They will tell you the same thing because they are looking at the same information you could be looking at. There is no promised date that it will be complete. There is a "window" to which they are projecting it to be complete but they are waiting on all the background checks and such to return so they can wrap up and give you an answer. Here is where they are getting their answer.

I would lower your expectations and have a little more patience. Calling every day is not going to get your case approved any faster. Just saying

I don’t call everyday, maybe once a week. They told me yesterday everything is on file they just have to wait for my ambassy to let them know they need more case🤷🏻‍♀️. They can’t tell me when they will let them know that’s all.

When I spoke to the supervisor I asked how long it was going to be and was the checks complete.. she had me on hold for like 5 minutes.. told me to call back in 4 days.. then it was complete

Checking ceac.state.gov with your case number will inform you if your file has left NVC for the embassy. Again, next shipment is Tuesday. That would be a good time to visit the website to determine if it has left NVC. Otherwise it will be another two weeks after that. Less stressful the spending time on the phone getting the same answer over and over. Just saying.

A little update for all hopefuls! I had my interview last Wednesday and got my visa approved today! (There was a delay as the embassy awaited my medical results.)

good luck to everyone waiting!

Congrats! 
Was there a reason NOA2 to interview took so long in your case? I thought this was the quicker part especially in London where you can schedule your own interview online. Just trying to set my own expectations, especially as we are also dealing with London.

Yep, I was away for two months meaning I couldn't attend an interview sooner.

Hello! I am on the ceac.state.gov website attempting to start the DS-160 application. But I can’t access it. After I select the country & enter the CAPTCHA code it keeps sending me to a screen saying “Session Timed Out”. Not once have I been able to access the application. Has anyone else experienced this? What am I doing wrong? Please help me!

Lots of people have had issues with the online DS-160 application (though my wife didn't have any problems). About the only thing that's worked is trying something different in how you're getting to the site.

 

Have you tried a different web browser? From a computer instead of a phone/tablet (or vis versa)? Somewhere with a different internet connection?

Ok, so it’s not just us. I’m using a google chromebook so it defaults to google chrome browser & my fiancé tried on his laptop using internet explorer. I guess I’ll try on my work desktop computer tmrw 🤞🏽🤞🏽
