@LBX please do you have any link that can direct me to the info that states they are scheduling interviews. I’ve searched and can’t find anything. 

I searched the Ghana timeline on this site 2 weeks ago. This is what I found back then:

A&A: DQ 2019-12-07 → Interview (CR1/IR1) 2021-02-03

Marvin: DQ? 2020-02-04 → Interview (K1) 2021-02-03

Owusu: DQ 2020-03-10 → Interview (IR-3) 2021-03-01.

Also the user Three on this thread who was DQ'd Dec 2019 has been scheduled for a CR1/IR1 Interview sometime in February.

 

I just got an Expedite approved about 2 weeks ago for CR1/IR1 Interview scheduled for March.

Thank you @LBX, good luck on your interview. Been DQ’d since April, 2020.

Thank you. Based on what I have seen, if scheduling continues without COVID interruption then you will probably get your interview notice for March/April.

 

Interviews are usually scheduled beginning of a month for the following month. So we should start to see more March interviews scheduled this coming week.

I hope so, fingers crossed

I sure hope so. We had been waiting 5 years last April when his interview appointment was cancelled!!!

Now approaching 6 years!!! Hope we hear something soon. The wait is killing us!

Been emailing the embassy/consulate but no response, or the occasional please don’t contact us!

My goodness! That is an unusually long wait. When were you DQ'd? I am pretty sure that 2 people who were DQ'd Dec 2019 have been rescheduled for next week (1st week in Feb).

[HelpneededJessica 1]

I believe somewhere around June of 2019.

I did call the NVC on Friday and they told me his case was last update January 14th (2021) with the Embassy...

So hopefully something soon...

That is so weird because most individuals with your Ghana timeline were interviewed in Jan 2020.  Good thing you called because somehow they have rescheduled Nov2019/Dec2019 DQ's and missed you. Interviews are generally done in turn based on DQ date.

 

The embassies generally schedule interviews beginning of the month so hopefully you will hear something in February. 🙏🏼

Hopefully

Thanks.🙏🏻😊

Congrats on your interview being scheduled! I wrote an email requesting an expedite on Jan 20th and they responded on Jan 27th that they received my request. I think this week I will hear a reply as to whether they will approve it or not.
