CR1 Embassy Interview Appointment not available on USTRAVELDOCS website

[banu2019 23]

Hello,

 

My nepali wife has received her email for interview appointment at the embassy for August 2nd. Part of the instructions say to create an account on the US Travel Docs website (she did). That site mentions the soonest interview date to be Sept. 13th and mentions the fee of $260.

 

She called the embassy and emailed them as well but no one can answer us. Are we supposed to pay for the Aug 2nd interview appt.? How best to navigate this do you think?

 

Thanks for reading, hope this is the right forum

Did her instruction email say to schedule an interview or did it say she must register a delivery address?

Are you sure that's not for K1 applicants at the embassy?  There's no fee to be paid for CR1 after DQ, aside from the medical exam fee.  Also, no need to book another interview appointment when your wife already has an interview slot for August.

So it mentions K3 visa holders register for this appointment, which we have overlooked. this is not our visa type so i think this confirms what you're telling us, and we can disregard this. thank you for all of your input

The only other fee for a CR1 after interview is the GC fee of 220
