Congrats! It's another big step in the right direction

For those still waiting, yes, we did send our DS-3032 email right after we got our case number, before we had been billed for the I-864, and it was accepted.

Still awaiting IV bill here, but hopefully it will be done by tomorrow.

Ugh. When I checked my e-mail this morning, there was a message from the NVC. I'm not sure what to make of it.

The subject line reads [NVC case #] checklist cover page.pdf

STK2012etc etc

I mailed my IV package to the NVC on Saturday June 16. I was told it would take 4-6 business days for it to reach the NVC. Now I'm a little nervous I have done something wrong. I used a different cover page in the package I mailed. I got that cover page from an e-mail titled U.S. DoS - IV Application Cover Page for Case STK2012blablabla. Is that OK? Will I have to send in new documents? Or simply just a new cover page? I get so confused by all these e-mails. Life was so much easier when we were just waiting for the CSC to approve our application and forward it to the NVC. Today's also my last day of work and I'm totally stressing/flipping out over these things. UGH!

[JNEKG 4]

Don't stress. It's a false checklist and it most likely means you AOS package has been accepted. Don't worry about it. No action needed.

[Mr. Borkström 63]

Thanks a bunch!

Why do they send out false checklists?

[reginakrys 33]

Thanks a bunch!

Why do they send out false checklists?

They just do that when they get to one package before the other - which is almost always. They don't even bother to see if the package they ask for in the checklist is in their building. Even in our case, we sent the AOS and IV packages together, and we still got a false checklist.

[JNEKG 4]

Thanks a bunch!

Why do they send out false checklists?

You're welcome.

Like reginakrys said, they don't even check to see if the IV package is in the building. This happened to us also and we sent the packages together.

The good news is if everything is ok with your IV package u won't be far away from case closed.

Hang in there, nothing to stress about.

[Mr. Borkström 63]

I guess that kind of makes sense.

Anywho, I really appreciate it. This combination of waiting and then all of a sudden it feels like a million things happen at once is torture.

Did you already pay the IV bill?

After you pay the IV bill you print the BarCoded sheet from the payment portal. You're suppose to pay the Bill then submitt the packet.
