CR1 Case Complete.

[Idinh 0]

My wife's CR1 is now case complete at NVC since 10/30.

So what happens next and when?

[dalegg 143]

Don't they send it to the consulate now?

Congratulations and yes your wife's paperwork will be forwarded to the embassy. I am not sure but some embassies schedule their interviews (which was our case) and they sent out a packet to my husband for his medical and police certificates. Once he completed them and resubmitted them to the embassy they scheduled his interview. Interviews do take some time as well so good luck on the remainder of your journey.

How long is the wait for the NVC to send the case to the US Embassy?

[chuckandkim 0]

Two to three weeks.... if NVC says they sent already...

Ok so the case finally left NVC 11/08.

So does the Embassy inform when they receive the case etc? And if so, who do they inform?

HCMC will not inform anyone.

USC and Beneficiary will need to call/email for this information.

HCMC will send Pack3 when it's ready to Beneficiary. This may take a few weeks. Quicker if Beneficiary stops by HCMC and pick-up in person.

I am doing the CR1/IR1. I thought packet 3 step was already taken care of with NVC? Or is there an additional step?

Hi,

So what happens or happened when HCMC recieved your case?

It takes some time for them to actually process the case after they receive it. Usually a couple months.

Once they do process the case and set an interview date, they will mail packet 4 to your wife.

Thanks! Do you remember what was in packet 4. Are the instructions in Vietnamese or English?

The instruction is in both Vietnamese and American but your wife has to write English in the forms and speak English with the CO in the interview.

Is my wife really required to speak in English to the CO? Her English is kinda limited.

A translator will be present.
