Hi everyone, Is it a problem during eb2 niw interview if the applicant is not employed in his home country at the time of the interview? i was laid off 2 months ago and was just wondering if it could be an issue if the consular officer asks about current job. Thanks!

@appleblossom Thanks for the response. I guess my question is, is this 60 days recurring email only sent by NVC when the beneficiary's PD is current and eligible for a visa?

Hi everyone, Did you receive an NVC email like this once your PD became current and before the interview letter was scheduled? This is different from the DQ notice that was sent after civil documents were accepted. "This notice is to inform you that your case for an immigrant visa is documentarily complete at the National Visa Center (NVC) and has been since 28-JUN-2024. NVC has received all of the fees, forms and documents required prior to attending an immigrant visa interview. Your petition is awaiting an interview appointment. At this time, no further action is required. We appreciate your patience. Your case will remain at NVC until an appointment is scheduled, at which time we will send it to the appropriate U.S. Embassy or Consulate General. We will notify the applicant, petitioner, and attorney (if applicable) when an appointment is scheduled. The U.S. Embassy or Consulate tells NVC which dates they are holding interviews. NVC fills these appointments on a first-in, first-out basis and is unable to predict when an interview will be scheduled. For the most up-to-date information about the U.S. Embassy or Consulate's operating status, please visit their website at https://usembassy.gov. The next communication you receive from NVC will be either a notice that your appointment is scheduled, or if an appointment is not scheduled within the next 60 days, we will send a notice confirming that your case is still in line for an interview."

@appleblossom i already received a DQ notification in July. After that, I requested USCIS to recapture an earlier priority date through NVC, and the earlier PD has been recaptured, which makes me current. Then I received this email today after sending several inquiries to NVC to apply my earlier PD to my case. I thought the message indicated that that I am now eligible for a visa. My PD is Dec 2021 and my category is EB2

Hi @appleblossom I received the same email today. Can this email be received if the priority date is not current? I thought this is the final email after DQ and PD is current. Please enlighten me. Thanks.

ok sounds good. thank you

Thanks.. but i am more interested in knowing what administrative processing before an interview means.

Hi All, I made an expedite request to NVC for visa interview and i received this message, please what does it mean? “The correspondence submitted is currently under review. An appropriate action will be taken once this review is completed. This petition is currently undergoing necessary administrative processing. You will be notified with further instructions when the processing is complete.“ Why is my petition undergoing administrative processing with NVC before interview? Does anyone have a similar experience?

@appleblossom thanks for the response. My category is EB2 NIW. When do you think is reasonable to expect IL for Frankfurt embassy? My case status say "At NVC". I've filled in my timeline but for some reason it's not showing up..

Hi all, I am documentarily qualified (July 10, 2024) and my PD is current at Dec 15, 2021 (my request to recapture this earlier priority date was approved 31st July 2024). My consulate is Frankfurt, Germany. I am yet to receive my interview letter? I am worried that there could be a backlog now that Frankfurt is processing immigrant visa for 5 other consulates. Anyone with an idea on Frankfurt processing and how long it takes to receive the interview letter? Thanks.

Hi all, I am documentarily qualified and my PD is current. how long does it take NVC to schedule employment based (EB2) immigrant Interview? Is there a backlog now that Frankfurt is now processing immigrant visa for 5 other consulates such as Amsterdam? Thank you
