New Delhi embassy. I actually came to find out I made an error on the profile at ustraveldocs.com  AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. 

 

I emailed them. Waiting for response. 

When I emailed them, they sent me one back which had a username and password for ustraveldocs.com. I just followed the link and didn’t have to create an account. Just change the password to a new one. I don’t know if that means I can schedule it. I think I’ll call them today

No does the beneficiary have to courier something to nvc? I’m reading all kinds of instructions. It’s confjsing me!!!!

No he has to send you the affidavit of support and its supporting documents, new letters of intent to marry, and the copy of the I-129f petition to your address before the interview. You’re supposed to take that and more proof of ongoing relationship to the interview with you.

Hi! Anyone giving interview at the Mumbai embassy, India? Best of luck and wish everyone who is waiting for their NOA2 to get em quick!!!

Ohhh how strange.  The NVC case tracker said its ready for interview and I paid the fees and they unlocked it.  

 

Thank you for your reply.  

 

How long did you have to wait before you could book the interview?????

Did you get a letter from the embassy? I wrote to them as soon as it said case ready on the tracker and they replied to me asking for a scanned copy of my passport. I’m hoping I’ll get a reply from them by tomorrow. I think you can’t schedule an interview until they have instructed you to. Let me know how it goes. Which embassy are you gonna be at?

Guys, the CEAC tracker says my case is Ready. So now, can I just go ahead and set up my interview appointment or do I wait for them to get in touch with me first? I could probably also email them to ask about my case. Idk. Help!! @Noonymoon What did you do? Which embassy is your interview going to be in?

Hello!! Any beneficiary from India ? Wanted to ask how long is the actual visa interview and what kind of questions do they ask? It would be great if someone could advise ! Thankkk you

Hi, I’m from India. I am at the ‘in transit’ stage right now from the nvc to Mumbai consulate.  I think the interview varies from case to case but from the reviews I have read the actual interview lasts from 5-15 minutes. But the time we go inside to we come outside is around 3 or 4 hours. In regards to the questions, I think they already have decided by looking at your case before you interview whether there are any red flags and accordingly they will grill you or they won’t. Usually they’re simple questions about your fiancé(e) and your time together that you should have no problem answering if it’s a legit relationship.

Hey Ladies and Gentlemen, I have a question hopefully you guys can help me out. So I'm the petitioner and my fiance and I were discussing having a church ceremony in Mexico once we have the k1 visa, that way we have her family there, after we will cross and get married on the court in united states with my family. Will this affect the visa in any way?

Correct me someone if I am wrong. But as you’re technically married(legally or religiously, doesn’t matter) the k1 visa essentially becomes the wrong visa to enter The United States in. You’re entering to get married. So, I would think it’s better to put it off until you get married first in the US. You can be denied at the POE too even with the visa in hand if they get to know you have had a church wedding because then you’re committing visa fraud.

Oh ok he called back. That’s what I was wondering  thank you for these info. Good luck for everything! Hopefully I get mine today aaaargh

You’re welcome. Good luck with yours too 👍🏼😊

Just now, Marion said:

Well we got notified on 10/10 like you but the hard copy says 10/6... so hopefully they have it today!!!

 

Another question: how did you get your case number etc? They emailed it to you? 

My fiancé started calling on 10/17 and on 10/18 the case was received at NVC. 10/19 he called again and we received the case number and an invoice number. 

I don't know if we are supposed to receive an email or anything by mail from the NVC. Right now I’m just gonna track it on CEAC and see when it gets to the embassy and then schedule my interview

Oh man.  Mine worked right away.  So sorry. I would try it again in the morning.  Then just call them.  Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I hate when these things happen! 

Update: It started showing at NVC after midnight EST. Thanks for your help

I will do that. Thank you. I hope it works tomorrow 🤞🏼

 You're welcome!!! I had the same problem... choose the "immigrant" option on the case tracking site. I was able to begin tracking right away  

I tried both immigrant as well as non immigrant.

I meant to quote this in the comment I just posted. Technology hates me.  Hahahahaha

Thank you. Do you know how long after getting the case number can the case be tracked? We got it today and checked on the ceac tracker and it says the search doesn’t find any data..

When was your NOA2? I’ve been calling too but nothing yet  October 6th (I mean I think that’s normal lol but I am more and more impatient every day) 

Our noa2 was 10/10. Well that’s when we got notified. But the hard copy says 10/9. 

Keep calling. It’ll be there soon. So close now. Good luck 

Received our case number today!!! 

Question: What’s the invoice number for?

2 minutes ago, mcs said:

Call them again today; if they received your case, it doesn't take that long for them to assign a case number. 

I read that on this forum and then asked my fiancé to do it. He’ll call after 7pm EST today 

We finally got our hard copy NOA2 in the mail today!! The notice date says 10/9. We were notified by text on 10/10. So I’m guessing they actually worked on Columbus Day and updated online the next day. Which is why it rained approvals last Tuesday. 

Good luck to all those waiting. Your NOA2s are just around the corner

How the heck does 1 person get approved on may 10th ahead everyone??

I think you mean me. Just got lucky I guess. My Noa1 took longer than anyone I’ve seen here. Your turn will come too. Be positive😊. Good vibes will bring positivity.

The photo loading can be tricky so you may have to play around with it or adjust the size.

Thanks. That was really helpful. I haven’t gotten around to upload the photo yet. I need to go get my picture taken first because although it hasn’t been 6 months from the last picture, I have my hair cut really short now. 

What did you use to resize our photo?

Hi Mayer’s, I have been filling the DS160 and I have a few questions. @LabOz would appreciate your help

1.  National identification number- Is that supposed to be my Indian passport number or should I click does not apply since it’s not a US id number?

2. Person/ Entity paying for your trip- Should it be Self or Other Person? (I’ll be paying for my own plane tickets)

3.  On all the boxes where it asks for given names, should it be just the first name or the first and middle names?

4. For the level of education, do I enter all my institutions since and including high school or just the latest one?

Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks 😊
