Time from being documentarily qualified by NVC to Notice of an Interview Date

[Meagan and Andrew 1]

Hello,

 

My husband and I received a notice from the NVC telling us that we are now documentarily qualified and that they will work with the embassy in Johannesburg to schedule a visa interview. We got this email over two months ago now and have still not heard anything about an interview. Does anyone have any idea of how long it takes to get an interview scheduled in South Africa for the IR1/CR1 visa?

 

Any information would be super helpful! Thanks so much!

My husband (South African) and I received the same email with that wording May 8th and we are still waiting. I have tried calling and submitting inquiries to NVC, no response yet. I emailed the consulate in Joburg (Johannesburgiv@state.gov), also no response yet. Its so frustrating not knowing when the interview will happen, sorry we can't be more help! Hope you guys hear something soon🤞

Hi everyone!

 

We heard that my South African husband was documentarily qualified on April 8th and today (July 22) we have finally heard that his interview will be on August 21st!! Such a relief to finally have a date after such a long process!! 

 

Its seeming to me that it takes about 3.5 months from hearing you are DQ to getting an interview in joburg. Hope this information helps and that you all hear soon!

How long was it since you submitted ds260, documents, and  i864 until you got a “documentarian qualified” I’m trying to figure out how long our wait is going to be

[Meagan and Andrew 1]

We submitted everything to the NVC on December 7th, but they kept coming back to request additional tax transcripts etc. We heard that we were officially documentarily qualified on April 8th. I hope that helps!

Yesterday (August 22) we received an email from NVC that my brother has been scheduled for his interview for the end of September. Overall, it took about two months from being documentarily qualified to getting the interview date. We are thrilled. Hope yours come soon too. Good luck.
