Auckland: F4 visas issued
Immigrant visa: Brother or sister of U.S. citizen at least 21 years of age, and their spouse and children
Interview scheduling at Auckland
NVC is scheduling most F4 interviews for cases that became documentarily complete in:
All three categories: immediate relatives, family preference and employment
Current
Current can also mean Auckland is not scheduling immigrant visa interviews at all.
Compare with the month NVC emailed you that your case was documentarily complete.
What this month means
It is not a wait time: it is the month NVC is scheduling most interviews for now, and it can move backwards. “Current” means NVC is already scheduling cases from the update’s month; it can also mean the post schedules none, so check the embassy’s own website (usembassy.gov). Documentarily complete: NVC has accepted all your documents.
Family preference and employment cases also need a current priority date in the Visa Bulletin.
