For laughs and giggles I called NVC AVR five minutes ago. The system stated that the NVC has forwarded our case to the embassy on March 19. This is completely wrong.

In reality:

Case left NVC Thursday March 11

Case held over weekend

Case delivered to embassy Monday March 15

Email for interview received Monday March 15.

It seems both the nvc operator and avr are not up to date. The most accurate system has been the LIF and email from nvc.

I THINK THE DATE GIVEN ON THE AVR IS THE DATE THAT THE EMBASSY CONFIRMS RECEIPT ( not sending ) OF THE package SENT FROM NVC.

SPSguy - thanks for confirming this. I guess we're not done with NVC just yet:(

I did everything correct like you. But they RFEd me because they wanted to see a copy of my J1 visa that proves I don't have the 2HRR. I thought they could check that on their own system, but turns out they can't (or want).

I hope you don't get any rfes but I think even when we send everything 100% complete, there is no way we can be sure we are safe. :blink:

Very frustrating! :wacko:
