Thanks all of you. I also hope you all get completion soon. I don't want to start feeling lonely again on the interview date wait list ;)

You know, the operators did not even give a hint when I called yesterday. All she said was call back next week. So if you call today and don't get a hint (final review, almost done, etc) from operators, don't get discouraged. Good luck :)

My husband always tells me that I am basket of infinite worries ;) I used to tell him, once our case gets approved at USCIS, I'll feel better. Then when our case got approved, I told him "I'll be relieved once the case gets to NVC, this would mean they didn't lose our file". Then, I told him, "I'll be worry-free when our case gets completed because we'll know that everything is in order"... On, and there were many many many "I'll be happy when..." in between these ;)

Congratulations!

It seems that worries are part of life, just have to learn how to deal with them as they come. Hopefully, this process will soon be off your shoulders and carry those things dear to you as a family unit. Wish you success and let us know what your feelings will be a night before and the day later the Visa interview.

Haha! My husband tells me the same thing. He said I worry and stress myself to death. Everything bothers me. I want everything to be perfect so we can be together sooner.

Anyway, I'm so happy for you and your husband. I may not know you personally, but we can all relate with what you're going through. I just hope our case goes smoothly as well. :star:

Champi..do you know how long it will take to get an interview date scheduled?

I called NVC this morning about it, and the lady was more confusing then ever. She said all the April dates are full. I asked her, "does that mean you no longer plan to schedule any more interviews in April?" She still didn't answer that, instead, she kept on saying "we don't know when your case will be scheduled, we've to send your case to India, blah blah blah". So I asked again, does this mean I'll have interview schduled in May for the month of June. Same answer, 'We don't know when...." In short, I didn't get anything out of her.. Her name was Shelly...

I'll keep everyone posted if I hear anything different or more..

I have one quick question, how long does it take for the IV bill to be generated after the acceptance of the DS-3032? Our DS-3032 was accepted yesterday. I'm waiting for the IV bill.

My IV bill was generated a day before AVR said DS-3032 was accepted. In my case, it was probably same day. Does the online system say "NOT INVOICED" or "NOT PAID" for you? If it says "NOT PAID" and you're able to pay, then you can go ahead and pay now since AVR says your DS-3032 was accepted.

Yeah, that is ashame about Shelly not knowing much. I wouldve called back and spoken to another operator.

Champi..do you know how long it will take to get an interview date scheduled?

I asked her, "does that mean you no longer plan to schedule any more interviews in April?"

It still says "NOT INVOICED." Hopefully it will be generated sometimes today or tomorrow. Thanks.
