F1 case complete and waiting for visa # availability

[cassanoa 11]

I haven't had the National Visa Center email me in the longest. Got an email today informing me to provide additional tax information, no biggy, but with all the IL going around it makes me feel optimistic!

Me too, mine is July 24, 2006. I called NVC this week for my IL after the VB came out. The rep was very unhappy, saying the VB was for Aug, so I had to wait till Aug to inquiry them.

I'm wondering whether they have a favorite country list to send out IL? Looks like people in Jamaica got the IL earlier, or just because we have more Jamaica members in the forum? (Sorry if I'm wrong)

Me too , im waiting my il .my pd is 2 may 2006. Im complete my case 10 may 2012.... Im dominican..

That's very unusual! You've been current for a while. What has NVC told you? Perhaps you should contact your embassy directly. Edited July 12, 2013 by javisakid

I'm confused about why you haven't received either. I thought everyone current at a certain embassy will have gotten their letter at the same time. Assuming everything is order with your documents at the NVC, and you were told that your case was complete and that you're "documentarily quailed," then you definitely have the right to speak to a supervisor to resolve it. Or contact your embassy directly. Edited July 12, 2013 by javisakid

Hmmm...that must feel so frustrating. Sometimes things get overlooked by the people who are responsible for them. So, I suggest you call NVC over and over (speak with a supervisor if necessary) and also write an email to the US consulate in Kingston: kingstonivinfo@state.gov or KingstonIV@state.gov.

To everyone who's dare is current as per VB you won't necessarily get am IL as it becomes current.. If you wait for 30 days of being current n still nothing contact ur country embassy.. U have up to 90 days in some cases before they contact you after you become current depending in your embassy ... So prepare nice letters and send and ask your embassy about an update in your case as from the last posted VB you are current.. Some will write you back with a date and others will let u know that they are still processing ur case but due to their volume of work they are not at ur case yet.. So email or call people

Hi West I think you missed one step.

I was reviewing my interview letter and in the section 'How to Prepare for the Visa Interview' I notice a reference to url: http://travel.state.gov/visa/visa_4354.html

In the Interview Preparation - embassy guidelines: this can be found at url: http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_3742.html

1) You need to select Kng-Kingston from the drop down box provided.

2) Click the US Embassy/Consulate Specific Information button.

3) Go to page 3 and you will notice it speaks to you registering for a free DHL courier service to return you passport.

4) After registering you should print the confirmation page and take it with you to the interview.

This is required for people who have interviews on and after March 18, 2013.

I remember reading on the NVC website, I can't recall the URL, that Countries are only allowed a specified percentage of the available visa per annum. I'm not sure if it applies here in your case, but I hope for the best! It's just wait it out, you are almost at the finish line and I could only imagine what that must feels like....

F1junkie has a later date than you, same embassy, and was scheduled for an interview. This is weird.
