I am starting a new thread to track cases from NVC - embassy to GC.
The best news for RN in China, Phillippines and India has been great and informative thread, but I think it is more appropriate and convenient if we start a new thread.
Also with the rapid scheduling of interviews for most of us, I am looking beyond the CP and anticipating the GC!
The August interview schedules are out already in India, and recently in the Philippines and hopefully in China.
Here is my case details
Category : EX Schedule A
USCIS receipt : April 2004
Processing Center : Vermont
I-140 approved : October 2004
NVC case number : MNL2004813XXX

Packet 3 sent back to NVC : May 3, 2005
NVC case completed : May 16, 2005
Consular Interview : August 29, 2005
Visa received : ???
Date of entry in the US :???
GC receive : ????
I hope you can also post here your details interview experience.
Please take the time to do some reading on this forum about what is going on in Canada right now, you were speaking of a pilot program that we are no longer hearing about. Taking and passing of the NCLEX-RN exam does not give one licensure in Canada as the LPN. Even a US trained nurse is unable to do that.
And be aware that if you are in Canada working under a signed contract for a different company, the original one in the US has every right to cancel out everything for you immediately if they wish and they would cancel out all of the waiting that you have done and you would be starting over again and have to find a new employer.
hi... thanks for your inputs... at this time I am no longer interested in working for my US employer. My friends are also going to canada, so i guess I would like to take the other route that is to give up my plans to work in the US. Besides all the expenses for my NCXLEX exam and visa fee bill were my personal expense.
Most of my closed friends are planning to work in canada. I am really in confusion right now. My employer is in Alberta Canda and your right I need to take the CRNE also even though I am already a US-RN. I am willing to take the exam as long as I can leave the country soon... Right now there is no assurance yet if the October VB will process March 1, 2006 or they will go back again to the latter months.

No news for me. Its a wait game til Oct. Though NVC autoresponse hasn't change, still "case complet april 24......".
I had also read from the other forum someone commented there that if the law firm who's handling your case is quite known or popular, then there is a strong possibility of prioritizing their respective cases. Is this true? If that would exist, then that would be really be unfair for many.
Fruity, I was also getting the same response when I called the NVC the other day. I know visas are unavailable but was somehow hoping for some miracles. hehehe... Anyway, we only have 2 or 3 months to look forward to, and I know we can still wait that much since we had waited for so many years now. Let's all keep each other's updated to hopefully see some postive outcomes. God is gracious to those of us who waited patiently and took this way LEGALLY. I hope He'll hear our prayers this time....

No, that's not true and may even be the other way around.
Just research on the current H1B visa investigation being conducted by the US Dept. of Labor and DHS where the law firm being investigated first is the biggest law firm that does these things and there is already at least 1-2 more law firms being lined-up after them.
When things are being investigated, the bigger ones are the ones being lined-up first.

These are things that you need to explore first.
