Wow nice I'm really happy to hear that for you. I'll definitely get started on getting all the documents prepared now. I was really curious on how long we would have to wait to get an interview date so it shouldn't be too much longer now. We should be able to make it work with whatever date they give us, my SO will be able to take a direct flight from Mexico City so it should be relatively easy to make it work.

@StressedSloth I'm curious if you have an update on if you got an interview yet, I am in the exact same boat as you. I got the approval from NVC a couple weeks after you.

That sounds good thank you and I will also check those forums. It's unfortunate how long the process takes, 1 year to just get the approval and many more months just to get the interview scheduled.

We submitted the petition in October of 2022, I believe USCIS received our petition exactly on Nov 1st 2022. In October of 2023, 1 year later we got USCIS approved our petition.

It doesn't really say anything, we completed ds-160 and we found a website to pay https://ais.usvisa-info.com/ but we can't pay because all the questions make sure that you got an interview scheduled before you pay, which is opposite of how I thought it would work. I can't pay through the CEAC website because I don't have an "invoice id" from NVC which is required to continue on that front.

Hello everyone and thank you for the help in advance! We submitted our Fiance visa application last year and recently got it approved in Oct 2023. We have received a letter from the NVC saying our case was being sent to the Ciudad Juarez Embassy in Mexico, when I check the status the case is "Ready". What are the next steps we need to do from here? We have filled out form DS-160 but from here do we wait to get an interview date? Are we supposed to do the payments for "processing" after we get the interview date? Everything I have found is super confusing so thank you for any help you can provide.
