Today I received an email response from the Ombudsman's office to my inquiry sent on 5/22/13. That is a 48 days response time for anyone who decides to contact the Ombudsman's office.

The email said that USCIS records show our petition was forwarded to NVC on 5/29, which is what I was able to find out that day by persistently calling ISRs and being lucky to talk to one who was willing to share that information.

If the DS-3032 still isn't accepted by Thursday, then I'd suggest following the tip in post 2 ;)

Today i Received checklist for DS-230. USPS delivered my application on june 17th 2013. Why they send me checklist after 16 business days. THanks

Do you mean your IV package was delivered on June 17th? And you got a checklist requesting the DS-230?

If yes to the above two questions, someone needs to refer back to the FAQ in post 2. This is indicative of VERY good news ;)

Why they send me checklist after 16 business days.

Because there's a queue.

Actually there are 4 queues.

Any idea what they are? anyone?

Please can some one help me with one question regarding NVC affidavit of support filing. I want to know that my husband is sponsoring me and also including income of hs brother as a house hold member who also lives at the same house via filing i 864A. The instructions on the form tell that you need to submit evidence for relationship and same residence. they will submit birth certificate for evidence.. but how are they going to provide evidence for same residence? can some help me with this?

2 birth certificates showing the same parent.


Is this correct??

no. checklist letter responses and the wait thereof are optional queues.
