What is CC? Lol I’m still waiting to pay they haven’t given me a MVR# yet

Case Complete. Look at my timeline becuz I couldn't find much information from Cases in Dakar when I started. Your at the NVC stage now, it took 5 months from there until interview.

Hi everyone,

Has anyone received the appointment interview for this month, I've been waiting since May, I was hoping to get it at the end of July. Does anyone know when is the last day they stop scheduling?

Thanks in advance.

 

They will start scheduling again the first two weeks of August.

First interview set by NVC. The second interview set by Petitioner  (reaffirmed petition).

I have my interview scheduled.

I understand what your saying about taking off from work,It is difficult and not cheap. Some people on here can give advice but the way the are coming off is so nasty. Just do your research and go in believing everything will be approved. Copy everything from conversations with him and his family, take pictures of each visit. You will be fine!!

So they had just (that same day)  scheduled your interview when you called?

Yes, maybe earlier that day, but i thought it was a coincidence after I call they send the letter. I did call Monday and nothing was scheduled so between Tuesday and Wednesday interview sceduled.

Am hoping we get something tomorrow morning. Their emails seem to be sent overnight so maybe they will work on ours today.

For those who have called to find out their interviews have been scheduled. How long afterwards have you received the official email?

 I know that the Case Completed email can sometimes take a few days to be sent ( mine took a week) so is it the same for the Interview Scheduled  email?

 

@Jacky U.

No, I called first then 10min later they emailed me the letter

CC complete 04/23/2018

Interview-08/16/2018

I am so excited! this process has taken forever and we almost there. Praying for APPROVALS for all upcoming interviews!!!!

I agree, its tiring and at the end our fate is in someone else's hands.

Hi all, 

 

I'm new to the forum, and just looking for some support.  We had our packet accepted on 2/29 so based on current time lines we are looking best case scenario  end of July before we hear anything on the first round.  Luckily its not that far away.  The phone conversations get a little tough and mundane because with him not here and me not there, the little day to day things just don't seem as important.  We are looking at scheduling me a trip to visit him again in July, but the separation is killing me.  How do you all deal with being apart?  Anything you can share would be greatly appreciated.

It never gets any easier, communication is very important in LDR. Video calls, messaging, and talking about your future plans will help. 

Have anyone ever gone through the experience of NVC deleting or losing their file? I called NVC to see if I had a case number and invoice number, and I did, so the representative provided the numbers and I wrote them down quickly because I was at work. Later that night I was speaking to my husband about our case and he wanted to know the numbers I didnt have them with me, so I called NVC back it was on a Friday around 10pm the first rep was a guy and he told me he cant find my number, so Im like what, that doesnt make since I spoke with someone earlier, he clearly wanted to get me off the phone, we hung up and I called back right away and spoke with a woman, she did some investigating and told me to call back in a hour the managers was in a meeting and at this point Im becoming angry I dont want to go through the weekend not knowing whats going on. I hangup with her and call back and get a rep named Brian, i explained everything and ask if they record calls maybe he can go back if I can provide the time I called earlier that morning he than put me on hold for maybe 15minutes he went and got a supervisor, they proceeded to ask different questions and I explained something is not right. So they had to get someone else involved, Im about to cry at this point because I have been waiting so long to get to this point. Brian came back to the phone and said they found my information, look like someone deleted your file by mistake I was shocked he provided my numbers again and wished me a goodnight. Thank god I called back because if I didn't call that night and decided to wait for the confirmation email I would have never recieved it. Moral of the story stay on top of NVC. If you have any stories of your experience with the visa process please share.

Im so sorry to hear your going through this, you have been with this man for 9years and he act totally different when he enter the USA. Continue to pray on your marriage because god is the only one who can get you through this. You dont deserve the stress he is bringing you, put your foot down with him. Shame on him they talk good when they in their country but be another person in ours.

we did K1. I don't know about spouse visa. I'm sure it is similar. Did you complete the D160 and pay the fee. If you go on the Dakar us embassy website you will find information.

Okay. Yes that option is only for the K1 the spouse schedule interviews thru NVC. I have completed everything and recieved case complete 04/30, so im just waiting for Dakar.

Once you filed the D160 and paid the fee, it opens the portal to schedule an appointment.

What portal? And is that for spouse visa or Fiance

Hello VJ Members,

 

Any approval for K1 or CR1 at the Dakar Embassy? Just wondering what is the approval rate. Anyone on AP from the Dakar Embassy.

 

Thank you.

Hey, is anyone still waiting for a London interview date? I am case complete 30th April and i’m so frustrated that i’m still waiting, when i can people with case complete after me being scheduled. I’m calling every day 😔😔😔😔

Hi Kim,

I am also case complete April 30 but for Dakar Embassy, but no interview yet. I was wondering where are you looking to see that other people are being scheduled?

Hello all,

This  is for any VJ users who have gone throught the interview in Dakar. How long did it take to get scheduled and interviewed? What questions was asked and how many? And which medical Doctor you recommend? I am currently waiting for a date, I know we are almost at the finish line, but Im so ready for this to be complete.

Hello, I am a US Citizen that filed an i-130 and got a priority date of March 13th 2017. It was sent to the California Service Center.

 

I would like to know has anyone who applied in January, February, March, April or even May 2017 got their i-130 approvals yet? I am hoping to get some guidance on to how much more I have to wait until my wife immigrates to lives with me.

 

Any clues for me? USCIS website processing times haven't updated in months. Thank you. 

Did you call them because you should have heard something back by now. My priority date is June 2017 and I am now doing consular processing.

Omg JFH you have given me so much hope!!! Thank you! Your right it is best if i stay here and be ready for him to come. We have spoken so much about the day he will come and how I will react that day I cant wait to hug him and see his face. I visualized when you purchased that one way ticket, but that feeling you had was probably unforgettable I cant wait for that day. Thank again for your positive words.

Yes, I most definitely will I need all the support I can get! And will love to read or speak with anyone who is going through what we are and their journey.

Thank you for responding EandH0904.

I have considered everything and its just not a good answer for this. I think Im stronger than him because I stay busy with work and my kids but when I have those lonely days its hard to shake. My job only allow me 2 weeks at time and it could take a good 24 to 48hrs to get there depending on the flight. It just sucks because the goodbyes never get easier and I know its a big change for my kids. I spent New Years there and it seem each month there is something that we should be celebrating together Anniversary, Birthdays, but thank you I needed to read that from you I know Im not alone

My husband and I have now been married for 1 year, He is Malian and I am American and acourse he is in Africa Im in the USA. I have a question, have anyone moved out the country to be with their spouse while waiting for the spouse visa to be approved? I feel that I have easier access to everything once NVC start asking for forms and fees I can be prepared here in the USA. Also if I move now to Africa it means income will be put on hold because I am the one who work fulltime now. I have savings but moving with 2 kids will take much of it, I just need some advice I miss my husband very much and he misses me, but im pulling in both directions.
