Slots are released on a weekly basis and the avg processing time is 10-14 days. If you get a 221g, you’ll have to wait until the consulate opens for regular processing to appear for an interview, else it’s smooth.

What day are the slots released?

Anyone have undesirable side effects from the meds that you take for depression or anxiety? How do you cope with them? For me, the side effects are the lesser of two evils, because the meds themselves are working for me.

I take Bupropion (Wellbutrin), and is effective in helping me with my depression, but the side effect that I experience, memory issues, is pronounced and bothersome. My psychiatrist and I tried reducing my dosage, and it lessened the side effect, but it became quite clear that I needed to revert to my normal dosage to address my depression.

At one point we tried a "cocktail" by adding a small dose of Abilify, but that med was disastrous for me, and I needed to curtail it for my own well being (YMMV).

Friend of mine was working with a desi consultancy. She found a better gig and moved, but the desi consultancy refused to provide an experience letter. They were mad at her that she moved and wanted to give her a hard time with eventual GC filing. Why are people like this? Shouldn’t they be understanding and help her since she is desi too. She reached out to a lawyer and the lawyer mentioned that he has seen such cases, apparently only with desi consultancies. WTF?
