The NVC scheduled my parents interview. They will just notify us the petitioners.

I think if your case was expedited, then you can schedule the interview yourself. But if your case was not expedited, then you have to wait for NVC to schedule the interview. Most of us got an expedite request approved, so now yes, we are trying to schedule the interview.

My mother-in-law was scheduled by the NVC for Nov 23, 2021, but had to wait an additional 2 months for the sputum test.  Now that she is clear, we have to schedule the interview ourselves, which makes no sense to me.  Would've been better if St Luke's just sent the neg test to the embassy and had the interview rescheduled themselves, but that would make too much sense for the government...

Hi What's your Priority date and DOcument qualified date ? Mine is Mar 2019 and Oct 2020. I'm waiting for NVC to schedule interview for my mom. I'm debating whether to wait for NVC or send expedited request.

I didn’t know that. I had mine expedited before but they didn’t approve it. You guys are lucky!

Please help - IR5 medical exam expiring 02/26/2022. My medical exam from St. Luke’s is expiring, but still no interview date from US embassy in Manila.
PD: 01/04/2019 (IR5)     DQ: 2020
Original interview date: 10/08/2021 (I showed up with my husband but didn’t get interviewed because I needed an additional test. My husband luckily got his visa approved.)   I have been calling USA Travel Docs and checking online since first week of December 2021, when my medical exam was finally released. My case has been “Escalated” but still no luck. How can I get an expedited interview? Any advice would be appreciated.
