For Chennai VFS, you can get away with paying the Rs. 387. You may also submit the medical if you so wish.

What I always recommend is calling the local VFS and asking them what they need to be submitted prior to interview day and when. That's what I did with the Calcutta office. They told me the list of things required and the time window I had to submit that. Easier that way since the requirements are region specific. Melody went through Delhi recently so she might have a better idea what they need. Usually, it's photographs, DS230, medical, photocopy of BC, MC, PCC, medical, photocopy of every page of the passport, the medical and the courier fee.

Our Choice of Agent was accepted per email which means we could now pay the IV bill.

Shoud we wait till the AoS bill shows as paid before we do that or wait entirely until we recieve another email from them asking us to pay the IV bill?

Alles wird gut und wenn es noch nicht gut ist, ist es noch nicht vorbei.

If your IV bill is available to be paid, then go ahead and pay it.

Once your AOS bill clears, send your packet in.

You've got to be next Ally, we're all hoping for you. I keep checking back here thinking they have to give you an interview date soon.

Also, they really need to give Aneudy a date as well. He's been camped out in NVC for a long time.

Still waiting for the date. Just called again.

If they also give dates the 4th week of the month, isn't that next week?

when i called an NVC operator they told me to wait until i got the email. but i think it doesn't matter if you pay it now or wait for the email.

it has been taking only about 1 day for it to get to a PAID status on average so it won't hurt to wait. but anything is probably okay! :thumbs:

Yes, but those will be for August.

At this point, I don't care if it's August just please tell us something so we can get on with our lives. I can't handle this waiting and not knowing. I like to have things planned and I need to ask for time off work.

Hello all.

Today i received very heart breaking news from congressional unit.

For ppl who dont know.. here is my most unlucky timeline.

sent i 130 august 28th 2009

NOA 1 sept 2nd.

RFE issued 2/25/2010 >> proof of bona fide marriage and tax returns and to submit I 846 to uscis. ( wonder why I 864???)

RFE sent 5/01/2010.

I went to my congresswoman's office on june 2nd and asked them to see whats going on, and today i got answer back from USCIS thru congressional unit.

it says.

USCIS record shows an RFE was sent on 2/25/2010. Responce to the RFE was received 5/3/2010. The processing of the case has been delayed. A check of our records establishes that the above case is not yet ready for a decision. UNTIL THE REQUIRED INVESTIGATION OF UR CONSTITUENTS BACKGROUND IS CCOMPLETED. we can not move forward on this case.we will make every effort to make decision on this case as soon as the investigation is completed.

IF YOUR CONSTITUENT DOES NOT RECEIVE DECISION OR OTHER NOTICE OF ACTION FROM US WITHIN 6 MONTHS OF THIS E MAIL, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT US AGAIN.

now WTH should i make out of this?

IF MY BACK GROUND CHECK WAS NEVER COMPLETED THEN HOW AND WHY SOMEONE worked on my case in feb 2010??? and then instead of making decision he issued me RFE. i dont think they touch ur file until back ground checks are completed. i am in a shock.

i am really down.

During my citizenship my back ground check was pending for more than 3 years. until i filed lawsuit against USCIS in federal court. Writ of Mandamus.

and my checks were completed before the hearing date, in one month.

BY the way for I 130 petition what kind of background checks we are talking about????

and as all of you know here... I 130 cases sometimes get approved in less then a month for some, but usualy 3 months.

Does USCIS picks random cases for these checks???? OR if these checks are for everyone then how come i dont see atleast ONE member whos petition is ddelayed like mine?????? whats going on with my case?

and as for my marriage... I have a lil girl who was born last year and i went back home in january 2010 to get her citizenship paperwork thru consulate, and everything went fine. she has CRBA and US passport. I even sent in my daughters paperwork along my RFE to prove bonafide marriage.

I think i should abandoned my US residency and move back home with my wife and daughter. uscis has made me look 20 years older than i am.
