Hi
We got our Noa2 on. 5 Nov.
Did you receive any communication or letter from Mumbai consulate ?
Did you get your police clearance certificate?
How will you book your medical appointment?
you submit the Ds160 and then booked appointment after paying fees? Before any communication from
Mumbai Consulate ??

@Ashu25 After NOA2 we got email from NVC with Case ID. You need the Case ID # to check status of case online and see where it is at. If your status says Ready at Mumbai consulate, follow up with them for an interview letter if you have not received in email already. At that point you can complete the DS-160, schedule interview online and pay visa fee. We contacted through email and got responses in 2 business days for both NVC and Consulate. Yes police clearance certificate is done. Medical has to be booked directly with the approved panel physicians office. Ideally book that atleast 7 days before interview.

Thanks SJ
Just checked the case status is ready, but have not received any email or notification
Is the email id you contacted this —

I received email saying they shipped my packet 4- but i read in their email my apartment name on the address in inaccurate and that is why it is not getting delivered . What courier service / postal department did you get yours from?

Thank you! We got approved!

For the consulate, I am not sure if the fiance is allowed inside along with beneficiary.
They said we will get a text message when the passport is ready for pickup. Normally this takes a week.

Congratulations..please the experience and questions you face

Hi Sarah and Jerry
Share something about interview

Hi Sarah and Jerry
After interview approval, when did you receive your visa and passport?

@Ashu25 It was ready in 2 days. We picked it up a week after the interview.

Hi all
How you booked the appointment
First OFC (is it biometric)?
After booking OFC does it open consular/interview page?

@Siggy
Do we have to schedule appointment, i hear they provide the date, n currently the biometrics are not happening due to covid.. correct me if im wrong

Yes at present embassy aren't conducting any interviews..But I am asking you all how you booked the appointments? After booking OFC (Biometric) does it take you to next page for consular interview date?

Yes the OFC and Interview are booked at the same time.
*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
