Good point Shauneg, I'll try edit it.
Just a quick question, whereabouts will it updated to say "ready" - on the Visa status check link frias1983 provided, or on my own Immigrant Visa sign in page that the NVC gave me, the one where we logged in to pay our fees, submit our DS-260 etc.
Yeah I didn't think they scheduled it for me, I just wasn't sure if the case had to have reached a certain stage before I was allowed to schedule it. So I'd need to wait for my interview letter?
