Hi friends. :) I just wanna ask for those who are also under CR1 Visa, is it NVC or the consulate who will give us the schedule for our interview? And how long does it usually take for them to give it to you once your case has been completed? Any reply is much appreciated. Happy Sunday! God bless! :))

Base on the people i know here in VJ. after 7-14 days, you will receive your interview schedule for the next month. I red some forums saying NVC schedule interview every 2nd week of the month. But in my case, i got my schedule 1st week (August 1). And yes, NVC schedules your Interview since your in CR1 category.

The NVC will schedule interview based on dates the Embassy tells them they have available. Despite what they say about scheduling only during the second week of each month, interviews are scheduled all month long.
