Has anyone on this forum had recent "IR" (IR-1/IR-5 etc.) interviews or upcoming interview scheduled at the Mumbai consulate? I've been waiting from case complete to interview notification since late April 2019 for IR-5. Despite this being 3rd week of June, I still have no feedback regarding interview dates.

 

Looking at this case complete to interview spreadsheet and filtering Mumbai candidates: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xbLl_8yDgHLeDaLnTrPdYc44J0sjPSFfYCKxlKx6uTY/edit#gid=0

it appears last set of folks who received any interview notifications (for an interview scheduled in June or July) were ones whose case complete dates was in late March/early April. Has no one here got any recently scheduled "IR" interviews at Mumbai?

My case complete date is May 28th. This is so disappointing to read that it is taking over 8 weeks to even receive an interview date. Earlier this year per the document wisedog posted, people from Mumbai were around 60 data case complete to actual interview date. Suddenly processing has slowed down dramatically. 😞

@wisedog - it’s F3 category , PD 19 oct 2006. Cc 10 April 2019 , they say on website it takes around 60-90 days from CC date to get IL.  I have seen cases of my family friends got IL in 30 days after CC this year around March and April @Mumbai consulate but now it’s slowed down.

It is pretty much YMMV at NVC. My IR Mumbai case took a full 120 days since case completion before I got an interview (March 2019) - that too after some escalations I initiated!

Hi circular- what visa category were you on ? What kind of escalations did you go to get them to consider your case earlier ?
