Agree! Sounds like you’re in a different line. They’re definitely trying to get the Ukrainians through quickly but they probably have such a huge workload that they can’t get through that. when I went to my interview there were two windows for Germans and three windows for Ukrainians.

Shouldn't they be able to tell if it's Frankfurt by the first few letters of their NVC case number? or is it different for transferred cases from Russia and Ukraine?

What does your ceac status say? Does it say ready? https://ceac.state.gov/CEACStatTracker/Status.aspx

Thanks to everyone being so encouraging! The question didn’t come up at the interview ☺️ it was way more relaxed than I thought it would be

I finally got my interview date for my IR-1 visa and naturally I am not going to spend the next four weeks worrying until it’s finally here. 😄 I read in a lawyers article that a reason for denying an IR-1 visa could be a big age difference. My husband and I are 16 years apart in age and met when I was 23. Could this be seen as negative? Is there something I could do preemptively to avoid anything like that? Bringing extra pictures with our families and such to show that everyone in the family is supportive of us? I’m so worried now 😄

I got an email two days ago saying that my case has gotten documentarily qualified and the NVC is now working on scheduling my interview at the embassy. When logging into ceac it says police certificate (Germany) missing. Although my police certificate has been submitted and accepted further down in the same list. I’ve already tried researching and contacting NVC per mail and contact form but I can’t figure out what to do. Could the be worried my police certificate might expire before my interview? It expires February 2023 (it will be two years old by that time) I’ve requested a new police certificate just to be safe so I can end up bringing it to the interview but should I upload it or no?
