Hi Thomas, sorry for my the late reply 😅. I have my interview on April 25. So I can tell you for sure after.. A few members on Visajourney told me it's not gonna be a problem. I never got an email back after I sent the signed checklist and DS 160 form. I just paid and scheduled the interview on usvisa-info. I don't think you're gonna hear back from them so I think you should just schedule a date..
