NVC Filers - June 2013

[NikLR 13,227]

You and me both. If we were paid by the hour by VJ lets see i am literally here 20/7. I so need a life (or a man).

I'd rather have a life than a man if it came down to having to choose. But having both is handy!

[NikLR 13,227]

Paid AOS and now fourth payment has been generated...... Should I send AOS packet as didn't get their email to send that...????

After payment after how long they take to send email to send packets...???

Thank you in advance...

Do you mean the IV invoice? It's not fourth - it's I.V. as in Immigrant Visa

Send the AOS if the payment has cleared your bank. They will not send you emails to send them packages.

JennyWhiteley, I wanted to apologize if my concurring with Saylin contributed to your feeling singled out. When I read her post,I thought she was referring to the multitude of posts across the VJ site lately where the OP's are stressing out from not having an NOA2 after 2 or 3 months. I've been on the site for years (yes, I've made waiting comments myself, guilty as charged), however, years ago, everything took longer (still does for some countries). We are all stuck in this government hole, and waiting is the name of the game for all of us.

Anyway, good luck!

Thanks very much I do realise that the posts were not personally targeted at me obviously, but as they were in response to, and quoted my direct message it did feel as though I was being singled out for making one upset comment and then getting all of the anger about all of the posts back at me. I really appreciate your comment though, thank you very much I'm usually much more laid back than this but I'm obviously just as stressed as everyone else and so I took everything a little personally

Thanks again!

Just to update everyone, I paid my AOS bill on Thursday and it was taken out our account in Saturday morning so we sent off the completed AOS packet on Saturday, yay!! now we just need to send of the IV packet, but I do have a lovely treat in 4 days, I get to see my husband after 5 months away!! It's ridiculous to think I've not seen him for longer than the couple of months we had together after we got married! Not how I imagined my first year if marriage, but I did sign up for the hard times as well as the good good luck for the week ahead everyone!!

NVC doesn't email you saying you can send packages...

Yay for progress! And wow, 5 months?! Enjoy your time together And yeah 9 months of my first year of marriage was spent apart. Definitely not the way I had imagined it either...

Alright, I'll stay just for you

But if I left/took a break, not sure what I'd do with all my time. And my email inbox would be so empty as most emails I get are from VJ

Thanks!! Yeah, 5 months without seeing him, and before that it was 24 hours together while on honeymoon, it's felt really weird not being with him for all this time! When I miss him I just pretend he is at a friends house or at the pub we are meeting in Faro, Portugal, because we don't want to risk either of us being turned away at the others border because if "overstay" risks! good excuse for a lovely holiday 9 months must have been so hard, thanks for helping us all out! thanks!!

Enjoy your vacay with your hubs. Be happy that you're almost done! Most people are not at the NVC stage when you are. You've had a pretty quick journey so far.

At least you had a honeymoon. Three years later and we still haven't had one

And pretending he's at his friend's house is a really good way to think about it!

[Jeisson&Ellie 2]

Hopefully this week we'll get case complete! Well it's been 5 months since I haven't seen my hubby and this week I'll be at Colombia, can't wait!! So excited to see him and be with him!!

Once again guys, sorry for not updating my signature timeline, I just haven't been able to get to a computer, everything has been through the iPad or my cell phone. But I did send off my IV packet and all I'm waiting for is for case complete!!

Good luck to everyone!!

Our IV bill was invoiced on Friday afternoon. We paid this morning and it is in process. Only need to send DS-260 and supporting documents. Hope everything will be fine and I can go on end of Aug.

Added, thanks as always for these!

July thread is now up: http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/439000-nvc-filers-july-2013/

Let's all [slowly] migrate over there...

[JennyWhiteley 2]

Does anyone know what the latest dates being reviewed are for the new I-864, first time sending? I'm just wondering how much they have caught up!! Thanks

[Olakunle39 11]

That's it. I'm not calling NVC again. Just gonna wait for my case complete email. Just called to see if they had started looking at our corrected AOS and the rep said "you have to wait 20 business days" (fair enough), then I asked "has it been recieved or put onto your system yet?" - and she raised her voice and repeated YOU HAVE TO WAIT 20 BUSINESS DAYS MA'AM".

Grrrr. So bloody rude. Some of the reps are so great and polite. I'm just stressed and miss my hubby, don't need her attitude

Rant over.

I completely understand how you feel about NVC. I feel like this if you can't be polite at a job that clearly deals with customers then leave. Go be a janitor or something. Its already stressful waiting to hear something and then to get yelled at for asking a simple question will make any person blood boil.
