Our information left NVC on Monday, March 4th to the US embassy in Algeria. Do we have to wait to receive information from the embassy before we can schedule an interview or can we schedule one now? How about the medical? I do have a case # from the NVC.

May God bless and keep you always~ May your wishes all come true~ May you always do for others~ And let others do for you~

May you build a ladder to the stars~ And climb on every rung~May you stay forever young

Check the embassy info or in your regional forums. Some embassies allow e-mail communication and allow you to choose a date and others choose the date for you. Give at least a week to 10 days to contact the embassy to see if they have your case as it will take a bit to get there and then a few days for them to enter it in the system. Good luck!

In a couple weeks, you can email the embassy and inquire with your case #, if they received it they will email a "packet" of information. It will give you instructions for what you will need (forms, documents,approved physicians for medical, etc) and for scheduling an interview.

It can be a long wait for an interview appointment to be scheduled though-- maybe they're moving faster now, but last year it took over 3 months from the time we emailed the embassy for them to schedule an interview (4 months after it left NVC).

Thanks for the information, I hope they aren't so backed up by now, but we have waited this long and others even longer, God willing we will all come out of this on the happy side.
