Hi everyone! I was wondering if anyone from Argentina knows how long it takes to receive the interview date from the Argentina's consulate. My fiancee mailed all the documents requested on P3 on 12-23-14 but we didn't hear back from them yet with P4...

This wait is killing us! :cry:

Thank you for your help!! :goofy:

I had emailed the Argentine embassy previously to inquire how long it takes to be notified about an interview and they said after paperwork received - allow 10 business days.

I would definitely email and follow up. You can call, but I think they are just customer service, and may not be able to advise.

They did note they are very busy in Jan & Feb.

I am supposed to hear from them by Friday - if the 10 days does really apply.

well we apart for 3 months and then I realized that this was going to take much longer than expected, so I came back.

It's just so frustrating because we can't plan anything. They hate to give you a timeframe, and even when you do - it can be way off base!!

But your process looks like it is moving relatively quickly. Suerte!!

Yeah, I also called but they can't help.

It' s just so frustrating. Who knows what's going on. If they at least respond to say they're busy or whatever...

we submitted packet 3 on jan 7 2015 and still haven't heard anything as well. The lack of communication for this part is frustrating. My fiancé lives very from Buenos Aires but was waiting in the city because we were under the impression it was just 10 days and then they schedule the interview. however this is obviously not the case. Oh well looks like the waiting game continues.

Yes, very frustrating. My fiance also lives far from Buenos Aires, in the province of Salta. They got our packet 3 on 12-30-14 and also told us 10 days. But...it's been already a month! so tired... We just want to be together!

I'll keep in touch and let you know if I hear from them. :)
