NVC Filers - July 2014

[Amanda4964 202]

Hello all my VJ friends

Back from our wonderful holiday on Hamilton Island It was great to see Andy with the kids again. Shows me just how much we have all missed each other.

Everything was great until two nights ago when I knew NVC were back working from long weekend and then the old nerves and anxiety started again. Checking the phone as soon as I hear it buzz at night in case it is our turn!

Anyway, at Sydney airport at moment waiting to board flight to Adelaide.

Good to see all the case completes but am so frustrated for many of you that you haven't come as far as I thought you would.

Our AOS scanned June 3rd so hopefully hear something soon. Then wait again as IV scanned 20th June.

Meanwhile hubby leaves to fly back to New York on Sunday and we are back to our little life........

I guess the week is still young!

Glad to hear you have had a great trip. You should hear something very soon about your AOS and only a couple weeks until your IV. Not long now!

[Amanda4964 202]

Getting your assets together is a good plan.

And having your sister fill out the AOS is a good back up plan.

But, you were not checklisted for anything to do with your employment. And it is your husband that will have the interview, not you, --- meaning you shouldn't be asked about your employment again.

So far, I have not seen a sponsor checklisted twice on the AOS. They've already reviewed it and told you what the problem is.

Provided your current checklist is accepted, you should be good to go.

You'll know soon enough.

Thank you, that makes me feel better My gut tells me it's going to be ok, but I know it won't hurt to prepare for anything.

14 months later and still waiting...it is disheartening to see case completed for some waiting 6-7 months and our case seem to be in stuck mode. On the positive side, come August 10th will be TWO years and since it is obvious my interview will not be before that at least that means the IR1 instead of CR1.

At this point, we have had to respond to false checklists/issues that held up our case for two months and it has been six weeks since addressing all of the NVC requirements. Calling the NVC has only resulted in we have to wait as they are backlogged. Why on earth will they not process in order of acceptance or NOA1 date. I cannot believe what was explained as a 9mth process has mushroomed into a 14 month process. Hugs for all those on the long wait list with us since early 2013.

I don't blame you at all, it's not easy to see people behind you zipping to the finish line while you still languish in uncertainty. It's not fair and I wish we could do something to fix it. God bless you and I'll say a prayer in hopes that this will end for you soon.

[Soloenta 2,218]

I feel your pain as I approach 13 months. My poor famly in the US has been waiting so long for us to come home. And my poor family in Australia that know we are leaving, but don't know when so it is sort of a sadness that drags along day by day.

Being torn between 2 countries can be so difficult.

Oh my sounds horrible ((((((((((Amanda)))))))))) can't be easy for you either. Nothing in this process is easy, I wish they realized it (immigration that is).

[Soloenta 2,218]

Hello my friend! I missed you too! I did not have time to be here at all! I did not get a day off in 5 weeks now. Between work and the move to St Louis MO, I had a busy busy busy month!

Anyway, my wife's interview is today! I should hear her voice around 6 or 7 am this morning with the good news! I can't sleep right now!

I will report back as soon as I get news!

How is your case progressing? I wish good luck my friend!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh I'm praying all goes well and they take her passport and say you will get your Visa in two to three days.

I can imagine how busy you where and really so good to see you, everyone pretty much seems to be gone to the other thread.

I can't wait to hear the good news will check If I'm able to sleep hehee.

My case well, so far have been able to pay IV last night and it shows as paid so that's wonderful but still a long way to go for us. Going to go say a very special prayer right now for you and your wife. See you in a bit.

Forgot is Morocco a country that takes a long time to get an interview like Egypt and if I may, how long did it take to get an interview?

I got the GOOD NEWS this morning:

My wife was approved and was told to come back Friday to the US Consulat General in Casablanca to pick up her passport and the sealed envelope.

Thanks you everybody on VJ for the unconditional help and support.

I will add details about the interview as soon as she gets back home.

Thanks Soloenta, we got approved this morning.

for Morocco, the interviews are fast, usually couple weeks after CC. I hope things get better for Egypt! it is really not fair to you guys to have to suffer beyond USCIS and NVC processes! I'll keep you in my prayers!!!!!!!!

Thank you Our AOS fee changed to N/A somewhere around 6pm UK time yesterday, so hubby got on the phone with NVC, asked on the status of our checklisted AOS to be told we had Case Complete. If you AOS fee has changed you should call, if not sit tight, it should happen soon

I just got off the phone with NVC. 3 redials followed by 20 minutes on hold. Not bad. I spoke to Jean.

AOS and IV were scanned into the system on June 3rd. That is 3 business days after delivery and 25 business days ago.

Jean mentioned she could not see the DS-260. Since that was submitted 32 business days ago, she suggested I email the confirmation page to nvcenquiry@state.gov to enquire as to why it has not been processed. Should I do this? Don't they normally process the DS-260 along with the IV package?

Thanks.
