My question is this... will we receive a letter with the interview date before the biometrics or do we wait until after biometrics? Does anyone know about how long that could take (we are going through Denver, CO)? I am trying to plan a trip out of the country (USC), but of course need to be here for my husbands interview. Thanks in advance!

Yes, you will receive a letter for your interview appointment and it will come some months after the biometrics, but this is only if you'll have the interview. Some cases, like of those who are in California got approved without an interview.

Look here: http://www.visajourney.com/timeline/aosstats.php so you'll have an idea of how long it could take.

Hi,

I got processed through Denver as well and received a letter with my interview date only 3-4 weeks after I had my biometrics taken. And from getting this letter to the actual interview date it was 7-8 weeks.

So that should give you plenty of time and possibilities to plan your trip.

Good luck!

It all depends. If you get your biometrics notice in a few weeks after you file, it doesn't necessarily have that much of a bearing on when you will get your interview notice. It took us 3.5 months from when we filed to our interview date. For some people its 6 months...a year, etc. All you can do is wait. If you are going to be going out of the country soon, it shouldn't be a problem. I also noticed that your hubby is Cuban. It may take him longer than someone else but it might not at all. Good luck!

"...My hair's mostly wind,

My eyes filled with grit

My skin's white then brown

My lips chapped and split

I've lain on the prairie and heard grasses sigh

I've stared at the vast open bowl of the sky

I've seen all the castles and faces in clouds

My home is the prairie and for that I am proud…

If You're not from the Prairie, you can't know my soul

You don't know our blizzards; you've not fought our cold

You can't know my mind, nor ever my heart

Unless deep within you there's somehow a part…

A part of these things that I've said that I know,

The wind, sky and earth, the storms and the snow.

Best say that you have - and then we'll be one,

For we will have shared that same blazing sun." - David Bouchard

well in my case it seems a lil bit messed up, as I had my biometrics taken on october 5th and the letter for interview came on october 6th (notice date october 2nd, so even before my biometrics were taken). so you know, you'll never know :) and my interview date is nov. 15.

good luck.

Maybe your NBC/local office is not so busy that's why they're able to set an interview appointment for you right away. What's your local office?
