Hello everyone,

Today i tried to call the embassy in Cairo on the number " 27972200" as usual but it's not working at all i called another number and they told me that the only way right now to check your case status is through e.mail no phone calls anymore any way we are K1 visa and waiting for the interview letter and at the embassy website there is a link to check that but there is something wrong or i don't understand this is the link : http://egypt.usembassy.gov/consular/niv8.html but it asking you to put only numbers and as you all know the case number start with 3 letters CRO so what i have to do to make it works ?

That link is only to check the status of Non-immigrant visas. K1 are processed as immigrant visas. You can check to see if your case number is scheduled here: http://egypt.usembassy.gov/consular/iv8.html Since they were closed for a few weeks, they seem to be more behind than usual. I've emailed them before a few times, but they usually just respond, "When we schedule you, we will contact you." They won't give any more information than that. It seems the only options you have with this embassy is to wait. You can't really get much information from them.

Good luck! Stay positive!

Can you fill out your timeline please?

When did you get your NOA2?

you will get an interview about 6 months after NOA2

But the embassy closed for 2 weeks

So it might be longer now

Maybe because it's Sunday?

Cairo is open on Sundays

It is closed on Fridays

The embassy in Cairo operates Sunday - Thursday. Those are the typical business days in Egypt.

[relshamy 11]

Just for your info guys the expiration date has no affect anymore once the consulate receives your packet, so don't worry about that. Our case expired on April 10th and our interview was not till May 15th. Good luck to all of you waiting...

[Kat1234 3]

[A_M 7]

[mitcha32 4]
