INTERVIEW LETTER RECEIVED ONLY ONE WEEK AFTER DQ!!!!! IR1 - BRAZIL

[MLGood 9]

Hello everyone!!!!

I'm sure this is good news for those who are wondering when they are going to get their interview appointment letter from the NVC. I want to share our experience after we were DQ'd at the NVC. Here are the dates: 

DQ on March 14 2022. 

Interview appointment letter: March 21 2022. 

Interview date: April 11 2022 (Rio de Janeiro)

I think it is important and relevant to share when good things happen! I would love to see someone posting this information, because give us an idea of how long it is taking to get an interview scheduled at Embassies abroad. Since they don't share this information. 

Miracles happen!!!! We are extremely happy!!!!

Good luck to all of you! God bless!

That is a good sign that the backlog at the consulate has been eliminated.  In 2017, we received my wife's interview letter 5 days after getting the "case complete" email from NVC......Great news!!!

YES!!!!! This is a good sign to everyone that is waiting. It gives hope to all. 

Applicants and petitioners from the pandemic are finally having their relief now. I'm happy for the ones starting their immigration journey now, because probably they are not going to have to wait that much. 

Thank you Crazy Cat!

I was just DQ'd this past week so this really gives me hope. Thank you for sharing! My visa category is f2b though so I don't know if that makes any difference, but anyway, I'm sure it's coming soon!

That is great news! @MLGood, hope your interview went well! 

Were you able to schedule the medical examination before the interview? In which city? I heard that there is a great backlog which is a problem especially for those already in the USA

I believe that another big backlog now is between I-140 approval and the DS. It is a limbo since USCIS clears out cases once approved and the DS only counts the backlog after DQ. Since December I140s approved are not going from TSC to NVC. Nebraska seems normal.

Hello! Thanks!!! Thank GOD the interview went well. 

Yes! I scheduled in Sao Paulo (the state where I live) 

I was able to schedule in time before the interview, because someone gave up on their appointment, so I was able to take that empty spot. 

I called them and said that I was available to go any time, so if someone doesn't show up, I was going to go. 

They told me that this happens frequently. So try to call them, and say that you're able to pick up if someone doesn't show up.  I don't know how your work schedule is, or how far you live from the doctor, but at the end of the day, being able to get everything ready at the time of the interview is one last thing to stress about! And avoid going under AP. 

Yes, there is a big backlog. Most of the people getting interviewed on the same day as me, didn't have their medical results yet. 

I feel sorry to know that! We know how stressful it is to deal with immigration process. I hope you're able to get everything done in time!!! Wish you all the best!!!!

Thanks for your message! Yes, as far as I'm reading here, I guess the consulate in Brazil it's going pretty fast recently. Another person from the same category as me had his interview scheduled almost as quickly as I had. Hopefully this works for the other categories as well. Maybe their backlog is coming to an end. I hope you get your interview appointment soon! Wish you all the best!!!!

Thanks! I am still waiting for USCIS to send the case to the DS, so a long way to go. We live in New Jersey, so scheduling the medical examinations is likely going to be an issue

Oh okay! I thought you were living in Brazil. Yes, so it is going to give you a little headache. But in the other hand, you can check with all 4 avaiable places, then fly straigth to the right place. One person here told me here that he was able to get his medicals on time in Belo Horizonte, it was the only one with appointments available. I hope everything works good for you! Thanks!
