Hong Kong Embassy - how long to schedule interview after DQ

[bite2019 1]

Hi anyone got challenged for domicile?  As i am in hk with my husband, he got challenged and needed to submit my plane tickets to show my plan to relocate.  We submitted and wonder of anyone got any further issues than this.  Thank you.

At what stage was he challenged? At the embassy or prior to that? We were asked for additional documents for "proof of domicile" in the US, at the NVC stage but once we got to embassy interview stage all of that had been accepted and was in order.

We got DQ on July 14, 2022.  Applying for an IR1 visa. Any idea how long the wait for interview might be?  Seems like it used to be about a month, but not sure now, as they had shut the embassy for a few months earlier in the year.

@Madrismo for us it was about a month to get the letter that we had an appointment at the HK embassy. Then the appointment was a month after that. So about 2 months from DQ to the actual interview.  Interview was June 28, 2022.

@RDWP oh that’s good to hear. I’m guessing you got DQ around May? That’s a pretty decent time frame. Was expecting a backlog. Any issues with the interview?

@Madrismo

I looked up our exact dates to give you a bit more context. It was just over a month between each. 

DQ: April 4, 2022

Notice of interview: May 17, 2022

Interview: June 28, 2022 

I hope this helps you and best of luck to you!!

For F4 visa, nothing specify as long as you can prove the siblings' relationship with the documents and tell what you know about your sibling,  such as his/her job, when you last meet him/her, where he/her lives, and how long has he/her been in the US, etc....

 

BTW,  may you share your timeline?  How long have you been waiting after DQ? Does the interview be delayed by the pandemic? When is your interview?
