IR-5 Timeline

[Collie 122]

My moms case too it had dominican republic not manila. She never went there. It prolonged my wait if i didnt catch it when it was assigned.

Did they email you the invoice before the case number was changed over?

[luck-e and Kookie 0]

Yes thay still did

[kerran 4]

They are fixing it but said it could be up to 30 days before it is changed. She said that I could still go ahead with processing and would still be invoiced in a few days for the AOS, but who knows if that's true or not..

Oh boy. That sucks!

Mom's case forwarded to embassy today so no more calls to NVC for her case.

[OKflyboy 35]

You cannot call NVC for expedite service. Like you already thought, you have to have a medical or life-threatening condition (like the typhoon in the Philippines) and proof of it to request that service. This you have to submit to NVC by email. I got a letter from my doctor with my medical problems and why I need my mother here ASAP.

OK thanks!

[kerran 4]

OK thanks!

No problem!

[bryn&ellen 13]

I will but I'm waiting for the proof by mail or email. I don't trust NVC. lol

Can you let me know if the mail or email says about the medical and date of interview? I'm just really excited . Thank you

[Gumbolette 58]

ok, BUMMER! I got an RFE!!!!

In Part 6. Sponsor's Income and Employment, please correct the following...
[x] Items 13.a.1. The income you enter must match the total (gross) income reported on your most recent Federal
income tax return. If you filed Form 1040EZ, use the adjusted gross income instead.

It does mean my Total Gross income, and not the Adjusted Income right?

And Can I scanned the Affidavit of support and just send it back to the Supervisor email?

[mozplay 29]

I have an early September 2013 filing date for my parents and yesterday and today I got two updates: the first that the files were going to be transferred to another office for processing and the second that they were transferred to my local office for processing. I know from reading all of your timelines that things should start moving soon(ish) but I an still a little muddled on the next steps. I'll spend some time reading through the posts and looking up others' experiences, but this is just an apology in advance for any asinine questions that I may ask, lol.

I already sent the civil documents Feb 14 and they received it the 18th. What is this????

[jasmine05 6]

I printed the W-2s from my husband's company website so I'm not sure if that counts as original but they accepted it. I used transcripts that I photocopied from the ones IRS sent. I don't think it matters whether those things are photocopied or not.

Legal docs such as birth certificate, marriage certificate, etc. are the ones that need to be original.

Did they fix it?

thanks for letting me know kerran

[Collie 122]

Yes thay still did

Could you still actually pay the aos invoice and submit your paperwork?

[Peace500 28]

In Transit

Immigrant Visa Case Number: KNG2013857026

Your case is in transit to the Consular Section. Your interview date was provided to you by the National Visa Center.

Still waiting for correspondence from NVC. I called and they told me they no longer have the case and the interview will be set by Kingston US Embassy.

ATTN: DR

When I got the bar code sheets I got two different address also but since I had no intention of paying two shipping fees I got two yellow envelopes wrote the addresses according to the barcode sheets for each then I put them both in one USPS express mail envelope and sent them to the address with ATTN: DR. They are in the same building but different suites so I'm sure someone can walk it over to the other suite. I did this twice and had no issue.
