Hi Brit Simon ,
My case number is 2024EU217XX
I have a few more questions for you
1- After 2NL arrives KCC wil not care with me anymore for the file transfer process. Will the file transfer be safe if I email KCC before 2NL arrives? I don’t know how interested embassies gonna care in me after 2NL.
2- If you were me, would you wait for 2NL?
3- If you were me, can you trust Ankara Embassy ?
Best regards

Hi. You better take action now. You will be current for interview in the next visa Bulletin and if you had not taken action before then, you will be locked wherever you are. You have the possiblity to know which EU embassy does best for you to to the case transfer. You will be current in less than three weeks.

Regobertyuh is exactly correct. If you wait to become current in order to move you will be locked in to ANK who will never get to your case number. You have a small window to unlock and change your address to another country. DO NOT ask to move embassies, just change the address. Do that now.

1. Your 2NL will never arrive at ANK.
2. No
3. I can trust them to never get to your case number.

Hello, Dear Simon.
Please give me the NVC’s email address so I can contact them about expediting my interview. I’d like to contact the NVC through email about expediting our interview by stating our reasons for doing so, even though our case number is not current. I already contacted the KCC, but I did not receive a satisfactory answer. They just replied that my DS-260 is complete and attached unneeded samples, and who is responsible for scheduling interviews?
Thank you!

Hello Simon, hope you’re having a good day! I had changed (updated) my address on the DS-260 on the 8th of April. Do you think enough time has passed for me to now send a casual mail asking about my embassy?
Thank you.
April 23, 2024 at 12:45
Yes – do that before the end of the month just in case the next VB rises above your number.
April 23, 2024 at 13:16
Alright, I will do so now. Is there anything particular I should say? Or is it enough to just ask “hello I am enquiring to see if my embassy has been updated or not”.
Thanks again.

More like, “as you know I now live in XXX country, so can you kindly confirm that my embassy choice has been updated to YYY embassy”
April 23, 2024 at 13:43
Got it, just sent it now. Thank you again, I really appreciate it!

Hello Brit,
I know the burden of proof is on the applicant to show that they received an equivalent of a high school education/diploma.
Do you think it’s a good idea to get a foreign education evaluation from a NACES member to take to your interview to show that you do have an equivalence of a high school diploma?

That wouldn’t normally be required since the embassies are used to seeing various qualifications in their area.
