If my priority date is not current, does the NVC not schedule the interview?

The immigration process to the United States can be complex, especially when it comes to employment-based categories such as EB-3. It is important to understand each step of the process to avoid misunderstandings and ensure that you follow all the country’s regulations.

In the specific case of scheduling interviews by the National Visa Center (NVC), the fact that your priority date is not current means that your visa number is not yet available according to the Visa Bulletin. Until this occurs, the NVC will not schedule the interview. In other words, even if your case is in progress, the interview will only be scheduled when the priority date becomes current. During this period, the case remains under review, and you may be asked to submit additional documents or fulfill other requirements.

It is worth emphasizing the importance of staying informed through official sources such as the Department of State and the Visa Bulletin website, and strictly following the United States immigration laws. If you choose to seek assistance, make sure to consult specialized and trustworthy companies or professionals, avoiding miracle promises and misleading marketing campaigns that guarantee results. This caution is essential so that you can make informed and safe decisions during your immigration process.

Monitoring the progress of your case attentively and following the correct procedures are essential measures for a smoother process in compliance with current regulations.
