directly sometimes and sometimes they Dont?

@Rohit07 if you have not received interview date yet. Send an Expedite request to email to nvcexpedite@state.gov with your Case number in the subject line.

 

In the body mention case number, Beneficiary name and date of birth and visa category.

 

Explain your situation, how you have been skipped twice for interview even though your CC was Feb 1st.

 

Explain how this is causing you hardship in  reuniting with your spouse.

 

Do not mention that others are getting interview ahead of you, but instead explain the reason why it is causing you hardship.

 

NVC will forward your expedite request to Mumbai embassy and you will get a response in 7 days.

 

Whether you get approved for expedite or not, this will bring to Mumbai embassys notice that a spouse visa Beneficiary has been waiting since Feb 1st for an interview. You will atleast be considered for next month if not May itself.

Thanks for the tip! Was able to get through to an NVC supervisor yesterday and he was really helpful. He recommended we send an expedite request too, but also said that we can include that others are getting scheduled ahead of us, if that is what we are seeing. We've sent the email across last night so here's hoping some positive action comes out of that. Also looking into reaching out to our local NY State senator...

 

Sigh.
