CSC to TSC to NVC: the Saga continues

[xelance 31]

thank you tina for all of the info, I truly appreciate it!

One short question, have you all sent to NVC the AOS plus one copy and DS 230 plus one copy? or only one of each.

One short question, have you all sent to NVC the AOS plus one copy and DS 230 plus one copy? or only one of each.

It should be only 1 copy each of AOS & DS-230. During the interview the beneficiary can carry a copy of these, just to be on a safer side.

So, I got kind of impatient & called up the US Counsulate(Madras) to know the further processing on our case. They told me that they have only recieved the electronic format of our case & the paperwork should arrive in 2-3 days & they can onlu let me know only after that. However what surprised me was the fact that, they told me that NVC will schedule our appointment & we need to send the paper work to them. Which is totally contradictory to what NVC had told me!!

And why should NVC send our case to the Counsulate if they had to do the rest of the process!! Ahh!!

So this means :

AOS file + 1 copy of all AOS(NVC)

Second AOS copy to the interview

DS-230 + 1 copy of all DS-230(NVC)

Second DS-230 copy to the interview

I got it wright?

After IV payment will show payed, and after documents will be sent to NVC we will ask an expedite based on what you asked. Hope that this will work for us to.

Yep. You're right!

DS-230 + original/certified civil docs to be sent to NVC

Did you ask for an expedite? I really doubt they would do it without asking, regardless of what the Alert posted on USCIS website said.

I asked... and even threw in the "active duty military" card too.... NADA !!!

Thanks a lot Tina.Benoy, and best of luck in Madras

Is that the best time to ask for expedite?

Did you ask on the phone? I have tried but the operator said they don't do expedites!

But maybe email is the charm

I sent email to SUPERVISOR. I didn't put Sue though... I wonder if that makes a big difference ROFL

Who reads your email probably makes a big difference and how it is worded and

what kind of mood she/he is! And the phase of moon etc

ER97SA, you can ask for an expedite at any stage of the VISA process(USCIS/NVC/Embassy). In our case, we tried it staright after we got the NVC case number. Now that NVC & the US Counsulate are giving us contradictory information on the next steps, I'm not sure how this will go forward at this point. Well, hoping for the best. We'll have to wait until we get any further notification either from NVC or Counsulate.

Well, our robot changed and now it says "NVC has reviewed your package of documents and found information missing or incomplete, sent you mail bla-bla-bla" . We havent got any e-mails yet. Before it was "A package of information and documents was generating...". I am sad
