keep checking, they will release more slots slowly. I think those with CR1/IR1 and other immediate family based applications have slots available, but looking in the non immigrant booking system there don't seem to any left, last time I checked there were some slots in April.

Isn’t EB-3 an immigrant visa?  I don’t know much about the EBs. Maybe he’s looking in the wrong place on AIS.

Since you expedited and your case left the NVC before they assigned you an interview, you are in the same spot as others  who book their own interview. Are you using the immigrant section on AIS, the green one. (Non immigrant is blue.)

https://ais.usvisa-info.com/en-gb/iv
 

Somebody posted a picture of the immigrant calendar just a day or so ago and it had lots of openings. Are you ticking the reason “I have received a letter/email from the consular section with instructions to schedule an immigrant visa appointment.”

 

Do that if that’s not the reason you picked before. Does that get you in?

just clicked on the link you sent now, it shows green immigrant visa and logged in still receive same message as there's no appointment.

And you found the list of choices and picked 

“ I have received a letter/email from the consular section with instructions to schedule an immigrant visa appointment.”—-even if you didn’t actually get a letter.


here’s the availability posted Tuesday

Am even thinking if i did not tick any  option when i registered because i realise that you can still continue with registration without ticking option. Can i create another account using my second email and re-register by ticking the right option that i have an email with instruction to schedule my visa interview?   or are they holding to let me schedule cos i only registered 3days ago.  Is there any email contact that i can write them and explain my situation please, this is so frustrating for me, kindly help me please.
