Finally!!!!, I called NVC and my family's interview is scheduled during the first week of April.

I guess due to Mumbai consulate being busy they could not schedule the interview in March even though we were current in March.

PD - 03-Nov-2010

Hi friends anyone got through the interview ? Plz share about UR interview experience .... I m very anxious !!! Very nervous ...

Hey sweetymistry .. What happened to UR interview letter... Any news plz update... Stay in touch..

I am in the same boat as sweetymistry...

no IL as of yet. It seems Mumbai consulate is a month behind!?

Mumbai consulate shouldn't have any backlogs as the main reason they moved out from South Mumbai to the Bandra-Kurla complex is to accommodate more people with this large office and more windows. Not sure what's going on there.

Apparently, they do have backlogs!!.. Even though we are current as of March, we don't have a IL? I called Mumbai consulate help line and they just asked me to be patient...

Mumbai consulate has updated their IL schedule if you are lucky one to be included. Call NVC.

nope!.. nothing.. I don't see our case number in the list!!

Did you try calling or e-mailing Mumbai Consulate directly instead of NVC

Does anyone have mumbai consulate phone number or a direct email address?

I think I am going to call them.

Called and spoke to a supervisor today, SAD news for us. There is NO dates available in MARCH. EFFIN CONSULATE cant handle the load apparently. #######.. all these months of waiting and now even when the PD is current we have to wait another month..

This is ridiculous!!

Agree its soo weird why they don't give ILs whos pds already current, but about retro i don't think it will happen for now.they crazy slow movement and now even no IL

I think it's the Mumbai consulate who are perhaps lagging behind/overloaded...

I don't believe it's sign of retro or any such things..

I have been trying to call NVC but their number is not working, seems like it's still down due to the blizzard last week. Has anyone else had luck?

I called them on Monday - They are open..

Got the same answer!! working on Oct-22

Hey F2A4spouse, William..., any news yet as to your interview letters? Still expecting mine here.

No news.. I am not sure what's going on!!

Just called NVC for I/L and said you should call on March 1st.

That is the date when you would be current. Right now we don't have visa available

Even when Visa Bulletin for March 2013 is 22 Nov 2010

So not happy.. wonder why its taking so much time this month...

Is any body else than me who is waiting for interview and their PD is before 22 Nov 2010??? Please reply

Same here, I called NVC and they said that they are working on Oct-22-10 visa's!

PD 03-NOV-2010; Mumbai consulate..

Is it mumbai consulate??

Yes

I have not received anything yet

Me neither!

Looks like the NVC is going to close early today due to inclement weather. More delay

They are already closed! Tried calling them and got a message saying immigrant visa information not available at this time!?

Congrats and thanks for responding.

But atleast you got a confirmation over the phone that you will be getting a letter, right? Also WHICH CONSULATE?

Have you been calling? What consulate?

Mumbai consulate... I will wait for the visa bulletin to release and then ask my lawyer to call.

Has everyone with pd before 22 NOV gotten an IL??

No I have not... PD 03-NOV-10

I would suggest you all to accept the people as they are. You can't change someone's in-built nature so for you that person may sound like an idiot or stupid however that person might be feeling relieved/lighter after taking out their frustrations here. You don't know what's going on with them at their emotional level.

So let everyone have their freedom of speech as long as they are not abusing others or passing racial comments.

Well said.

thanks Saint William. Keep your suggestions to yourself. I wasnt talking about you. And look at your posts too, btw. "touche" -- really?? do you even know what it means?

I dont want to get in a knit-picking argument with anyone. I am just as anxious to hear about my case but I don't come here with meaningless and fear mongering posts as soon as its the 20th.

REALLY??? you're the one to speak? Can you go back a few pages and check your posts?

F2a4spouse - This is exactly why i said read what you write before you post.. Nothing more to say. Not trying to pick a fight.,

most of the people are here but they are not the overly crazy people like last few months where they started jumping up and down and whining since the 20th of each month. We also had crazies like "oh im on the phone with NVC now", " they just answered" , " oh they just put me on old" it was like a freaking twitter feed. Thank God those idiots are done. We now have a more composed group.

I think you should respect other members emotions and refrain from calling them names like crazy and idiots!?

You should read ur comments again before u posts.. U know there is a option to preview before u post! Maybe u should use that more often.. Just a suggestion

The NVC should be awarded as the most unpredictable agency. Come on, we live in America..can't they automated this process and make it a fixed date process to avoid all sort of speculations?

VB publishing date - 8th of every month

Getting ILs scheduled - 26th of every month

I mean lots of these things could be automated to make this a better and consistent process. They are charging anyhow so much money then why can't they use the best IT support?

Touche...

However, You are beating a dead horse here!!!

So far puma is the only one with nov-10 news... It would more assuring if anyone else got it..

Whats ur pd?

03-NOV-2010

I called again and got the same answer!? VISA NOT AVAILABLE...

I will just wait now...!

I'm F2a my pd 11/19/2010 I will fix that

What did you ask the NVC. I am planning to call again... but all they say is visa not available?

Just called I got my apoitment march 26 th Manila PD11/192010

You are f2B?

I hope it will at least move forward to 22NOV2010..It looks it's gonna stalled at 22OCT2010.

Unfortunately, it has stalled!... I am tired of this wait!!
