I just got an emailed PDF with my flight itinerary, but as far as I know no fax...so I don't actually know the time of my interview (just the date). Did you guys get the PDF and fax at the same time?

I'm local, so just the fax!

I sent in my form around noon central time yesterday. Hope I hear something soon. I had to block out a fair number of days because of clerkship obligations.

I just received my flight itinerary via email. Nothing has come in via fax.

To the anonymous poster who got an email today: when did you fax your form in? I faxed mine Monday afternoon and still no word.

Same here. I have to imagine it varies somewhat, whether by component or by location.

I'm the poster who got the email today. I faxed my travel survey in around noon on Monday and got my itinerary today. Still haven't received any fax regarding my actual interview, though I know others have.

FWIW, there's a new Community post by Deana Willis providing an update on scheduling/travel.

As per Ms. Willis' post, should those of us with a flight itinerary for the last week of interviews just expect to get the actual time of the interview in a few weeks?

Did anyone else give a different receiving fax number than the fax machine they sent it from? I sent it out from the school fax, but gave my home fax number to receive faxes.

Yes. I sent mine from hellofax.com, but I had the interview info sent to my work fax. No issues.

Also, I'm interviewing in the last week and know my exact interview date/time.

Where can I find the threads under the Community link on the application website? The latest post I see on there is for information technology on July 22. Where under the Community link do I look?

Also waiting for my fax back.... (I faxed my schedule yesterday morning)

For those of you who have received travel information, would you mind sharing which component(s) you're interviewing with?

faxed in Monday around 3pm. Just received my itinerary via email

Anyone know anything about staying overnight in hotels? Anyone else have overnight itinerary?

It looks like they booked three of my interviews three days in a row, so I will be staying overnight in two different cities. The itinerary had my flight numbers, but no hotel info.

You book your own hotels, and they'll reimburse you up to the amount of the govt per diem (that is, there's a cap, but it's plenty to get you something reasonable. Just not the Ritz). I think it's in the interview info under overnight stays?

Anyone who faxed on Monday still waiting for a response?

Anyone who faxed on Monday still waiting for a response?

I am. I have four interviews, though, in some disparate locations. I'm guessing that's part of the hold up.

[Anonymous User]

One interview. Faxed Monday. No news.

Anyone who faxed on Monday still waiting for a response?

I faxed on Tuesday; no response. I have one interview with EOIR. On my travel survey I gave no restrictions. My theory, at least what I tell myself to not stress over it all day, is that they figure out people with restrictions first and then plug in the rest because they are more flexible. Anyone else with EOIR interview with no date restrictions hear back?

Anyone else get an EOIR interview in Miami? I wasn't aware they were doing interviews there. Did something change?

Second-quoted anon here. Got my itinerary, but no fax re. actual interview times.

Per Ms. Willis:

This message is only for HP candidates interviewing ONLY with EOIR, OCIJ.

We have added three additional interview locations: Miami, Los Angeles and San Francisco. If it is less costly to the government, you may be scheduled for one of these locations

Can anyone shed light on what an AUSA interview is like?
