gogo - you should relax a bit, go cook a brisket, then come back and check it again.

My wife's visa arrived at the Citic Bank in Nanning today, so 13 days from the interview. For what it's worth, the CEAC site is stuck at "Printed", while UStravelDocs shows ready for pickup. USTravel

I just sent in the emails again to passportstatus (yesterday didn't show anything); and only one of them got an answer back immediately... but I'm guessing both are the same status since from the beginning they were..

"The current status of your passport is Origination Scan."

According to my "passport status" post, that means they are ready to send out (waiting for courier) to come and pick up.. then delivery 2-3 days as what noahsmama said..

haha, Darnell, I made some brisket and it smells good and came right back to the same status.. rofl.gif

Yay ! All Hail CITIC Bank Courier - they seem to be the only player in this game that goes fast !

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !

rjd - NO - in fact, you two have 1 year to pay it, after the POE event.

But don't sweat, as at the POE, she'll receive a stamp in her passport that endorses the visa to be utilized as a 1 year temporary I-551 document, a 1 year green card (of sorts), so she's legal after exiting the International Arrivals Exit Door, somewhere inside the USA.

Are you sure, I just read somewhere else that you will not get one if you do not pay the fee beforehand? The information from USCIS is. It consistent as well. Some say you have to before, and some say you can. This is where I saw about not getting the green card, http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/424337-new-uscis-visa-immigration-fee/

no, it's wrong .

although you do have to pay the fee prior, to receive a greencard later,

the timing on the payment has been erroneous since ELIS took over the payment stream from pay.gov

This concept of 'when to pay' is the erroneous bit.

Thanks Darnell. That's what I thought, but you can never be too sure in these matters. Still a bit anxious though to get this all behind us. This whole thing has been a very stressful journey, it will be nice to finally be able to put most of it behind us.

Gogo. FYI, if you go to pay the visa fee and they have a nine digit A number they are having issues with being able to process payments with a complete nine digit number. Supposed to be fixed by Friday, but we'll see.

ok thanks rjd2013.. Yeah, I just did it this morning.. paid fees for both parents, and got the receipt confirmation.. I will check the ELIS (you should too) the day they come in at Port of Entry.. supposedly your account that your registered them in will have more updates online.. right now it is approved but waiting for review..

Add a '0' at the beginning of your A number...

example shown on summary sheet:

A12354655

would be

A012354655

She literally just came through, and I am going to pick her up tonight. Her A number though was not eight digit number but a nine digit number, so you cannot put the 0 before.

administrivia -

once you got the visa packet, there's papers attached to the outside - scan those, email them to the petitioner. Useful for other stuff later, as the CBP folk will snatch all at the POE.
