Our K-1 was approved by USCIS on 9/10, and we're now waiting for the petition to be sent to the NVC. Does anyone know what appointment dates are currently being scheduled? I’m planning a trip and would like to get an idea of when her interview might be, so I can plan accordingly. I know it's hard to forecast but any insights would be appreciated! Thanks!
