Finally! We got our SIF today. I'm so happy and I'm pretty sure my wife will be happy to hear this good news too! Thank you Lord! I hope we can still make it for September interview. My wife medical exam is only good for 3 months per SLEC and now counting since Aug 8... My wife wrote October 2011 for her estimated departure. I guess, that why her medical results is only good for 3 months?

Sorry for my ignorance here, but... what does "sign in failure" mean? I mean, you fail to sign in to do your stuff, so that means it's not in the system. What's all the congratulations about?

Congrats!

reg.ula.tion.me.ooow.2011 // tomcat.fight

to do list:
file i-130, petition for alien relative
get immigrant visa
get ssn card and green card
get employment authorization - not required
file I-751, petition to remove the conditions of residence (before 2nd year expires upon entry)
become a US citizen


Thank you Visajourney!

It means that one do not need to have a login with NVC payment portal, as all the documents were found to be alright and the case is complete and the interview date will be schedule in a few days time.

Sometimes, it could be a false sign in failure due to system being down or .... Once you are in the NVC process, you will know which is what looking at the timelines.
