CR 1 visa waiting for interview letter from Mumbai, India
Hi,
NVC approved our case Oct 29th, 2025. I heard it usually takes about 2.5 months to get the interview letter. When looking at the website it still shows they are scheduling cases approved from Sept 2025. Anyone here that got approved in October started getting interview letters yet?

Hi Annamma, thanks for sharing your timeline! 😊
It’s very normal for NVC scheduling to lag behind the approval date by a few weeks to a couple of months. If your case was approved in late October 2025, it’s possible interview letters haven’t started going out yet — they often process cases in batches by approval month, so cases from October usually start receiving letters in mid-to-late December or early January.
If you want, I can walk you step-by-step on how to track your CR-1 interview and prepare all your documents, privately — it usually makes the process less stressful and ensures you’re ready once the letter comes.
