Hello all...I am waiting too. Our case completed October and we are waiting as well. When I call NVC they tell me that the embassy in Ghana has been behind since the elections...but that is now close to a year. Sometimes it feels like I am being read a "telemarketer's" script.

Thank you for starting this by the way...it was needed.

~Matana74

We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation. And this hope will not lead to disappointment. For we know how dearly God loves us...

My wife's case was completed at NVC on December 2, 2009. What factors do NVC consider when setting-up an interview? Is your priority date a determine factor? Thanks very much for your help!

My wife's case was completed at NVC on December 2, 2009. Could someone tell me how long it would take for her to be schedule for an interview at Accra consulate?
