K1 Visa; appointment times: Honduras Embassy

[mooremanda 3]

My fiancé and I have applied for a K1 Visa and we are near the end finally! However, recently I have felt super discouraged because we cannot schedule an interview and was wondering if anyone has experienced this or has any advice?  We have submitted everything, paid all fees, and the status of our visa is "READY for interview...please schedule an interview". However, every time I get on the website to schedule an interview for the past 2 weeks it just says " no appointments available".  I refresh it very frequently and check often, and still nothing.  When I emailed the embassy they said it was just a "first come first serve" type of thing.   There is a time estimate of 6 days for nonimmigrant visa appointments, but no kind of time estimate for the k1 interview.  I just don't know if I need to expect to wait a few weeks to a few months.  It's so hard and stressful to not know any timelines or what to expect...I just feel in the dark.

 

thank you for any help!

You basically are going to have to check the website multiple times a day everyday until slots open up. I had the same issue and I also emailed the embassy. They told me that they were going to open them on a specific date, but since your case is first come first serve I would just check a lot. Like a lot.

do you have any idea if they open up appointments a certain time of day? like at midnight or something? 

 

Thank you for your advice!

It depends on the embassy, so I honestly have no idea. 

My advise is to send another email to the embassy saying that you have been checking for days and maybe they will give you some tips on how to proceed or when to check. 

 

Good luck!

My interview was June 25th at the Honduras us embassy. Of course they were closed and we were told to reschedule. When we rescheduled the only date available was the 25th of July. I think that they are making sure the people who’s interview was canceled go first maybe. I’m not sure. If you have any questions give me a message I will send you my email

Hi, how was the interview? Also, would you please share with me the email address of the embassy in Honduras? I couldn't find it anywhere!

There are a few emails...I used tggiv@state.gov  since i was doing an immigrant visa. they also have support-honduras@ustraveldocs.com for questions related to visa applications. 

 

And the interview was not bad at all, I went with my fiancé to his and i thought that was helpful.   They only asked a few questions, it was quick. Just have all of your paperwork organized in a way you can get to it fast if they ask for a certain thing .

we did have that translated...the birth certificate. However, we first got the police record from comayagua and realized we needed it from Tegucigalpa at the last minute and I did not get that for translated and it was fine.

Thank you so much for the reply! I am just waiting for an available appointment. Still nothing on the site. Guess I just have to be patient but in the meantime I want to make sure I have all ready!

Yes. Check once or twice a day. (At first I checked it constantly and got kicked out and had to wait 3 days to get back on) I think I normally saw the open appointments in the evening. Good luck with everything!!
