That's great news! When is you interview?

Unfortunately, no interview letter for me and my DQ is December 28th, 2022. 

Great news! Congratulations. But what I'm baffled by is that they had stated for a couple of months that they were processing Jan 2023, but you (Dec 2022) had not received IL until now....

I haven't received an IL yet. I am happy for those that received IL because I understand the stress. But, I am devastated that I've been skipped again. During last batch of interviews(April 2024), my lawyers have reached out to NVC and Montreal but received standard response that I am "in the queue waiting for interview to be scheduled".

Complete and total devastation.

Have you changed or updated any part of your file. I know people that have changed their address or added a new SO/child and that has changed they DQ date. When you check CEAC do you still have the same DQ date?

I haven't changed any part of my file. The last NVC email I received on June 28, 2024 stated that I am documentarily complete at NVC and has been since 28-DEC-2022. Other than the email, which website will show my DQ date?

I am "EB-3 Skilled Workers" with priority date of July 26, 2021

Then that's why you didn't get an IL in the April batch, your PD wasn't current!

 

Seems very odd that your lawyers haven't told you why you haven't had an interview, and why they reached out to NVC and the consulate when surely they knew that there was no visa available to you?

 

Your PD only became current last month.

How did you determine that it was current only from last month?

Looking at visa bulletin, I have been current for a very long time. 

March E3 was 08SEP22

April, May, June E3 was 22NOV22

July and August E3 was 01DEC21

 

My priority date(26JUL21) is before all of these dates. My understanding is that I am current. This correct?

Oh apologies, I totally misread your PD! Where were you born? And definitely EB-3 SW, not EB-3 OW? Might be worth starting your own thread as this is an EB-2 one.

Born in Canada and EB-3 SW.

I know that many EB-1 and EB-3 use this thread along with the Google spreadsheet for tracking/questions. Not sure if another thread would be needed.
