Hi everyone!! My fiancee and I are trying to schedule her embassy interview wacko.gif
Has anyone tried using the online sysytem "VisaPoint" to schedule? I wonder if I would have any better luck online then calling the cell center. So far when I call I'm told we can't yet schedule a date.
Has anyone recently gotten an interview date??
Thanks for any info

As far as i knew Visapoint is for Non-immigrant Visa only (tourist visa and such), Though K-1 is a Non-immigrant Visa it is considered as Immigrant Visa.

VisaPoint also provides information on immigrant visas for applicants who are pursuing legal resident status in the United States. However, VisaPoint cannot be used to schedule immigrant visa appointments.http://manila.usembassy.gov/wwwhvpnt.html

Just keep on calling, USEM will come up with the interview dates eventually.

you can check your interview date in the embassy website you already have your case number.
