I contacted them via their website and I recieved an email from them the following morning.  I would suggest you call back on monday and ask of they received the email they are tricky at the doctors office. 

Do you have the email address and/or website? The US Consulate in Johannesburg just received our case today so we finally have an interview date on 20-Dec... but my fiancé needs to go ahead and make an appointment to have the medical exam done when he’s off work in November (he is a game ranger so his work schedule is weird- 6 weeks on, 2 weeks off). Thanks for the help!!

It’s been two or three weeks since I saw the schedule, but there were three open Thursdays in October and every Thursday in November except for Thanksgiving. 

 

They didn’t have December dates posted yet. 

I looked today and the first available date offered for the K visa interview to us was December 13th, which is a bummer as we were hoping to get a November interview date. Maybe they will add more dates due to the holidays? Not sure.

Hey just wanted to pop in and say congrats to everyone that were approved! Our case got to the embassy today! We are soooo excited!

Hi Leah- tell Matt we said good luck on his interview this Thursday!! Also, just wanted to know if he emailed the US embassy in Joburg to confirm they received the case right after you received notice from the NVC? Just received an email that our case left the NVC today... wondering if he should email them tomorrow? We are hoping they receive our case soon so we can schedule Sabastion's medical appt and interview at the beginning of November!

Congrats! This gives me hope that we will get our NOA2 soon! Our date is April 13th. How did you receive your NOA2 notification? Was it through email or mail?  

Thanks! Received it via USPS, did not receive an email or text even though I signed up for them and received electronic notifications for NOA1. In the April 2018 NOA2 discussion board it looks like some couples have received theirs for April 2nd so yours should be here soon!! Keep checking the old/new website, since mine says approved there as well 😊

Hi all. We just received NOA2 on Sep 22nd (NOA1 receipt date Mar 23rd). My fiancé works in the bush and is only in Jo’burg every 6 weeks. Thus, we are hoping to do medical appt the week of Nov 6th and get Nov 15th interview date.

He already has his original (unabridged) birth certificate and applied for police clearance earlier this month, received a message that his clearance certificate has been finalised on Sep 27th, so just waiting for a message that tells him its ready to collect. Also need to send I-134 form before the interview using DHL if it still requires wet signature, but I’ve seen conflicting information on these forums. Can you clarify please, @Greenbaum?

Now just waiting on NVC to issue case number now. @kemm360 when do you advise filling out the DS160? I know it’s saved on the website for 30 days so if he fills out now, once it shows as sent to US embassy in Jo’burg, we can book interview- is that correct?! Thanks in advance!!

Ps, @Vintage girl I haven’t seen my fiancé since last October 2017 so almost 1 year. We also have a 4 month old little boy he’s never met, so I completely understand your emotions- frustration, anxious, hopeful with anticipation, excited. Many congrats on your recent approval! 🎉 

Finally received NOA2 🙌🏼

Confused since the NOA2 hardcopy notice date is 9/22, but USCIS website approval date is 9/24 (assuming since 9/22 fell on a Saturday). Can I call NVC to check status on 10/5 or should I wait until 10/8? I have already submitted a form inquiry as @Greenbaum suggested in an earlier response to update my email address with the NVC, so hopefully the NVC will email me when they receive the case (thus avoiding a phone call). 

Does anyone have specific information for the South Africa embassy? (i.e., P3 letter) My fiancé already sent off for the police clearance certificate two weeks ago in anticipation of NOA2 approval since it can take awhile- assuming this is ok?! Thanks ya’ll!
