Hey folks,

I have a question for those of you dealing with the US embassy in Islamabad. How long did it take for them to contact you after NVC has sent them your file? It has been about 2 weeks and i have not heard a thing... Just curious to see how long it took for others.

Thanks!

Why would they contact you, since nvc has given you an interview date. You just complete your medical and go to embassy on your interview date. I don't see any reason for us embassy islamabad to contact you,other than if they want to move your date, which is very rare.

For my k3 i got email within a week for packet 3.5. After sending packet 3.5 its around month and no interview date yet.

@ShohailKhan

OP is talking about k1 visa and your are talking about CR1 visa. In K1/K3 we have to send documents (Packet 3.0/3.5) to embassy instead of NVC and then embassy schedule an interview.

For CR1 we send documents IV packet to NVC and NVC schedule interview.
