November 2014 Interviews

[Ellinora 72]

Thanks

Dont worry about yours. Mumbai Embassy is shut from tomorrow until 6th oct, That is the only reason they are processing it sooner

Oh, I just hope the consulate would hurry up and issue the visa already. I need to get the it by Friday, if I want to travel with husband.

Hey Guys,

I have just talked with a lady named Jean at NVC and she told me that the inteviews are being scheduled this week and the next week.

But she does not know if we (Our CC was on Sept. 15th) will get the November interview. It dépends on the capacity of each embassy.

She told me to call back in Mid October if we don't hear anything.

So anyway, it looks like they are starting scheduling the inteviews this week and next week (two weeks, she said) so some of you ( I hope all of us who already got CCs here) wil get the interviews scheduled sometime over the next two weeks.

FIngers crossed

Okay here is the history of the history of the interview scheduing.

We started this thread august 2012. From August 2012 until January 2014 interviews always started 2nd week of the month without fail. You call NVC they would always say "we will start scheduling 2nd week of the month". We refute that didn't believe it. Because now and then someone from any embassy would get a date at a time when no one was getting scheduled. But it would be this embassy or that one not all of them.

But There was no round 2 that was it. Than end of January 2014 they started scheduling for the next month interviews starting about the last 3 to 4 days of the month(usually 27th or 28th) for the not preceding month but next month after that. Than June 2014 was the first time of 1st and 2nd rounds it was nice having people wait just 2 weeks. But summer is the busy season.

The same with the Case complete email it use to take a week than again January 2013 it was instant. I remember mine came while I was on the phone getting my interview date. The lady was like we sent you an email 30 minutes ago. Now we are back to 1 week from case complete.

Thank you for the clarification! We appreciate your historical knowledge!

Good news! I hope that is the truth!

*********************

It's like some weird game we are playing where the time space continuum rules are constantly changing. Speed of light. Frequencies bending. Gravity disappears, then reappears Which way is up? It reminds me of a Talking Heads song this morning,.."This Must Be the Place"...from the Film/Album "Stop Making Sense"... (I was at that show where the video was taken btw)...A little music to brighten your days...Hit me on the head.

Home is where I want to be

Pick me up and turn me around

I feel numb, burn with a weak heart

Guess I must be having fun

The less we say about it the better

Make it up as we go along

Feet on the ground, head in the sky

It's okay, I know nothing's wrong, nothing?

I got plenty of time

You got light in your eyes

And you're standing here beside me

I love the passing of time

Never for money, always for love

Cover up and say goodnight

Home, is where I want to be

But I guess I'm already there

I come home, she lifted up her wings

I guess that this must be the place

I can't tell one from the other

I find you, or you find me?

There was a time before we were born

If someone asks, this is where I'll be

We drift in and out

Sing into my mouth

Out of all those kinds of people

You got a face with a view

I'm just an animal looking for a home

And we can share the same space for a minute or two

And you love me till my heart stops

Love me till I'm dead

Eyes that light up

Eyes look through you

Cover up the blank spots

Hit me on the head

congratulations !!! were you in Administrative Processing status for a long time ?

[Gitab 3]

APPROVED!!!! (happy dance)

Interview was fairly straightforward. was asked 3 questions and heard the magical words! "You have been approved"

Here are the questions I was asked:

1) What does your husband do. I replied. She asked can you tell in more detail about his job. I did.

2) How long do you know your husband. Was it an arranged marriage or love? When did your relationship turn romantic?

3) Did you have a reception/party after your marriage. Can you show me your wedding pics?

"you have been approved"

And what better, by the time I reached home from the consulate my status is :

Issued : Your visa has been printed. Depending on local procedures at the location where you were interviewed, your visa will be mailed or available for pickup soon. If there are further questions, or if we need updated contact information, you will be contacted.

DOES THIS MEAN, i MIGHT GET MY PASSPORT AND VISA BY TODAY EVENING ITSELF?

Congratulations!!!!

Ours is on October 16.

[dwheels76 5,461]

Our case was complete Sept 18, we're waiting for an interview!

This is probably a silly question but I see that some of you are talking about taking a 'new police report' to the interview. Does this mean we have to apply for another one in addition to the one that we already sent to NVC about three months ago? Or, can we just take the photocopy of the first one? thanks.

Congratulations I have added you to the spreadsheet. Welcome to the group.

[alaskabound 42]

Thank you to those that phoned NVC already today! I will be phoning sometime in the next couple hours. I will post my findings.

Congrats to those that got approvals and issued visas! Fantastic! Delighted for you!

A quick question for those of you out there and of course the lovely dwheels76: Has anyone done a DHL search recently to see if ANY cases have been shipped out from the NVC in the last week up until today? I tried for the first time just now, and it is giving me an error. I am hoping not just because there are none that have been sent, but just because I am doing it wrong. Would that give us any indication if ANYONE in the world has gotten an interview date scheduled recently, beyond the scope of the users of this thread?

[stackeria 280]

I'm on a plane all day today and won't be able to call NVC until tomorrow morning. Good luck everybody; I hope to see good news on this thread when I land this evening! 20 days since case complete for us... and counting...

I just checked shipments into Poland, for Sep 15-30, and to my surprise there has been 1 shipment per day every day except for 3 or 4 of the days (and the weekends).

So does that mean that they have been scheduling interviews for the last two weeks, or are they just slow sending out packages for people who were scheduled in the beginning of September? Or maybe there are expedites being shipped out daily?

I finally got the DHL tracking figured out. Try the example that I have listed below under 9/29. Then select your country. I have seen packages arrive in the UK but there is no way of knowing if it's my paperwork or not

EXAMPLE:

* Shipper´s Reference : EXP 25 sep 2014A

* Date range for shipment - From: 23 - 09 - 2014

* Date range for shipment - To: 29 - 09 - 2014

Account Number - Leave this blank

Shipment Destination: United Kingdom

EXP 23 sep 2014A

EXP 24 sep 2014A

Remember NVC sends out all kinds of packages. It's not a IR1/CR1 only DHL tracker. That's why the best way to track your stuff is to follow your case# on CEAC site.

If they have sent your package you can be sure you would have had an email telling you the interview date.

The tracking at best is a guess at "if its yours" . I have stated many times through the years I knew when my package sent exactly because I sent exactly 20 lbs of evidence with my IV package. 11 days later my package was sent to Lagos and it was 20 lbs. I called NVC and found out when they shipped I knew that was my package all the way up to the signing by Ben Obi. I don't know why they don't show weight any more but I notice it only appears when its heavy. LOL
