According to most, it's pretty much necessary for you to accompany your husband to his interview.

Expect a long wait. I sent my AOS and IV packages at the end of February, got my case complete on March fifth, and am STILL waiting to hear about an interview. I've contacted the consulate on several occasions, and have been told that all May interviews are already full, and to expect an interview in "future months". At this point, getting an interview for June would be something to throw a party over.

Also, do everything in your power to get to that interview. Many people have been refused at the interview, and told to come back at a later date with the USC or else there would be no visa given.

Also, please update your timeline! There are VERY few current Ecu-filers for CR-1/IR-1 visas (counting you and me, there are three of us) so absolutely any bit of information possible is a big help!

Believe me, I was just as disappointed as you are. After finishing up at NVC, I was expecting to get an April interview and finally be done with everything, but as always, Guayaquil has everything all messed up. At this point, if you were to get a July interview it would be lucky. Lots of luck to both of us! Here's to hoping things pick up soon.

I will figure out how to update my timeline and ill do it.......you should keep calling everyday probably they will get tired of all the calling...this doesnt make sense why do we have to wait a lot...suppostly of what i read we dont have to wait for a visa interview slot. Usually C1 types have "priority" ay...

Guayaquil is just slow. They still haven't updated the DOS Consulate website with April interviews, even though we're halfway through April. And I thought the same thing - that'd we'd get a rather speedy interview. I've had two close friends go through the process (One had their interview in July 2011, and other in October 2012) and neither of them had to wait more than two weeks. It looks like they've just gotten backlogged.

If you can, try to stay active here on VJ, so the few Ecu-filers that have found each other on here can keep in touch and try to get a better idea of how things are going for the others. If nothing else, at least we can complain together.

Believe what we're telling you: it's crucial that you be there at the consulate when your husband is interviewed.
