My huband amazes me. He already got his fingerprints and expects the new "improved" police certificate in a week. Wow.

It's good to have an amazing husband...I bet he thinks you're amazing too.

Maybe you or CHD can make a post in the Canadian forum to alert others about the correct PCC.

As most of you know...the things we learn here rarely help ourselves, but at least we can help others.

Congrats on your fast action, and keeping your case on track.

CHD, how's it coming with your replacement PCC?

If I recall, you had a little buffer time in your schedule (waiting for 2nd anniversary to get IR-1).

Remember, an RFE comes at the end of everything being reviewed. So at least you know everything else is OK.

From what I've seen, once the RFE has been sent back, Case Complete comes within a day or two.

Hoping the week brings great news for all of us.

I'm still not fully convinced that the fingerprint method is necessary for Canadians considering the number of people who have gone through NVC with regular police certs. If CHD calls NVC and talks with someone, it is possible that this RFE will go away.

And Shpat, you shouldn't say such things! I certainly can't imagine going through this process for someone who never amazes you.

LIng ling... is it cool to send my I864ez fed ex??

SURE, you can send via FedEx, I personally prefer USPS because it's part of the government.

I've had good luck with USPS until our last mailing which came in a day late, but it's been signed for at NVC, and I can get a refund on the Express Postage.

$16.50 isn't a lot of money, but it's the principle. Whatever you do, look over your package one more time, and make 2 copies of the entire package before you send it in.

That way, if they say something's missing, you'll have another package ready to go, and a copy to send to your spouse before the interview, just so they know everything that's in there, and are prepared to answer any questions about it at the interview.

did the cover letter, made copies and am sending original pay stubs and employement letter per the "short cuts" the reason for the Fedex is that is my second job and i get a good deal plus the store is right next to work where as I have no clue where the closest USPS is.

soooo going out today whooot!

Hey Shpat, you little whipper snapper...I should put you over my knee and give you a good paddling...but you'd probably like it too much :devil:

I understand where both of you are coming from...sure, it's a public forum, but most of us have either been here so long (or post so much) like you GOLD people,

that we consider it more like family sometimes. What family is perfect? What family doesn't make jokes? What family doesn't love their spouses?
