It's a case by case situation of course! and its totally up to the interviewer..
But i for one, got my B1/B2 visa while my F2A was still processing.. i understand that this is not the norm..

All my advice is let her be completely honest.. that is the best i can tell u..

I got my e-mail case complete Dec 10th still no IL yet too

Congratulations for both Mily7 and America-del-sur :)

ive been away for a while so anyone ive missed congratulations also

I finally got my case complete today :):) with a checklist to bring to the interview but CC

February interview here i come

@Meeno 1988

as far as i know every checklist need to wait again 20-30 business days..whats your checklists and how many days they reviewed ur docs coz im waiting also mine...its 16 working days of my Aos checklists today!!!

@jayceeancheta

It is an AOS checklist too.. today is business day 19 since they were entered into the system..

Good luck with your checklist!

Hi everyone,

Got a checklist today

Not a major one but still a checklist..

Ive been reading conflicting posts regarding this issue.. so plz give me an answer from ur experience

Will i restart the counting of the 20-30 business days when i send in the checklist?

Thanks

Congratulationsss everyooonnnneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee :D
So happpppyyy for youu alllll!!! And apple special congrats for you!

Basically, the same rule applies to all of us. As far as I know.

great then im getting 3 checklists

Thanks.

What I want to show is the "cut-off" date of who gets the I/L based on the date of case completion.

For example: those who got I/L during the 1st week of Oct (for the NOV interviews) are those who got CC on or before Sept 20.

Those who got CC on Sept 21 onwards did not get I/L, therefore will have to wait until the next cycle of I/L distribution which is 1st week of Nov (for DEC interviews).

Is it a bit confusing? Am I making sense?

yes you are making perfect sense..

i see what you mean now

with all the dates and numbers i am the one who was confused

Cant wait for the first week of November to see more red on the list and hopefully turn into blue myself before the 20th

Quick question though,, if i see a checklist someone got and ive done the same.. will i get a checklist for it too or is it not a rule? from ur experience!

Praying for you apple21 and everyone else too of course

Thank you for all the help you are giving everyone!

Hey guys..

Just some positivity

Good luck to us all!

I wish we can all be with our loved ones soon!

I can relate with anyone who has a baby it is so hard to have daddy only on skype!

Praying to God to give the ppl at NVC super powers and have them send our CC emails tomorrow

Congrats jhunjhun and arkidon

Hi everyone

I mailed my civil documents and the AOS package on the 8th of October.

called NVC yesterday and they told me they were entered into the system on the 10th and 11th of October.

From everyones comments on their checklists i see 10 checklists coming

If not i guess that means i'm looking at an interview not earlier than february given the 30 business days wait!

I just hope the visa numbers hold up!

Good Luck everyone and stay optimistic

Hi everyone..

Can any of VJ seniors or anyone who understands this explain it to me..

Some places i read that if you dont get a case complete by the first week of the month then you will not get an interview the following month but start hoping for the following one. (i.e. CC october 15th interview not in November but December at the earliest)

While other places some ppl say they got CC 3rd week of month and got scheduled an interview the following month..

So i already know the bit re the embassy itself and the different categories.. but does the above scenario have a rule or what?

Thanks guys

And good luck for everyone waiting for CCs or I/Ls

ur kidding!!! thats alot

and here i was excited im almost done!!!

experience got my case complete SEptember 12th still waiting on damn embassy

go to the embassy website the isiots are interviewing Lebaneese sudani sumali Brits yemenee syrinas and tell egyptians they dont have available dates for us Egyptians

my experience with them for long time is misery

so even when your case is complete expect the worst

dont be depressed join the club ya 3am meena salemha 3al elbaaba kirolos

nobrains you just got me depressed

speaking from experience or just hearsay??

i dont see any info on your profile..

Meeno US embassy in Cairo is the worst in the world

enjoy the long wait man

Just sent my supporting documents for the DS-260 today...

My last step at NVC

awaiting my case complete..

when did u send ur documents?

Someone on another post just made me depressed!

Told me Cairo embassy had the worst wait times

Not yet.... still waiting for beautiful-Case Completed Notice lol!!!!!! How far are you with NVC?

Hi everyone,

I just sent my last form today and waiting for my case complete.

I hope i dont get any checklists

Good luck everyone

thanks Tuti & Baher..

i was wondering if u got ur case complete or not yet?

Did you already make a payment? If you did, you would need the bar-coded sheet you got when you made it. (Very Important not to send your documents without it)

you have to send them through ordinary mail and you can also have a cover letter if you like.

Thank u dwheels76

Your country isn't EP (Electronic processing) so email is not an option for you . You will mail it in with your bar-coded cover page from the payment portal. You can add a cover letter if you like also.

Hi everyone..

wanted to know how i can send the ds-260 supporting documents.

Should i mail or email them to NVC?

Should i add a cover letter?

hi everyone,

i have a ds260 in pdf.

81807.pdf

hi everyone..

but on the website it said after i filled the DS-261, it said to expect to pay the IV fees in 3-5 business days.

Or did i understand wrong?
