Re: NVC Filed Online Timeline
Thanks Dave2726, that's good to know.
I sent them an email about rescheduling and it said the following: If your appointment was scheduled by NVC, please wait until after the original appointment date has passed and then sign in to your account at https://ais.usvisa-info.com/en-gb/iv to book a new interview date. Appointments are booked through the Visa Appointment Service, not by email. You may wish to check the appointment calendar periodically for any newly released appointments or cancelations. I'm not willing to let the appointment pass and be seen to have "missed" my appointment. Do you have any idea about the appointment calendar they mention? I have searched and can't see any sign of it. |

Re: NVC Filed Online Timeline
Quick update. POE at IAH yesterday.
Big queue to get to the primary inspection point, tons of European flights arriving at the same time and not really enough officers. However, otherwise flawless POE experience. CBP were really fantastic with me. Very friendly and welcoming, had a nice chat with the first officer! He told me USC wife I wouldn't be long and she could wait just outside the primary inspection point. I was sent very briefly to secondary, which was just a sectioned off area of the primary inspection area. There was ample seating there and not many people in secondary. Just a short wait and my name was called and I was brought my passport by another friendly officer. He just asked if I had any food with me, which I didn't then he said "you're good to go, enjoy your day!" Really great experience! Two years in the making! |
Re: NVC Filed Online Timeline
Hi
I was DQ'd on 9/9/22 and told to wait for interview date. Still waiting. Should I be concerned as it seems a lot longer than others who have posted here? I am also guess I just have to wait...? |
Re: NVC Filed Online Timeline
Bruiser,
I wouldn't be overly concerned if I were you. DQ'd just means that NVC will update the US Embassy in London at their next scheduled drop. US Embassy will then schedule appointments based on availability, first come first serve. It really depends then on how many people are before you on the list and what their upcoming availability and backlog is. That's anyone's game at any point in time. Sometimes it'll be quick, other times much longer. I hope they get to you soon and you get sorted. If its creating difficulties for you then you might be able to exert some pressure through a congressman/woman via your USC sponsor but I think it has to be pretty exceptional circumstances. Unfortunately, most of us are just along for the ride! Good luck. |

I need to reschedule this appointment and have absolutely no option to do this on the Visa Appointment Service system - I've contacted them and also the Consultate via email and they've said I have to wait for the appointment date to pass before I will have the option to reschedule. Reluctant to do this without knowing how long it would be until the next appointment. Anyone else having difficulty rescheduling appointment booked by NVC?

Hi - Just got my interview date and registered on Embassy website (took a few days). I needed to reschedule as I will be away, so requested via website. It cancelled my appointment but only dates showing available (for next 12 months) are the date of my (now cancelled) appoint and the next day (both November 2022)!! Can someone confirm that the dates are only released weekly/ monthly and if so, when are they released?

Thanks for the link. That is about allocation of visa numbers being issued. I am applying for an IR1 visa and my visa number is allocated (spouse of USC).

Re: NVC Filed Online Timeline
Hi there, I just discovered this insanely helpful thread and it seems there is a huge difference in that some people get there interviews within a month, others within 4 months.
My current situation is myself and my spouse have been documentarily complete at the NVC since 18-OCT-2022. Today we had our automated 60 day case update email thanking us for our patience and letting us know they are still awaiting slots at the London embassy. Our immigration team tell us to expect an email with a date by 18 JAN 2023 (that would make it 3 months since we became DQ at the NVC) and to expect an interview in FEB 2023 making it 4 months in total. Our priority date is 14 JULY 2022 (although I’m not sure what that means for us to be honest). Just wanted some support and reassurance based on others experiences. I really do hope we get our interview date through soon as it’s so hard to plan anything! For added info it’s a EB1 Green Card. Thanks everyone and thoughts appreciated! Just an impatient individual over here! |

Re: NVC Filed Online Timeline
I think there always used to be a similar thread in the main USA forum for non-marriage based applications. However, you're welcome here too!
What I would say is a USC spouse has priority in all things immigration with the US Embassy and the process as a whole. Perhaps the only higher priority is a child of a USC. So, you're in the queue, but I would expect a longer wait than others on this thread just because of the priority system. I do hope you get sorted soon and things move along for you successfully. There's nothing worse than the limbo! Best of luck and happy holidays. Do let us know how you get on. |
