Thank you! I will be so glad when this is over and she has her green card. 

Hi,

We are close to the end hopefully of obtaining my daughters green card. She is getting it in the unmarried child of us citizen category, the NVC has received all our paperwork. What is the next step? I am getting very confused by everything I am reading online.

Do we need to submit a notification of readiness?

Can she just book her medical now?

Do you know how long it is between NVC receiving everything and scheduling the interview in London? I think I read 60 days somewhere.

Any help is appreciated.

Just so you don't go too crazy, ours went from Ready to AP on Thursday. From AP to Idsued Friday morning. Didn't get the email saying it had gone to the courier until early yesterday afternoon. Picking ours up this morning. ?

I used their online contact form and it took a couple of days. But it tells you to wait a few weeks on the form

If you haven't received a letter in the next couple of weeks I would contact them. My interview letter didn't arrive. Luckily I messaged them and was told it had been scheduled for ten days time. But do give it a couple of weeks.

Keeping fingers crossed for you.

The reply I got today was from my first email on the 15th September. I am guessing they have a back log of inquiries, so don't give up hope just yet.

I just got an email through from the Embassy, our letters must have been lost because we have an interview scheduled for October 5th. They are resending out the letters.

I just got an email through from the Embassy, our letters must have been lost because we have an interview scheduled for October 5th. They are resending out the letters.

I got a reply from the Embassy, our letters had been lost. Our interview is October 5th!

I know exactly how you feel. Being so close to the end, I thought I would breeze through this stage. I'm so incredibly stressed, don't feel like I can relax until I get that appointment letter through. ?

I don't know, ours is DCF I-130. I've been going quietly out of my mind as it seems to be taking so much longer than others I have seen. I did see that my CEAC status updated today, but then I emailed last week to see if there was any news, so it could be them just looking at my case. That said, there has been no response to my email so I am hopeful that they assigned my appointment today. I will let you know if I get an appointment letter in the next couple of days.

They updated my medical on August 27th and my daughters on 1st September but still no interview date yet.

Checked my CEAC status today and it was updated again this morning. I'm hoping that means that the interview has been scheduled and I should get an interview letter in the next couple of days.

I've used that link once before and got a reply in a couple of days. I wonder whether the embassy is currently short staffed or swamped with applications. We were really hoping to be back in the US the first week of November but now that is looking less likely. It's incredibly stressful waiting on information, with no idea how long things will take.

Does anyone know the best way to contact the London Embassy? I filed my notification of readiness in July, the medical was August 4th. My CEAC status is ready for interview with the last update 27th August (1st September for my daughter). I'm getting very concerned as to why I still don't have our interview letters.

Any help is appreciated, in for another anxious weekend.

Keeping fingers crossed it changes today for you.

I beginning to think I am on the verge of becoming unhinged! I had the chance to go out to lunch with a friend, but declined. Just so I can sit at home, waiting by the door for the post to arrive; just in case the letters come today! I need a life, a new life, oooh like a new life in California..... now where is the mail ;-)

We are also waiting on interview letter. My status went to ready August 26th and my daughters September 1st. Checking the post like a crazy woman every day.

We are in Berkshire, I brought a letter from the GP and her school but the Dr insisted she would need a psychiatric report almost as soon as we started talking about my daughters problems.

Hopefully things will seem less bleak in the morning after we have spoken to a psychiatrist. Part of the problem is the school wrote theory had not seen any evidence of self harm this last year and my daughter stated her last self harming was November 2014. So I suppose time is a factor as well.

I think the best thing to do is take the GP's letter to a private psychiatrist, have him do the assessment and hope for the best.

No, she just said to get a psychiatrist to write a report and assess the scars.

Can an admin move the post if that would be better?

Had our medicals today, mine was fine I think but they were not happy with my daughters. Some of her self harm scars are still a bit brown from end of last year and she wants a psychiatric report doing and the psychiatrist to comment on the scars.

None of the doctors who treated my doctor are still at the hospital so we can't get a doctor who knows her to do it. I desperately need to find a psychiatrist to do the report as soon as possible.

Does anyone know of one?

Hi

My daughter and I have our medicals next week. Summer 2013 my then 14 year old daughter became depressed after several traumatic life events and began to self harm (cutting) a lot. She was admitted to the priory September to December 2013. She went back to school September 2014, caught up on all her missed schoolwork, and sat 11 GCSEs. She hasn't self harmed since October, has been off medication since November and discharged from cahms since January this year. I have letter stating the above for the to stating relapse is I likely, and a letter from school stating her preovress, improved mental health and their belief she is no longer risk to self or others.

I've been quoted £450 for private psychiatric evaluation - should I pay this and have it done before the medical or wait to see what they say. She has a lot of scars on arms, stomach and legs.

Any advice is appreciated
