I touched on this in another forum-I spoke with someone at the Dublin Embassy & I told her that I want to attend my man's interview-she shaid they would do their best to schedule it for when I am there..............but I don't know what kind of letter I should write.

I don't want to come off arrogant, and I certainly don't want to annoy them. Does anyone think I should just wait to see whan the interview is set for and then call them instead of writing? I also found out my man is going to be out of the country for a week promoting a film-can I put that in the letter as well???? :wacko::blink:

any suggestions?

I did call & they said I should include a little note-explaining that I will be there such and such a date-but I want him to send the packet back in asap.

So I am wondering if I should just wait to see what date they pick-then call & say when I will be there...........I am driving myself crazy :wacko:

I know all Embassy's are different, but I had e-mailed the Embassy in Jamaica asking if we could have my fiances interview for a certian time and they sent me an e-mail back saying that once they assign and interview date if that date is not suitable for us then to call them and they will check to see at that time if there is a more suitable date.

Once we got the interview date it was perfect timing and we will not have to change it....so maybe you should wait till they assign the date and then if it is not suitable for you try to contact them about it.

Like I said all Embassy's are different though

Why dont you email the embassy and send a copy of the email to your fiance to include with packet 3. That way the Embassy can try to accomodate you as best possible.

Good Luck

All you can do is ask... it certainly won't hurt to send them a note attached to the application saying you'll be there on X date/s... otherwise you can wait and see when they set the interview and plan to be there at that time. It's not arrogant - it's a fairly common request, and they may or may not be able to accommodate you.

I wrote a letter to the Embassy explaining that my now-husband will be coming to Poland and would like to attend the interview with me, I gave them the dates. Later I called and when I was scheduling the interview, the lady saw the letter I sent before and gave us the date I wanted. If I hadn't written the letter my interview would have been month later! So it's always worth a shot, I think.

I think so too :yes:

I figure it can't hurt-I am going to call them in a week once I know they have rec'd the letter-they have been really nice to me so far ;)

I did the oppossite in that I asked for dates NOT to be interviewed on as I had to go to Budapest for a week and a half and didn't want to wait to send in my notice of readiness until I got back, nor did I want to be scheduled for an interview while I was away (even though it would have been unlikely to have gotten an interview so quickly but I didn't want to take that chance) so I included a note with my notice of readiness & DS-230 Part I which I sent to the US Embassy in Dublin two weeks ago to say I would be out of the country and mentioned that I would be available for interview from April 18th onwards. That (in theory) would give them time to process my application while I was away.

Back in-country now and nothing received from the Embassy while I was away (which while disappointing is still better than getting an interview date and not turning up cos I wasn't here) so I'm just watching the post now for a letter with my interview date.....
