Immigrant visa case number not ready

[Shelly18 2]

 

 

 I received my Interview appointment of June 21,2019 in Montreal.  I have followed the steps as per the email.  I keep trying to “register my Interview “, and get the following error message each time, “ The Immigrant VISA case number provided is not ready to schedule an appointment “.  I am really confused!  I have sent a help desk ticket, and they say an 8 week turnaround.  Has anyone had this error, and if so how did you fix it?  

 

Thanks

I think someone had similar problem, you just had to wait a bit or try again later.

No, I have asked our lawyer if she has come across this before. ( fingers crossed )

You're selecting the first option right? The one where you just need to get your passport back? Your interview date is already set.

This is what I have done..,

https://NVC.state.gov.interview

 

”prepare for interview “

 

under step 2, “list of US Embassies and Consulates”

Chose Montreal 

 

step 1: Register your interview 

(goes to an external site)

 

I sign in, using my email and password 

 

Select IV Service: (choices below)

 

- I need to register an immigrant visa appointment 

- I have received a letter/email from the consular section with instructions to schedule an immigrant visa appointment 

- I have received a letter from the consular section with instructions to register or schedule a  K Visa appointment

- I have received a letter to register or schedule a Diversity Lottery visa appointment 

 

I chose the first option 

 

Next section titled “ New Applicant”, I fill out all my personal details including passport number, date of birth, phone number, email address, case number and DS-260 #.

 

At the end in green, I click “create Applicant”

 

Next screen shows “ The Immigrant VISA case number provided is not ready to schedule an appointment.”

 

I am perplexed!!

Shouldn't you choose option 2? Your appointment is already scheduled, you are registering for the passport return? I'm just waiting for my interview to be scheduled so I haven't go through this yet. Someone who has done this before probably can help out.
