Grats on paying bills! When did you get a case number? I'd like to update the spreadsheet.

I've updated my signature with all the new dates.

You do already have me on the sheet though.

Thanks Saylin!

Guys..we paid our AOS bill on 3rd March & were shown the IN PROCESS message until 4th. However post this we are getting SIF on the NVC payment portal since yesterday. Don't know what could have caused this!! We had asked for an expedite at NVC so don't know that may be the reason for this !! Any idea!!

Thanks for adding the signature! I wanted to update the CSC to TSC transfer spreadsheet, so I can update the statistics for receiving case numbers.

There have been a lot of people getting that fake SIF message. I'd just wait another day and see if it's still there. Call an operator up on Monday and inquire if you still can't log in.

Holy #######!! Almost 3 AM for me and just finished putting together all of the documentation that my wife will need at her interview on the 18th. She will have all originals plus a copy of all the originals as well as the copy's I have for myself here. I think I killed about 10 trees tonight. I'll get some sleep for a few hours and then go to the Post Office and send this Priority Overnight or whatever they call it.

We are going to Skype Saturday night my time, Sunday morning for her, and I will walk her through the paperwork that she will have to do. I am going to fill out the PDF's for her and email them so she will just basically have to sign them, except for Part 2 of the DS-230, that has to be signed in the presence of the interviewing officer.

I did not provide much evidence of "bona fide" marriage, having a child with her that will be at the interview should be sufficient enough. She also has a her Military Dependent ID Card since I'm a retired Marine. I did provide plane, train, and hotel receipts from my trip in October as well as all the Western Union receipts.

On Monday she will call the hospital in Bangkok to schedule her physical, I am having her use the same one she went to when we went through her K-1 Process, they also take my insurance, TriCare, so there should be no cost at all. Her Police certificate is ready for pick up on Monday so she will get that when she goes to Bangkok for her physical. She received her translated birth certificate a few days ago too.

It looks like we have all of our ducks in a row, she will be busy as hell the next two weeks. She has to take a 6 - 8 hr train ride to Bangkok this week then back home. The following week she will have to it again for her interview, I wished that I could be there right now to give her a hand.

The Bangkok Embassy will issue her the IR-1 two days after the interview, once she has that we'll get her flight booked. It won't be cheap since she insist on flying Thai Airways because it's an awesome airline and non-stop from Bangkok to Los Angeles, about 14 hrs.

I hope I have every in order and ready to go!!!

Be glad when this whole process is finally over!

I mailed everything via USPS Global express, cost $81 for 2lbs of documents. The soonest it will get there will be Thursday US time, cutting it close!!

Went over all the paper work with my wife last night and she signed the PDF's that I sent. We are crunched for time, especially since she is a 6 - 8 hr train ride from Bangkok. I sent this email to the Embassy last night:

Greetings,

My wife has her appoint scheduled for 18 March 2011 at 7 AM. We just learned of her appointment less than 48 hours ago and are thrilled that the expedite was approved. My wife required some additional documentation that she will need to send with the rest of her package prior to the interview. I sent what she needed via USPS Global Express Guaranteed and the soonest that she will have it will be 11 March 2011 Thailand time, one week before her appointment.

What is the latest that you can receive her Packet III and Packet IV documentation prior to the scheduled appointment?

We do not want to miss this appointment because of the delay in getting the documentation since we have been fighting with USCIS since November for an expedite due to my son being hospitalized in Surin numerous occasions for pneumonia.

Can you PLEASE call my wife or I rather than try to coordinate via email? This would be more efficient. My wife can be reached at 66 87 *** **** and I can be reached at 714 *** ****.

I want to get them back to the States ASAP so I can get my son to doctor for a complete physical to identify why he keeps getting sick.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Well, the Embassy called her a few hours ago and told her to send what she has now and the rest when she receives it. They are going to be accommodating to our situation.

She called the hospital and scheduled her physical for this Friday at 9AM. They have records of her last physical so that will be of assistance. The only caveat is that they will not use my insurance for her physical, we have to pay cash, ugh!! It sucks being strapped for $$ but it is what it is. She will take a trip to Bangkok on Thursday and go back home Saturday. While in Bangkok this week she will pick up her Police Check that is ready as of today.

Next Thursday she will be off to Bangkok again for her interview on Friday, I HOPE that they will give her passport back on Friday with the Visa stamp and all documentation rather than have her come back the following Mon or Tue.

We are planning on her and my son flying out of Bangkok on Thai Airways during the first week in April. Can't wait!!

Hope the rest of you get through NVC ASAP and have your Interviews scheduled quickly!! Being that you have your case number, you may be able to have your spouse get their physicals done now, rather than wait for the Embassy to receive your petitions. Check your respective Embassy website for details.

Good Luck!!

We're in catch 22 situation!! The NVC case status link doesn't work for us..says SIF! We had asked for an expedite & NVC seems to be waiting for Madras US Embassy! Madras Embassy says they are still working on our case. We had just paid the AOS fee on 3rd March, so not sure if we lost our $88 to this process !

Tried the NVC AVR, it says "NVC has completed the processing of this application & has forwarded it to Embassy or Consulate in Madras on March 4th". Don't know what that mean!

[SqdnGuns 21]

Tina, there is nothing NVC can do at this point if they have sent it to the Embassy. It sucks to be stuck in no mans land. Have you emailed the Embassy explaining the situation?
