I called AVR this morning and it confirmed that the case is closed.

Still no SIF at payment portal. I guess it is still broken.

Congrats on the CC! SIF means nothing, forget about it; you got the news that means everything...the CC. Hope the interview date comes very soon.

You should be happy with your CC! Lots of people take weeks and weeks to get through NVC!

As far as I know, a CC stays a CC. I don't think I've ever seen anyone get problems AFTER a CC. I've seen it a few times after a SIF, but not with a CC. I think you're safe ;)

Actually, NavyK had his case reopened due to a double-sending of information. So it's rare, but possible.

Holding my nose and jumping off the cliff.. hope I don't hit any rocks in the water.

Ah, yes that's right, I saw that. Other than that case, I've never seen it.

Stop focusing on the negative. Be excited every time you call NVC and you'll get your case number before you know it.

I believe that yes, the IV package was reviewed and accepted. Now they're just waiting for the I-864, then you're done :)

Again, for the 6th time, I received a checklist cover letter. I was hoping that when I open my email this morning (PI time), I would have receive a case complete email from NVC, but all in vain. :crying:

The good news is, the 6th RFE states the same as what it was askin in the 5th RFE (just refer to my timeline at the signature below). :) NVC received our RFE response last October 13. How long will we still be waiting! I'm gettin a lil impatient!rawr! :bonk:
