The tracking website for my IV package is not working :angry:

Same thing happened when I sent the original I-130 package! I'd like to say what I think of the French express postal system but I'm pretty sure it would be violating the TOS :ranting:

You can check the AVR and see if it has been updated (probably not, but you have nothing to loose). As for the taxes, they will not expect to see 2011 returns until after April 15th.

NVC will not contact you when they receive anything.

You can call, and you can start next week to make sure your paperwork is received. But you might have to wait for several weeks before they can give you your case number. Since you have an attorney,

Well, if it makes you feel any better, today is a federal holiday in the US so if your package is over here, it's not moving at all until tomorrow. And despite knowing this, I still keep checking the payment portal to see if our next bill has been invoiced. :blush:

Well I don't have an update saying it left France, still shows the initial dispatched update in the city where I live... I hate those things, they give you a tracking tool to help you relax and see your shipment move to its destination, and then it never works, and you end up worrying to death.

It reminds me of that time when we had Colin's mother send his birth certificate via UPS (we needed it to get married), with an extra charge to have it delivered 2 business days later before 10:30 AM guaranteed, and the guy showed up with it at 3PM. And they never wanted to refund the extra money although they failed to provide the service we paid for... I just hate courrier companies.

I will be putting the IV application in the mail today on my lunch break! It will go out EMS so it should take 3 days and arrive on Thur/Fri at NVC.

My letter from the bank in Japan should arrive today or tomorrow and then I will mail the AOS package.

I decided not to even mention the UK police certificate because it might not be required. If we get a checklist, I will send it as soon as we receive it. My wife got confirmation From the UK police that they received the application on the 16th and we paid double for 2 day processing. We should receive it by the middle to end of next week.

My wife also called one of the hospitals that does medical checks and inquired about the vaccines required. She doesn't have records for them so they recommended a blood test to find out what she has. She stopped at her doctor's office on the way home from work and did that.

Oh and I sent in my passport renewal application to the embassy yesterday. It has nothing to do with the visa process but I got to check off another thing on my seemingly endless list of things to do list!

AOS showing as paid for me too.

Now let me click that little "Pay" link next to the IV bill!! Grumble. :angry:

You know that's tied into 'DS-3032 added to the casefile', right ?

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.
