What does this NVC message mean?

[rika60607 215]

Hi,

NVC just updated their automatic response.

Now they say

"NVC has received IV fee bill on 08/23/07 and will send further instructions within next few weeks. "

Sooo, I think it means they generated DS-230 package and are sending it to me this week?

Or I am too hopeful?

Or should I call and talk to a live person and get them to admit that DS-230 WILL be sent this week?

Thanks for your opinions!

Your bump was felt in Darwen Lancashire home of the missing link...

this message does not mean your 230 is generated but there is a 35% chance it was generated last night and a 65% chance it will be generated next monday..

call em now and ask if the ds-230 is on it's way to you yet - if they say yes then its generated

dont use the word generated - they dont like it

if not i bet you my monaco t shirt it will be by next tuesday

always call tuesday please see james' short cuts for explanation

if you do them be very accurate with them and do exactly what he says - top post!

oops sorry senior moment ! ITS MONDAY TODAY !!!!!

yes call em tomorrow bang on 20 seconds past 7.30am eastern and you could get through with a 2 minute wait !

otherwise it gets really busy later and they wont even connect to the auto system... but you need a person...

if they have the iv bill on the system wednesday its a good bet they will do it following monday

after wednesday it is not certain - yours was thursday ? bit of a toss of the coin... as I say 35% tomorrow

hooray i do feel useful....

Yep,

they received IV bill on Thursday. Auto message said nothing about it on Friday and then updated on Monday.

Are those guys doing overtime to compensate for the Labor day weekend?

I feel hopeful, MegDan's Timeline is ahead of mine exactly one week and her bill was also received on Thursday --> DS-230 generated on following Tuesday.

I can't say I am suffering in France (I don't ), but this process is driving me crazy, so I just want to be done done done with it!

ah hah ! I will bet you my flat cap and whippet it will NOT be done by tomorrow morning - when I said Wednesday I meant on the system - if you are only on the system today then I highly doubt it - of course you are going to call but mine was like yours and it takes 3 or 4 days to get on the system ----- then they need a few days to generate the ds-230

hope I am wrong but I reckon next tuesday- 8 days is your generation day...

go steady on the jambes de grenouilles - they are slippery characters

Today "NVC is expecting return of the biographic forms by the petitioner "

So then it means DS-230 was generated, right, RIGHT???!!!

*looking for reassurance here*

Give em a call but I would suspect 'yes'... just ask if the ds-230 'is on its way at the moment' - if she says its coming out to you 'this week' then you are home and dry....

i think it means 'yes' but check with em eh before you send james form if you are going to do that

let me know then I will give a big YES until then its a small yes ! We dont want any false hopes !!!!!

jeez their auto messages are weird

Yabadabadoo ! you did really well considering the payment only JUST got on file !

you dodged a whole week there !

many congrats !!!! their letters took almost 3 weeks to reach me here in the UK so I did james' and fired the 230 in same day...but its less worth it in the US

Alan.....

[rika60607 215]

Well,

I hope to get a hold of my lazy agent (when he wakes up in the US) and we'll see... My DS-230 signed and stapled with everything and with cover sheet dated 08-27-07 may be in his mailbox already - for further mailing to the NVC.

Thank you Alan!

Today life is good
