So we got some news too. Sadly NVC are asking for the original birth and marriage certificates. Will be send today with DHL. So should be in NVC by tuesday or wednesday.

Does that mean that evertyhing else was totaly fine and once they get certificates, case will be completed? Or could they issue even more RFE's? And another question, do you know how long it takes NVC after receiving RFE docs to review them and take decission.

We are praying for april interview and hoping we can still make it...

Dear Magpius,

There is something that I really want to know....How did u get to know that they need the original birth and marriage certificates? We know, this is what we call RFE, but did u call them and they asked u that they r missing with the original copies? Well, How do we know that everything going alright?

My update for today is, NVC recieved my packet at 7:44am. Do u think, if i call tonight, I will get some info like, they have recieved it and putting into the system? Does the AVR changes here?

Once NVC receives your packet it takes them about 2 to 3 days to put into system. it wont hurt calling them, you never know they might already have it in system.

We called NVC and speaked to the operator. Operator immediately said that the packages were reviewed, but there are some missing documents. And then she explained what they need and how they should be send. We send the packages on tuesday feb 10, but it got to NVC on feb 12 thursday, so it took exactly a week for them to review.

You should call and speak to the operator basically every day and you'll soon find whats the status. Good luck!
