Shouldn't you choose option 2? Your appointment is already scheduled, you are registering for the passport return? I'm just waiting for my interview to be scheduled so I haven't go through this yet. Someone who has done this before probably can help out.

I will try option 2 right now!  Stay tuned 

This is what I have done..,

https://NVC.state.gov.interview

”prepare for interview “

under step 2, “list of US Embassies and Consulates”

Chose Montreal 

step 1: Register your interview 

(goes to an external site)

I sign in, using my email and password 

Select IV Service: (choices below)

- I need to register an immigrant visa appointment 

- I have received a letter/email from the consular section with instructions to schedule an immigrant visa appointment 

- I have received a letter from the consular section with instructions to register or schedule a  K Visa appointment

- I have received a letter to register or schedule a Diversity Lottery visa appointment 

I chose the first option 

Next section titled “ New Applicant”, I fill out all my personal details including passport number, date of birth, phone number, email address, case number and DS-260 #.

At the end in green, I click “create Applicant”

Next screen shows “ The Immigrant VISA case number provided is not ready to schedule an appointment.”

I am perplexed!!

No, I have asked our lawyer if she has come across this before. ( fingers crossed )

I think someone had similar problem, you just had to wait a bit or try again later.

Thanks !  I just hope it won’t be too late!

Ugh that's super frustrating - so do you get the error page when you enter your #? 

 

When you register you get to choose where you want your visa sent via mail (standard or courier)  - I think it also allows them to confirm your appointment. 

It lets me sign in, and I fill in all the details like date of birth, passport number etc, then I click submit on the end, and error message.  

Thanks for for the explanation!

Mine is also June 21st!  I had trouble at first registering mine, it kept saying that I didn't have an interview date yet (even though I received the email) but after a few days it allowed me to. Did you try to contact the number/email on the error page?

Yes, I contacted the help desk and they gave me a “non” answer, answer!  What does the registering actually do? 

No!  I still haven’t been able to register, and I don’t know what to do!

Good morning everyone! To those CR1-1R1 who already have or done with their interview, wld you mind sharing the dates? I just want to see if there is a day of the week they assigned for CR1-IR1 interviews. Thank you so much! 😊

Mine is scheduled for June 21st!  

 I received my Interview appointment of June 21,2019 in Montreal.  I have followed the steps as per the email.  I keep trying to “register my Interview “, and get the following error message each time, “ The Immigrant VISA case number provided is not ready to schedule an appointment “.  I am really confused!  I have sent a help desk ticket, and they say an 8 week turnaround.  Has anyone had this error, and if so how did you fix it?  

Thanks
