Am happy but not so happy as well. NVC completed our case yesterday June 18th (our one year wedding anniversary and 11 years of being together), however I was told no interview dates for month of July, maybe second week in August. :(:shocked::cry:

July is the convenient month for my spouse and August he will be busy in school and all (he won't like to miss any classes). We just want all this processing over and done with. :protest:

Please guys how do we expedite the interview date in Malaysia? We want his interview in July not August. So the remaining of this month can be used for medicals and interview preparation.

But if we have no choice, then we have to be content with the dates we are given, hopefully not after August. I hope all of this ends latest August, so by September latest he will be here :) and would have completed his MBA. :dancing::)

Thanks a lot, am trying to because I know all things work together for Good and God makes things beautiful and complete in His own time, which is always the right time. I pray His will be done concerning our interview date, visa collection and all.

Thanks

Thanks Ryan, NVC told mii the case is complete but still with them until they get an interview date. Bcos i said should I call the embassy in Malaysia to pick a better date and she said they don't have your case yet. So maybe I should start using the DHL Tracking stuff just in case they decide to mail it without letting mii know or maybe they try to deceive mii so I don't bug them.

Once an interview date is scheduled and the Embassy has the file, contact the Embassy and see if they have an earlier date available.

Interview dates for IR1/CR1 are sent from the embassy to NVC (2nd week of each month). Your case is then sent from NVC to the embassy. Anything you find on DHL now will not be your case. The embassy schedules K1s themself.
