US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionCalling Islamabad Embassy v 3
Hello all,

I am expecting my case to soon be completed at the NVC hopefully in a week or soish...
just curious to know how things are going lately, what the status with AP at the ISB consulate? Any personal experiences...?
Secondly, just read that once the case has been completed and NVC assigns an interview date, the embassy will not send anything? So is it NVC that mails the interview letter? (letter to enter embassy with)

any insights?

thanks

hi all!
Can anyone tell me how long is NVC taking to schedule CR1/IR1 interview in Islamabad. NVC says that they schedule interviews second week of every month, so if a case, let's say, gets completd on May 08, when will be the intervierw??? Please Reply!!! Thanks!!!!



I believe if you are lucky you might get an interview in June, however very slim chances since May 08 or rather if you really mean 09??? is in the second week of may. so probably the interviews for June might already be scheduled. But if you make it then you might have a slim chance, or else it would probably be in July.

Oh yaar I m so pisssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssed them stupid F*ing idiots sitting in lahore kachehri. they made a police certificate for my fiancee saying that she has been living in lahore since birth. And now.......... I m so tired man. I mean how dumb can one be. people just dont understand the directions. Guess who is going to be surprised when they see one person living at two places at a time (lahore and Kohat). I m sure u have guessed it already (the Great ISB embassy).

Tell me something yaar. My fiancee was born in lahore moved to kohat when she was 2 years old. Lived there til 2008 and recently came living in lahore. How m I gonna put this on certificate?

Arghzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz. anyone knows how to tell one when he is more than pissed? Looking forward to that word.

I believe people have been in AP longer than that. Earlier...back in Jan-March/April the AP estimate was 4-6 months. Nowadays it is 2-3 months. so definately they have sped up the process however it does not mean that a few of us can not fall in the black hole that might not end as estimated.
But i believe positive energy can bring changes....Duas make a hell of a difference and all ours prayers will definately pay off some day.

so, that means i go first, and then i sponsor him?

would be neat, and what's faster though?

i'm just really getting down on all this, i knew i had my work cut out for me when i started this process and yeah were not even finished with NVC, but i'm just thinking ahead in case, God forbid, sh$t goes down and they deny him or whatever...

and it just seems that they got a vendetta against ME men nowadays....which is sad, yeah i understand it in some sense, but it still isn't cool.


You can go first and sponsor him if you are a Canadian permanent resident or Citizen - I think L179 is a bit confused.

Anyway, you might want to look here Immigrating as a worker: am I eligible? - it is an interactive tool on the Canadian immigration website.



I agree, its only if Canadian PR or citizen, I was just saying that their process is quicker than US.

CanadaIs Canadian immigration easier than American immigration?
definately...but depends which route.
you could apply by profession, if they are in need of that profession...
or even spousal immigration, either way they do complete the process quicker.
