Is it normal to get a checklist after case complete?

I remember that happened to a couple of folks from June and July NVC and Interview threads. In most of those cases, it was related to a second checklist for AOS and they were asked to take the corrected one to the interview, so their cases were still completed. Why? Did you receive a checklist after CC? If yes, i would suggest that u call NVC for further directions. Good luck!

I got a checklist today which I'm pretty sure is false.

Our IV Packet was delivered on July 16 and when I called the NVC earlier this week they said they have it and it's being reviewed. So is it OK that I don't call the NVC and just ignore this? The instructions it gave are:

______1 - IMMIGRANT VISA APPLICATION PART 1:_______________________
The National Visa Center is waiting for an Immigrant Visa Application to be submitted for this case.
The Principal Applicant and any other Applicants who will be accompanying him or her to the United
States must now download and complete an Immigrant Visa Application; please visit the following

http://immigrantvisas.state.gov (click on the link for "submit Visa application and civil documents")
Please submit the Immigrant Visa Application form(s) and required supporting documents for each
Applicant in one package to the National Visa Center; sending this information separately will delay
your visa.

Looks like a false checklist based on them reviewing (and accepting) your AOS package. It's always a good idea to call up and confirm though. Is there a reason why you don't want to call NVC?

I figured if it's a false checklist then no reason to call...but I might as well. The last time I spoke to them on Monday they said both our AOS and IV were in review. But now that you mention this could have been generated as a result of the AOS being approved it would be good to get confirmation of that.

Just called and got confirmation that it was false. They said they finished reviewing the AOS and it's approved, but the IV is still in the 20 business day review period.

Received a checklist today. At least the nice Rep on Monday was correct in saying that my paperwork was being reviewed. They are asking for the IV and a revised I864EZ. I left the Domicile box blank. I think its under section 3. Here I was worried about the few hundred I was off on the income section which was not caught BUT I did something so lame as not type USA. I'll overnight entire form tomorrow. Looks like I set our application back. Double fail. Check those forms!!

Im so glad I listened to sound advice (thanks saylin) and waited for the checklist.

Hello :)

I sent my AOS checklist on the 5th of july and I just got a case complete on the 1st of August goofy.gif

However they tell us that even if we can get an interview scheduled, the file is still not filed properly and I need to bring another i-864 at the embassy.

Here's the checklist :

In Part 1. Basis for Filing Affidavit of Support, please correct the following...
[x] Item 1. You must enter your full name in the box.
----> This I understand, my sponsor didn't write his full name including middle names
In Part 2. Information on the Principal Immigrant, please correct the following...
[x] Items 1.a. through 1.c. You must enter the principal applicant's full name.
----> This I understand too, I don't have a middle name so he let blank, I guess we should have written "none"
In Part 3, Information on the Immigrant(s) You are sponsoring, please correct the following...
[x] Item 7. The total number of immigrants listed in Item 7 must equal the number of immigrants listed in Part 3, Items
1 through 6.f. In addition, you must also verify that the total number of immigrants listed in Item 7 matches the
number you entered in Part 5 Item1.
----> I don't understant this mistake at all since everything seems to be correct, I'm the only applicant so it's written "1" everywhere and for the number of people in the household, the addition is good too.
In Part 4. Information on the Sponsor, please correct the following...
[x] Items 1.a. through 1.c. You must enter your full name.
[x] Item 7. You must enter your city or town of birth.
[x] Item 8. You must enter your state or province of birth.
----> Everything is also filed properly here
Did you guys ever get a checklist like this with items to be modified when they are already correct ?
Thank you for your help, we might call the NVC too to get a little more information too. At least, we're happy because even if it's still not completely ok, they're going to schedule an interview dancin5hr.gif
