Also, I guess if the embassy only has 20 spots for a giving month the 20 persons will go through and the rest will have to wait until the next round of appointments is release. I pray Jamaica is not busy.

Jamaica has opening March 16 n 23rd

What does this mean for me? That I can reschedule? If so, how do I go about that?

I was checking the interview dates for the US Embassy, and there seem to be a plethora of spots open depending on the physical location...  I would assume that we have the power to contact the consulate directly to reschedule to an earlier date...  Seems to be a better move than contacting the NVC!  I am still awaiting an interview date, but please let me know what you discover!

Yea, it seems so, where did you check? I am here registering my appointment online, not sure if I should do it before or wait until I get the letter

Well since my consulate is in Cairo, I direct myself to their webpage.  That being said, I think instead of scheduling an appointment, contact a representative there via email or phone and ask them directly?  You have your official date for the end of April, so I would simply ask them if it is apropos to reschedule to an earlier available date  

 

Also add this, the true power lies in the fact that the Consulate now has your case.  I would imagine the negotiating power is much greater now that you've transcended the robotic nature of the former institution, hehe.

I just tried to, but I need the official letter first, hopefully, tonight. Can anyone say how long it took to get the official letter from NVC for visa appointment?

Hey!  I found some prior posts on this thread of people who called the consulate and got earlier dates!  The main criteria was that their cases were physically there!

So much conflicting info.  But this seems to be from a third party also?  I would always suggest that it NEVER hurts to ask.  (The story of the malevolent judge in the Bible is always my philosophical reference point.)  I would at the very least call the embassy in Jamaica and ask them.
