How to expedite at embassy

[Mrs.H.Ajofotan 0]

My expedite request for NVC was approved today prior to being DQ. They said they would send it directly to the embassy. Will the embassy schedule my interview? How do I apply for an expedite at the embassy? Do I schedule myself and then request an emergency appointment, or email the embassy to request it? Thank you for any advice.

It varies by Consulate.  I would contact the consulate to request an expedite and ask for instructions (under normal circumstances, NVC would have scheduled your interview).

I don't think NVC schedules interviews. The embassy does.

Once they send it to the embassy, the embassy will send u a Packet 4 email. If they don't automatically give a date for interview in that email, u need to create an account on the USTravelDocs website to pick ur date faster. U can only check for appt twice per day. If the Petitioner is in the US, they can call numerous times at +1 703-520-2575. My husband kept checking the website for 9 days with no luck. I called every 15 minutes on one day and got us an interview date

Thank you so much. Can you explain what a packet 4 email is?

It's an email sent to you from the Embassy telling you what the next steps will be. It's called Packet 4

I expedited for medical reasons. However, I was denied 5 times before I researched how to submit it.

I have an emergency medical condition as well as an extreme emotional hardship in our family. The details are too personal to share on that one.

Write ur expedite letter in a word document and save it as a pdf. Then copy and paste the same letter into the body of ur email. Attach the pdf to the email. Attach ur other supporting documents as a pdf also but label them according when u save them. Make sure the case number is in the subject line. Your email first paragraph should give a little history on ur case. Second paragraph should e plain ur emergency and y u need him to be expedited. Focus more on ur needs not the beneficiary.

So I submitted my expedite but I forgot to add my other doctors note has anyone ever sent a duplicate one with more info ? 

[Mrs.H.Ajofotan 0]

I waited for denial before submitting a new request with more information, but that doesn't mean it has to be done that way. They do ask that you not submit duplicates.

Ok i may just wait for denial again then. Thank you
