I received the welcome letter and DQ with NVC last November. I am not from an EB-5 backlogged country. A friend a few months ahead of me in the process was scheduled his interview at the Hong Kong consulate within 2 months of receiving the welcome letter, while I am now approaching 7 months waiting. The response from NVC via the public inquiry form is essentially “keep waiting.” I do not understand why there is such a difference in waiting times compared to my friend, especially as the Hong Kong consulate is not one that typically has long wait times. Are there any actions I can take to address this issue?
