Yes, AOS I-864 for each parent. Now, you will have to wait for the NVC number and Invoice Identification number to be assigned, before you can do anything else, it takes 2-8 weeks. You can start call

Yes, same here, that was good to know. On to the next step...

The petitions for parents are separate, though, and only one parent is listed on each petition. My guess would be multiple persons applies to the beneficiary with dependents, i.e. IR-1/2 or K-3/4. AO

Just called NVC and still no case # and invoice # but they did told me both case are in the building since Mar 4, 2014. They kept saying 30 business days excluding weekend, holiday and whatever they can come up. So i guess i need to wait until the 16th of April to be 30 days.

Anyone got it before the 30 days?

You will have to call them directly to confirm that they have received your case. Your NOA2 will say 30 days but it could be less for them to receive it. It does take them time to input it into their system and assign a new case number.

Congrats!!!!!!!!! Woooohoooo!!!!

Congratulations Bryn&allen!!!

Keran, we have the same schedule dates for our moms. Good luck to them!!!

her medical experience was horrifying..since her BP has been elevated chronically, they made her get a medical certificates, and come back twice, and for the 3rd time, they wanted another medical certificate for the anti depressant medicine she takes "as needed" for anxiety... to top that, a psychological evaluation with a psychiatrist. She finally finished her medical yesterday, in Jesus name!
