Is this an NVC RFE?

I received an email today with this statement:

We have reviewed the documents which you submitted in support of an application for an immigrant
visa. Please review the information listed under each applicant's name and provide any documents
which are indicated as missing or need additional information. You must submit the required
information. Failure to provide the requested information will delay your immigrant visa interview.

______CORRESPONDENCE INSTRUCTIONS:_________________________________
When responding to the National Visa Center, please include the bar code sheet that came with this
letter. Failure to include the bar code sheet may cause a delay in the processing of your case. The bar
code sheet should be placed on top of all documents being submitted for this case and mailed to the
address provided.


______1 - IMMIGRANT VISA APPLICATION PART 1:_______________________
The National Visa Center is waiting for an Immigrant Visa Application to be submitted for this case.
The Principal Applicant and any other Applicants who will be accompanying him or her to the United
States must now download and complete an Immigrant Visa Application; please visit the following
website for instructions:
http://immigrantvisas.state.gov (click on the link for "submit Visa application and civil documents")
Please submit the Immigrant Visa Application form(s) and required supporting documents for each
Applicant in one package to the National Visa Center; sending this information separately will delay
your visa.

Now, I sent the AOS package first, it was received on 6/18. The DS230 (IV) package was sent and received on the 24th. I am positive that I included everything in the DS230 package; I checked it like 10 times before sending it. Everything was held with paper clips and binder clips. Nothing was loose.

I called the NVC, and the representative said that the letter I received was nothing to worry about, and that it just meant that they had looked at my AOS package. He said that this meant that my IV package still had not been looked at, and that this letter was requesting the IV package to be sent.

I do not want to have any additional delays...does anybody have any other thoughts on this?

Also...I didn't make any photocopies of my AOS or IV packages...would that be a problem during interview time?

Yes, I had the same thing because I sent my AOS package first. They just have not reviewed the IV package yet. They took 14 days from the date I sent mine to review it. Nothing to worry about.

As far as the photocopies they are not necessary for the interview but you should have sent them a photocopy of everything in the IV package as well as the original.

I did send photocopies with the originals in the IV package, I just didn't keep any copies for myself. In hindsight, I should have done so.

Thanks for the response, I was panicking! So did you receive another email a few days later stating that the IV package was reviewed?

As long as you sent them photocopies you are good. You will get the original documents back.

False checklist.. Unless they ask for something specifically it simply means they reviewed the AOS.

[Shpresa 5]

Yes, that is an RFE just stating they don't have the IV package yet because they did not review it yet. If you had anything missing or any mistakes on the AOS it would have also been on that email.

Woops sorry I thought that was a question.

yah its a false checklist... expect case complete tomorw or monday... call nvc coz mine my iv packet was reviewed 16business day.... i sent my iv last june 17 and i call last july 8 my case was completed...

Never could understand why ppl do not make copies of everything they send

to USCIS & just put the date sent, (it seem so easy since they whine that's its

a stressful process) this would allow them to have their own complete copy of

file at home to check back on eben prior to interviews
