Update:

Scan date: April 21 (I think I'm only under the EP section of the spreadsheet)
Case complete: August 11

So happy we had no checklist after such a grueling wait.

So I grabbed the data from the "Case Complete to Interview" spreadsheet, removed all the non IR1/CR1 visas, removed all the expedited cases and all cases missing the interview date (including recent ones).
Based on 1572 cases from late 2012 until now, this is the amount of days between the case complete and the interview for each country.

(ps. I also removed countries with less than 4 entries and entries with 250+ days between c.c. and the interview, i.e. outliers)

I was reviewing the info on scheduled September interviews on the spreadsheet. I noticed that 2/3 of the interviews were scheduled in mid-August for September interviews. Then, at the end of August, they started scheduling October interviews.
Maybe that is when they will be scheduling the majority of appts. We'll just have to wait and see.

Looking at the "Case Complete to Interview" spreadsheet, it seems like most interviews for August were scheduled around July 14th. The "case complete" for those were mostly in June and as late as July 10th, just 4 days before getting an interview scheduled.
I'd guess the NVC has a date (around the end of the second week of the month) where they set all the interviews.
For those with complete cases in July and early August, let's hope to hear something by the end of next week!

Probably the cause of a shorter wait when calling NVC is; many have stopped calling, I know I have !!!

No not me I am Case Complete to Interview. Tz&ed you are in the right thread this is the scan dates. If you don;t have case complete yet this is the thread and they here maintain the spreadsheet for that. Come on over to the Interview thread once you get Case Complete. I know its very confusing. Didn't even know about this spreadsheet until recently.
Here's their spreadsheet ask those that maintain it. They are listed at top.

Hi guys! thank you so much for your support. I just got back from my interview and We GOT APPROVED! everything went professional and smooth. I was asked general simple questions, when did we get married, how did we meet, when was our first date, How many times has he visited and that's it. I'm so glad I am able to breath and say this process is almost over! yay

oh sorry you had to wait for so long, I'm happy you finally got CC, when is your interview?
I told the operator "dont put me into supervisor review ! i might get reviewed tomorrow"
but she said that she had to, that i wouldn't get reviewed otherwise.
I think i did get reviewed on july 28, because the title of the checklist email is the date of my new scanned date (july 6)
but the checklist didn't make sense...
and two operators said it was a false checklist so my mother in law and I believed that
...

claclaa, sorry about that, but have faith and be strong, everything will be good soon. I started this process with USCIS in May 2014, and just got my final CC on July 23 ,2015....So you will shortly be there

So sorry Claclaa! It doesn't necessarily have to be 42 days.. but that is the maximum..or longer.. I pray you wont have to wait that long. I also have been through that hell of a place.. i know the feeling..

I hope this week would be a better week for all of us Jamaican just keeping my fingers crossed.

I'm pretty new to this page and I love everything about it. This particular topic caught my attention for two reasons:-
1. I'm Kenyan so mostly our cultures are not very different with those of Ugandans.
2. I believe in true love. Yes, I'm that old fashioned.
Anyways, here's what I can tell you. First off the church elder is ripping you off your money and I think he is doing this with cahoots with your fiance, who, by the way, doesn't mean well. The Ugandan and Kenyan cultures call for civil marriage, atleast for traditionalists like my parents. But your fiance, if she honestly loved you, would negotiate on your behalf since she knows you better than the rest of them. That's what I did with my fiance. Cos I not only love and care for him, but I protect him, too. He protects me. The least your fiance could do is protect you from scammers, too bad, she is in the clique.
So you pick Kampala Serena and she opts for some village hotel? Who doesn't love anything Serena? I know I do. So....here's the pill. She is cheating on you. She is running away from someone she is seeing behind your back. She wants to have her cake and eat it.
You are better off running away now or as has been told earlier, give her an impromptu visit.
All the best, all the same.

Both are red flags....flashing in neon lights. They are a clan with a plan ! Run.

1040A accompanied by W2 is acceptable.

For me every place is for worship. Do you have any problem in that? If yes you can just ignore it instead of answering it.
However many thanks for your suggestion and I have checked the embassy website. They don't entertain emails checking for the status.

Thanks, just created my signature.

Yay!!!! Thanks for the info ItsGonnnaBeWorthIt!!

Congratulations! One more and LAST step is left for you

Ceemu , how are u? We're still waiting ooooooooo. God is in control.

Hello everybody! My interview was approved this morning
Thanks Vj for all the help I received, especially our enchantress Dwheels76 who predicted my fortune some time in January All my blessings coming towards you, Dear! I wish you all the best in your life!
If anyone is interested, here is some info (I will write an Embassy's review later):
1. My appointment time was 8:30, I was let in at 8:15. I was a SINGLE live soul in the waiting room! It took several minutes for somebody to come up at the window to take my documents (original documents, Photos, Police Certificates and Medical). When the lady check my name I saw 4 more names on the list for today's appointment. It makes me wonder how come I had to wait 76 days for the interview? They didn't look busy at all!!!
2. In about 5 minutes I was called for an interview, did fingerprints at the beginning. The Consul was friendly and very professional. Questions were popping out like rockets. He mostly went all the way through DS-260. There were LOTS of questions. I mean - A LOT. Some required short, but precise answer, but few times he said 'tell me more about it'. I did good, I think. At some point I offered him to take a glance at our pictures and such, but he said he doesn't need to see any evidence as our relationship is 'solid'. I was not asked ANYTHING extra to show. Nothing!
3. The whole interview took about 20 mins, the Consul returned me all original documents and even certified/translated documents. Good! I will sure need them in a future. He congratulated me on approval and told me to come on Thursday to pick up my passport.
4. Conclusion: my interview wasn't easy, but quite fluent, I had to be concentrated all the time. All time I spent at the Embassy: 8:15 entered - 9:00 popped out.
Whoever got their interview approved or still waiting for it, I wish you all the best!
