Awaiting interview date

[Maam1819 6]

The NVC approved our financial support documents and I got an email stating I’m waiting for the US Consulate to give an interview date. I’m trying to fill out my timeline and I’m unsure of what area I’m putting the date of this email? “Left NVC”? Apx. How long does it take to receive a interview date from the US Consulate in Morocco?

I need original tax transcripts? We uploaded them online I’m not sure what they mean by originals for that because you can just print them off the IRS website.  Also, the translations were emailed to me by the translation company.  So would they need to mail a hard copy for them to be considered originals?

On the  translations we had done, the translator  always emailed them, AND mailed them to us, so we would have their Pen - Ink signature and they certified seal - sticker on the cover sheet to show they are certififed translators.

I always stapled their work on the certified copy we were submitting for one thing or another.

for NVC, you only need digital copies uploaded to the CEAC portal.

BUT, for the interview, you will need the originals and original translations of all the documents that are not in english.

 

You don't need the affidavit of support during the interview as they never asked for it in the past. I always recommend to take the affidavit of support you signed with all supporting documents (tax transcripts and all) to the interview, just in case
