Why is Mexico sooo backed up? CC Sept 7 and still waiting for interview. The lady on the phone said she saw a lot of CC's from September and on that have been waiting for Mexico.

 

I have an expedite and I'm even waiting :-(

 

I wonder if this is the same reason USCIS had been backed up, because of the rush of applicants last year.

But how? Is this bc you got your case expedite?  How can i check that? I keep calling the nvc and i dont get any information. We tried to expedite due the earthquakes but we were denied. 

If you could give us more information it would be very helpful. Seems like people who got case complete in august had their interviews this month. There’s even someone from sept 1st cc who got an interview.

Congrats :)

I heard NVC takes 11 weeks to review the documents. Is this true ? Whenever I call NVC, they say they process cases after 11 weeks of receiving the documents. NVC received my documents on 11/02. Not sure how long its gonna to take to complete the case. 

 

NVC tells us it takes 11 weeks but currently they are taking 6-7 weeks to review.

I dont understand why they are si backed up if people who got approved a month before us  got interviews for november. Is there a way we can contact the consulate and get answers? Does anybody know??

I wonder what the back up is. I know for sure that the cases completed before 9/15 were scheduled already. 

 

CC:9/20

Guatemala

I've been wondering the same thing and I'm so frustrated because completed cases up until Sept were getting interview appointment dates only 1 to 2 weeks after CC. We have been waiting now 2 months! 

 

If that's the case though hopefully we receive something next week then.
