Interview Letter Update

[Bochog 10]

Anyone received an interview letter recently?

 

If yes, what was your visa type and when was your DW date?

 

Thanks!

Yeah.

 

Been DQed since Aug 2020.

 

I just haven't updated my timeline.  😁

[Bochog 10]

Any update, guys?

 

Today marks exactly 2 years since we have been DQed.

 

This is just so frustrating.

Omg they have not set an interview for you for 2 years from NVC being dq’d? That’s just insane!

Yes!

 

I sent them an expedite request multiple times (most recently on the 2nd anniversary), but they rejected all of it.

 

It's just extremely frustrating.

~2.4yrs for us for 2 unmarried children of LPR (under 21 at time of Apr2020 DQ).  As a data point to help others, what general content did you put in your expedite requests?

Medical reason for my wife.

 

Apparently, they deem it as "not urgent" and "not qualified for an expedite"

After this, I went ahead and made an expedite request to NVC and they surprisingly gave me a quick response (18 hours!) that they had forwarded the request to USEM.  About how long did it take to get your rejection?  Of course, we're waiting with fingers crossed for positive result.

 

For anyone wondering, I only emphasized the 'out of normal processing time' and Apr2020 DQ in my request.

In my experience, USEM takes about two weeks to respond if they will approve or deny the expedite request.

 

Good luck on your request!

I got DQed Oct. 2021. Will probably not get my hopes up for my first anniversary. 😔

Rejection notification from NVC right on the Friday immediately after the 2 week period you had mentioned.  So now wait 30 days and try again, I guess? 🤷‍♂️

Oddly enough, 3 weeks after the rejection we get an email from the NVC saying we're now scheduled for interview in November.  Maybe the rejected expedite request 'put us on their radar'?  Who knows how things work over there.  Anyway, SLEC medical scheduled and Manila hotel reserved.  Now more hurry up and wait 😝
