 Share

Recommended Posts

I  got a call from the US embassy to my number  asking if I would like to attend an interview tomorrow morning. I had to say no .On  asking about new slots, the officer told me to keep checking the website which would open appointments somewhere in May-June nothing in April as its fully booked.

 

 

I am applying from Singapore but the backlog as per  website is huge and causing delays in processing.Got my police coc in Dec  and by April end  it would already be 5 months wait. 

Could the experienced people let me know what is the approximate wait time between embassy receiving packet 3 response and actual interview appointment day for fiance visa.

 

Is the appointment scheduled using  http://ustraveldocs.com website (It always says no appointments available)  or provided in letter by the embassy.

 

Me and my fiance have been waiting since 2019 for getting appointment dates but sadly everything is delayed.

 

 

 

Timeline of my case is as below:

 

  1. Petition filing- Nov 2018
  2. Petition Approval- Apr 2019
  3. Interview and 221g -Aug 2019
  4. 221g response to consulate - Dec 2019

Oh for next day interview ,yes I could not say a yes as it was very last minute and documents etc were not fully sorted.

However, we both have not given up. The case was transferred from India to Singapore during covid .I and my first interview in India but ended up getting 221g.

By the time second interview appointment was received, covid had started and all embassies closed.

As I was in Singapore,my case was transferred here in Dec 2020 with a. complete new DS-160.

I am ready with police certificates, medicals waiting for interview date.

However, unable to know the process of how interview can be scheduled in Singapore for Fiance interview.

ustraveldocs website has been mentioning "No appointments available" since last few days.   

 

So I want to know what is the wait time between I submitting all documents to embassy with DS160 and actual interview in Singapore.

Would you please be  able to advise here.
