Thank you, it was useful. Unfortunately for my country the message says: Non-Visa Processing Post

I forgot to mention that the available dates for a possible interview change pretty often on the atlas site, so it is quite confusing, For example, yesterday it was 28 of August and today it is 7th of July.

Hi all, I had a tourist visa 20 years ago and I want to apply for a new one. I live in a non-ESTA country, in Europe. After submitting my DS-160 and before paying the fee, I've noticed on https://atlas.my.salesforce-sites.com/ that it takes at least 5 months to have an interview scheduled. The problem is I would have to travel to US in 2 months. My question is: is this timeline accurate (about 5 months) or should I pay the fee hoping that the interview will take place faster than 5 months? On the State Department website it is suggested that it may take between 3 to 5 days to have an interview scheduled... based on the workload. Thx all. P.S. No luck in contacting the embassy via phone.
