Ok so we have our NOA1, NOA2, and received our letter from the US Embassy saying we are ready to schedule our medical and visa interview. The problem is our passport appt was the 19th of Aug, then they moved it to the 11th of Aug, then back to the 19th of Aug, and now they reschedule again for Sept 18th. We are at a standstill and cannot schedule our medical and interview until we get our passport. Are there anyways to get a quicker appt. For the passport??? Or to get it somewhere else???

We are both really disappointed but know this happens sometime. Any help regarding this situation is greatly appreciated!!! Thanks in advance!!!
