Stevie B this is not true. You have said this before and its wrong. The embassy has no idea about us IR1/CR1 unless we are DCF or Expedite. NVC schedules for us okay not embassy. There is a calendar

Yes your are the 3rd one from China.

Before everyone gets all crazy excited. China does their interview schedule very different because of how they are processed at NVC. The embassy does the scheduling and they wait extra long too.

So congratulations dear again. The rest believe next week they will be starting for September.

Are you sure that for China, it is the embassy does the scheduling instead of NVC? Because I want to schedule an earlier date.

Yes. But same rule applies when you get interview date you deal directly now with embassy. You need to email them and request. Since they have your casefile and everything shouldn't be too much delay. I would send it now.

Everyone once you get an interview date. NVC is done with you. They ship off your casefile to your embassy. Further talks is now between you and embassy. For china because of how you guys do OPTIN the embassy does all the scheduling.

Hi Dwheels, do you know if there are similar delays for the embassies in India?

The Embassy in China recently moved to a new location which is why they are delayed.

Are you sure that for China, it is the embassy does the scheduling instead of NVC? Because I want to schedule an earlier date.

Yes, but the chances of getting an earlier date are VERY slim because of the recent location change.

Hi Dwheels, do you know if there are similar delays for the embassies in India?

Well what I have read right in this very thread from others about New Delhi and Mumbai is the flooding has caused alot of issues and July interviews had to be moved to August. So that explains for India why no one here got any dates. Hoping things are better and there is room in September for you all.

For Canada and DR. I have no clue maybe summer rush don't know it is odd. But I would gather its peak season for visitor and they may take up alot of the slots. who knows.
