Hi,

Yes I have to wait 1-2 days until I got an invoice.

I have been calling them since 11/1 almost every day, but was filing that I`ll get it after around 10-15 business day.

If you check some other people's timelines, you can see that it takes around 10-15-20 business days.

I-130 submitted - 03/12/2013

NOA2 hard copy in mail - 11/1/2013

NVC received the case - 1/11/2013

NVC case number - 11/20/2013

I check these urls:

https://ceac.state.gov/CEACStatTracker/Status.aspx?

From here I can check my case status.

https://ceac.state.gov/CTRAC/Invoice/Invoice.aspx?node=Invoice

From here I can log in and I can see that, I still don't have an invoce

https://ceac.state.gov/IV/Login.aspx

From here I can't log in - this is fod ds-261, chose of agent

I`ll wait to see what will happen

Did you get your case# just today? Mine was received on 12th Nov.

Is there a way to see the Philippine embassy timeline? Do you have a timeline for that? Or do I just have to go through all the forums and try to count, then guess? Or is there an easy link somewhere already.

Directing this question to those who filled out form I-864EZ:

I think the PDF file is really messed up as I am answering Part 3 Question 14 and checking the box "I am a U.S. Citizen". I, then move on to answer rest of the questions until I get to Part 5 Question 19 and check the checkbox and the form outputs an error saying "Invalid value USC..." and automatically unchecks Part 3 Question 14 checkbox that I had checked.

This is seriously f****d up, I can't even get either of them to check now, I can only check one of the other but not both. Has anyone noticed this behavior or can please confirm? If this is an issue in the form, I will have to contact NVC urgently as this should be fixed!

What I did was fillout when you can on the computer and after you print form, just use a black pen and filling the questions that you could not type in. That's what I did and you won't get the form return back to you. Use your best hand writing.
