Recent I-130 Approvals (Nov. /Dec.) - NVC Process

[cmnb 0]

I am a classic example of Murphy's law....

We got a ref on our AOS ...... NVC wanted the 2008 W2, but my hubby is positive that he had sent it with the package......

Anyways we are going to send it again......

Hard Luck...But I am learning to live with it.......

Aman,

Did you file taxes for 2008 already? I have not yet filled my taxes for 2008 and NVC told me that I could send in 2007, 2006 & 2005 tax transcript.

Should I send 2008 W2?

I am planning to send following along with my AOS package:

• Tax Transcript from 2007, 2006 & 2005
• W2's from 2007, 2006 & 2005
• 1040 form all pages from 2007
• All pay stubs from 2008
• Employment letter from employer

mindmaster, this is more than enough! you should be fine with these documents.

Aman - I am surprised you have been asked for 2008 W2. they have clearly mentioned that until april 15, they will accept the stuff from 2007 and you do not have to provide 2008 docs.

by the way, where is DesiMan...i am curious to see what is going on with his case...i hope he is doing fine..

Thanks cmnb. Any progress on your interview date?

not yet, will find out the date next month (hopefully).

Hi Aman,

I am currently the choice of agent for my wife and have paid the fees and gotten the barcode cover sheets. I realize i'm just a few days behind you in the NVC steps and was hoping to run something by you...

After you paid your AOS and IV bills online, did you or your husband get a package in the mail or did you just follow the instructions on the NVC website to submit the I864 and DS3032.

With the DS3032, did you end up send the original supporting docs (birth cert, marriage cert, etc) or just photocopies to the NVC?

I am just a bit confused if we should wait for something in the mail because I heard the procedure for docs submission for New Delhi embassy may be different.

According to the New Delhi embassy website, you can sbmit the originals at VFS office -- http://newdelhi.usembassy.gov/packet4chlst.html)

Just a little concerned about sending something in before we should and taking the risk of sending it via Mail instead of taking care of it in person.

Also, on the AOS, you mentioned you received the RFE -- did you put in 2008 income on line 23 or 2007. Since i haven't received my W2 yet it makes it difficult to fill in in line 25 with 2008 income. I am just trying to avoid any potential issues.

I'd greatly appreciate your insight.

Many thanks for your help.

best,

ranjeet

Hi,

Once the NVC schedules an interview. How long does it usually take for them to send the case to the Consulate. Do they sent them out at the same time regardless of the date the interview is actually scheduled?

Thanks

We actually had a super goof up....Hubby to be on safer side sent his W2.....so the NVC logic is if you have the W2...please send your Tax returns for the year....So thats the Ref.....and he is busy filling his tax return and getting the docs........

SO I guess....DON'T SEND YOUR W2 if you HAVE NOT FILLED YOUR TAX RETURN

HTH

CMNB

Aman,

Thanks a million for replying to my post. I hope NVC will complete our case in few weeks and we will get an interview date soon.

Lot of people going to Delhi Embassay are being denied visa and they are given 221g. Besides providing marriage photos, marriage invitation card, e-mail correspondence, trips to India what else can we provide to prove our legitimate marriage? I use raza.com to call my wife daily but the calling card does not keep track of called numbers.

Denials are very rare for the CR1 visa types, so don't worry too much. Just make sure that you give them no reason to doubt your relationship. Maintain a happy and light attitude while in the interview process.

i called nvc reg my Ds230 packate. I asked her specifically if there was an RFE and that i wanted an update on my DS230 packet. The operator said that your case will be completed in few days. I don't know what that means.

By the way, I am planning to accompany my husband to his interview at new delhi embassy. It will be tough with a full time job and college. But, I think i will loose my mind if there are any more delays.

Meet,

Please fill in your timeline so that we could get a feel about your case progress. My advise is keep calling NVC untill you get a nice person to talk to otherwise just say thank you and hang up. And by the way why do you think there would be a RFE?

mindmaster - my case was completed after they had scheduled the feb interviews so i guess i have to wait for the march interview. they say that it is scheduled during the second week of every month. so just a few more days before we find out. hopefully next week we should have a date.
