Yes you filled in your forms late, but you are also not current yet - so you could not get in to the August interviews anyway. You will be current for September, and given the March submission I expect you to get your 2NL at the same time as others that go current.

I have a question for anyone that had their interview in a non-english speaking country - especially in US embassy in Skopje, Macedonia.

The high school transcripts, can we use just originals from our country (only in one language - albanian from Kosovo), or do we need to translate them to english as well?

I can't tell you about Macedonia, but in Serbia we do not need to translate any document, I think that in Macedonia is the same situation.

The general guideline is that documents must be in either the official language of the country you are interviewing in, or translated to English. (I admit I am not familiar with Macedonia but I don't think Albanian is its official language?) Check embassy specific requirements - a couple are English only.

I am albanian from Kosovo. US embassy in Skopje deals with VISA applications from Kosovo.

all documents should be translated in English if they are in language other than Macedonian nomatter that the US embassy in Skopie handles the Kosovo cases. SusieQQQ is right

The instructions say:

Translation Requirements
All documents not in English, or in the official language of the country in which application for a visa is being made, must be accompanied by certified translations. The translation must include a statement signed by the translator that states that the:
  • Translation is accurate, and,
  • Translator is competent to translate.

You're interviewing in September in a year when they have already warned they expect to use up all their visa numbers. Do you really want to make assumptions about what is acceptable in the interview rather than following the rules? I highly doubt anyone getting even a temporary refusal (like AP for missing documents) during September will end up getting a visa. Just my opinion.

Thank you Susie and everyone on your answers.
I asked this because one guy from Kosovo had his interview in May this year and when I asked where did he translate high school diploma and the transcripts, he said that he didn't and he had only the originals in albanian and he got the visa for the whole family. I just wanted to know if this is an isolated case and the experience of others on US embassy in Skopje.
