I’ll try tomorrow after work. I was at work today when this came out, and I figure NVC phone lines are swamped this evening. No wonder!  I want to call but I can wait one more day. I wonder how long it takes to receive the email? Anybody know?  maybe I don’t want to wait that long, lol.

It won't allow you to update it online. You could try calling and asking. 

You can tell any changes to the CO during the interview and they will update your info on the spot. No need to worry.

Yes! Give him positive words so he can go in that appointment confident in himself 😊

He said they did. He didnt have either. We contacted NVC several times asking about this and they  said bc my husband came before 16 he would not need it. We asked NVC what to say if/when they ask at the consulate. NVC said to tell consulate its not needed for this case. Even though he was sent to the black chairs, he was still approved. Maybe they just ask everyone, honestly, IDK. 
 
They asked him for pictures at the first window as well. One guys' pics were rejected bc they were "too dark", Im assuming that means no flash. As of yet, pictures not returned. I hope we get them back bc they were my scrapbook pages. (I look to scrapbooking, so Hobby Lobby gets all my money, lol). I sent hubby with about 5 scrapbook pages of pics front and back. Pics of us with friends, family, wedding pics, just us being silly, us at church.
 
I pray this info is helpful, bc this forum has helped me tremendously! 😘

My husband picked up his Visa this morning! Our interview in Santo Domingo was Wed 5/23, status changed online to Issued the following day and we received the email on Friday 5/25 it was ready for pickup. Was pleasantly surprised how quick it was! We were vacationing after the interview so he just go the chance to pick it up today. We just paid the green card fee so now everything is all set!  So happy!!!

Thank you all so much. More good news from CDJ.  My husband said his interview was about 10 mins, while the same lady that did his interview kept one guy for 40 mins. He said, they are meticulous and take their time going through the papers they're interested in.
 
 

No problem! I know I won't be getting an interview scheduled this time around but please let us know those who do! 

Called NVC today was told they just started scheduling for the next round of appointments in CDJ/Mexico today! 

Yeah, i hope we do... atleast you can visit the US being a Canadian citizen. But i'm sure this painful interview waiting journey is same for everyone.  For my wife... only option to be with me to get the interview letter and then get the visa.... Please God....pleaseeeee!!! :))

Our fingrs are crossed for all as the window for the assignment of July interviews approaches.  
 
 

It's depressing and stressful! It's even worse when your husband isn't even in the same country with while the appointment is scheduled...😥😭

Hey, imasunshine, did you receive your email about cc on MArch 5? I did, and that’s what I put on the spreadsheet, but then when i called NVC to bug them, they saud my cc was Feb 26? Thought maybe I should change my date on the spreadsheet because of others who are depending on it for hope of when to expect their appointment. 
Hoping and praying with the rest of you all that we get an appointment this round, as well as a thumbs up when we do go to CDJ. I keep worrying they’ll find something to deny. Prayers up to all❤️
 
 

@imasunshine I am praying we both get good news soon! It's all in God's hands and will happen in his perfect timing!

as of this morning when i called a big fat no

Faithunlimited, please keep us posted. Your take on things has been a positive support. My husband and I will, God willing, be in CDJ in July so I'll be paying attention. Good luck and Godspeed!

Congrats!! Yes, I've been involuntarily conjuring up all sorts of ways ours could end badly. I think I'm reading too many people's stories. At least I know what things to prep and forewarn my husband about, which I didn't before. Enjoy your freedom!

My husband left yesterday night from Central Texas to CDJ. It took approximately 10hrs but he finally made it. He said crossing the border was difficult (due to all the steps he had to take). He is at his first appointment now and I can tell that he is ready to return to the States. He said it (CDJ/MX) is not like anything that he had imagined/remembered (he has been here in States since teenager). 
 
What questions did they ask your husband? My husband's interview is on Tuesday (5/29/18). This entire process has been very humbling. Congrats on your approval, to God be the glory!

Definitely! So many long nights thinking about the possible bad outcomes but it's finally over 😍

My husbands appointment was on the 22 in Juarez and today at about 2 we got the email that his Visa was ready for pick up! He already crossed the border to El Paso, Texas rented a car in the airport and is on his way all the way to Fresno, California (like 15 hour drive) so happy and excited 😊
 

Not yet, they're saying they start scheduling next week. But last month they started on the 24th so maybe they're just saying that? Who knows  It will be 3 months since CC for us in a couple days. @imasunshine

Hoping for an Interview to  be scheduled this week. CC Feb. 26 Ciudad Juarez 

Thanks for the info. Now to wait and see if I get an email. 👨‍💻

I think you should be getting one this time, can believe you have been waiting 3 months! It is ridiculous! 

For those waiting for interview in Juarez: I just called NVC and spoke to a really nice rep who told me that Juarez has not given them dates yet for the next round of interviews, that CDJ usually let them know around the end of the month (they are one of the last ones to give them dates go figure ) so she said most likely they will get those dates either end of this week or at the beginning of next week (after memorial day), so those waiting with CC from Feb/March look out for those emails soon or you may also give them a call end of this week or next week.
