Cuba - trouble getting a PIN

[shland 0]

Hello - I'm working on a K1 visa for my fiance. Has anyone had trouble getting a PIN for phone communication with the Special Interests Section? I tried 4 different credit cards today, and all were denied, so I was unable to get a PIN. This makes me very worried if I am unable to be in contact with the embassy... not sure what to do.

Thanks in advance,

Sheryl

i think the process for scheduling interviews in cuba has recently changed. maybe the information on this link will be helpful: http://havana.usint.gov/niv_appointment_procedures-.html

^{Thank you, yes, you no longer need to call the embassy to schedule an apt, but I have questions I need to ask, which can't be done on the new apt line.}

you only need a "PIN" to schedule an interview under the previous scheduling process. you can call the office directly if you have questions. try calling the non-appt line that the interest section publishes on their webpage. http://havana.usint.gov/contact.html. or email them. <HavanaConsularInfo@state.gov>

you can also try to ask your questions here - there might be someone that can help you out.
