Je suis réveillé depuis hier à partir de 6h du matin, j'ai laissé un avis sur l'ambassade de ce qui s'est passé. Les gars, je suis prêt à dormir un peu plus maintenant que je ne stresse plus

Congratulations

lol that's funny. Do you have any idea how long your friend had to wait for the interview after being DQd?

 

Unfortunately not. My friend is military who is stationed overseas, so they went through a completely different process than most do. Her whole thing was like 4 months, start to finish, the lucky bint.

Hi!

I just received my IL. My journey is as follows:

Submission: Jun 7th (This was basically my 3rd submissions as my documents were flagged invalid the first two times. Each time it was a waiting time of 2 months)

DQ: Aug 16th

IL: Sep 1st

Interview date: Oct 21st

 

Hope it helps,

Just got my husband's IL!! BLUF timeline:

NVC submission: 8 Jun

DQ: 12 Aug (received HST 1030 12 Aug)

IL:  1 Sep (received HST at 0530 1 Sep)

Interview: 20 Oct, 0830 LND

 

It's my impression they "bundle" DQ cases, and then assign them interviews in batch. So if you're DQ near the beginning of the month, most likely you'll get your interview on the 1st or 2nd the following (for London, anyway). I did some timeline stalking, and it seems a batch of people tend to get their IL's about the same time, the 1st or 2nd each month.

I read somewhere on the NVC website that they assign interviews once a month, after the consulate inform them of available dates. I’ve tried to find it again but can’t remember where I read it. But I agree with you, they seem to assign interviews in batches for the following month every 4 weeks. 
 

For info, I was DQ’d on the 29th July and received my IL today. 
 

DQ - July 29th

IL - September 1st

Interview - October 5th.

Has anyone been DQ'd without a DQ letter? We have all documents approved, notification email from CEAC that something changed, but no official letter.  Yet everything applicable says "Approved" or "Paid."

 

DQ without a letter - July 19th

IL -  Waiting

I didn’t get a DQ ‘letter’. Just a message on the CEAC website saying that I had been Document Qualified.
