I can't wait to see them *super excited*

Is that email in response to the docs you sent today or earlier ones? And yes, that is a VERY GOOD step

The email was in response to today's docs...it quoted my message from this morning (I checked that lol). I'm so relieved that's a good thing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *finally remembers how to breathe*

Call them tonight, if they don't have a checklist or say they were approved, call tomorrow morning. I guarantee your AOS will be approved by then.

I called the next day after I got that email (i got mine late at night) and the next morning they told me about the stupid checklist.

OK. I'll call at about 8 tonight. Our AOS was straightforward, there should be NOTHING in it to cause a checklist. I mean really...come on now... lol

Ya, you'll be fine. The checklist I got was stupid.

Once a supervisor got a hold of the whole thing, she said that yes, my I-864 was filled out wrong (marking employed as a student) but that shouldn't have generated a checklist since I had 0.00 for income and included tax transcripts for 2011. She said as soon as the person saw I had 0.00 for current income, they should have went straight to the joint sponsors paperwork. And their stuff was fine. She apologized for the confusion and delay and said she'd fix everything right away. (8:30am)

At 12:30 I came home to find the case complete email, it was sent at 11:27am.

Oh that's awesome! Good to know the supervisors can sometimes keep the monkeys in line...

So i just asked my lawyer if we would be affected by the new visa fees and she said no. We dont even have case number why wouldnt the new fees apply to us? Is she right?

Your lawyer is wrong. NVC is currently holding all IV invoices until April 13th. They'll then "release" them with the new, lower fee.

By the time you have a case number, submit the DS-261 and have it approved, it'll be after the 13th, so your IV invoice will be for $305.

I have to wonder now, does your lawyer even know about EP and online forms for Mexico cases?

I really hope she does. Maybe she misunderstood what I was asking.

If she didn't misunderstand you, I'd suggest verifying everything here first. Sounds like this might be another uninformed lawyer...

This is just my personal opinion but I find pretty patethic that a so called "Lawyer" who is suppossed to know the ins and outs of this process, in fact, is not informed of how something so basic as new fees could affect the "pocket" of one of his/her clients. Oh Lord! Money Money Money! It's all about the Money!

Maybe the lawyer knows about the fees, but just wants $404 from the petitioner and keep the $99 difference when she only pays $305 to NVC...
