Called NVC got Invoice ID number but now they tell me our case is in AP. Anyone know how long it is likely to be there?

Now I have both LND number and Invoice ID number (and I have medical booked for Tuesday, all forms ready and police certificate in hand) do I fill in DS 260 on line now or wait till our case is transferred to London consulate?

Thanks in advance for any advice...... My head hurts! ?

I did some tiresome work on the USCIS site by changing the last 3 digits and there are a number of May filers who have been given RFEs between May 8th and May 16th. I think 3 or 4. More May filers a

It was good, super easy and fast.. You'll have no problem!

Did you have to pay any USCIS Immigration fee at the embassy?

And did you fill out form D-260?

And did you fill out form D-260?

No you pay the fee online before you go there. The only things you have to take to the embassy are your passport and the letter/email they sent you with the appointment although I didn't need that either. Everything else you have to send there once the embassy receives your stuff from NVC.

I checked the CEAC website just a few min ago and my case is already "in transit". Just two days after NVC received it....

This means NVC is processing fast and all of you will be right behind me :)

Received an e-mail today from Naples saying they're ready to schedule the interview...so I of course did a little dance in the office! :P We'll be completing the required forms tomorrow to get our interview date. It's a strange feeling knowing that this process is nearly complete! :D

Hey Ozgirl,

Hang in there! Think of the positive. Your RFE could have taken much longer to process but it didn't and you got your NOA2 soon after. Each of us soon will be with our fiances. Oh and guess what. I am also planning to leave Australia on Boxing day! Tickets are just so expensive though!

Yeah you're right. We have been lucky up until now. It's not like i'm waiting on case number to book medical as its done already, and still waiting on fiance and co-sponsor documents from USA. Got my police check back and I have no record, so i'm all clear there.

Not sure if Ill be travelling Boxing day yet. I need to save all the cash I can with fights. Leaving Boxing day will cost $5,500 for the 4 of us. 19th Jan is looking good at $4,500, but going to travel agent so they can do the hard work for me after i'm done with interview. My kids dont finish school till 20th Dec, so anytime cheap after that, we'll go. I use skyscanner atm to check flights.

How is your journey going so far?

You'll get there Ozgirl! You'll call the DoS or NVC one day asking for a case update and number one day not expecting it and you'll be notified that it's arrived. It always happens when you least expect it. :)

I called the department of state to see if my file reached NVC and was told that my file was sent to the embassy in Jamaica and returne to NVC and once they receive it back they will issue to case and invoice number. Confused, why not send it to NVC 1st them to the embassy to cut out an extra un-needed step!?!

Ozgirl, we are waiting too! It's been just over 4 weeks since our approval and NOTHING. Our lawyer called and emailed NVC and no response from them. I am feeling down, too. I know we gotta stay positive, but it's so hard isn't it when our fate is in someone else's hands.

On that note, will the USCIS website say when the file has been sent to the NVC? My status is still the same when we got our approval on August 28.
