Case went IN TRANSIT but case not yet completed

[nilo jayr 4]

It's this one: (632) 301-2000

There's no need for an appointment for advance medical. As long as you registered online and have necessary documents, you can go there and have your medical. Once USEM have your physical files, try to ask them if you can set the interview date online. I checked the site and as of now, there are still 70 slots available for Nov. 19. Keep us posted! Na-excite na rin tuloy ako. Haha! Hope it's a lucky day for all of us since I'll be leaving the country that day.

Thanks!

Oh, yeah I just went to SLEC's website they do first come first serve basis. And already did the online registration. Will go there thursday @4am and try to finish the medical in one day.!!! It's a bit tiring driving from Pampanga to Manila for two days. Lol.

Thanks for the info! Hope there will still be left slots for us the day USEM received our files. Praying...???

Yes. I will keep on updating this. So that people will have an idea what is going-on on a expedited case and also for future reference.

Wow! Congratulations! Have a safe trip. Reuniting with family soon.! So happy for you.!!

Good luck! I went there around 2am but I still have to return the next day. I hope you all will get Immunization rather than Sputum.

Thank you! ) Did you call NVC/USEM already?

Yeap called them last night (philippines time) and confirmed that our cases was expedited.

Just today, i checked our IV case status at ceac.state.gov from "IN TRANSIT" it was changed to "READY" today Nov5. I called USEM Manila if we can already schedule our interview but they said that i still have to wait for the email confirmation from NVC or USEM saying that our case is ready for scheduling our interview.

I was in the same boat as you! Congratulations! NVC expedited my case without formal request. They sent my case and my brother's (we're not on the same case also) to USEM last October 10. I called them last October 22 and they said that they already received the physical files. The operator asked me if I already submitted the DS260, which I just completed but haven't submitted yet. She told me to wait for their email that day or on the 23rd which I did. I had my medical exam on the 23rd when I got their email regarding the waived schedule and just go their on any work day around 7:30am - 10:30am. I called them just to make sure if I can go their on the 25th since I will have to get our results on the 24th. She said yes and noted that we will be going there on Friday. I got my medical records the next day and prepared all necessary documents. Good thing I brought all the requirements. But I searched for photographic evidences that she's our mom on Facebook. So glad that I uploaded my grad pics last year or else. Haha I didn't expect to have our interview that week! We went to USEM at around 6:30 and the guard said that we should wait for 15 more minutes. Come quarter to 7 and we approached the guard again and asked if we can go inside. He said to just approach the other guard in the tent. That other guard told me to fall in line to the lady in the middle. There, she asked me if I have an appointment letter and I just presented to her the email and she let us pass through. FF: The Filipino interviewer asked us to submit our birth certificates, NBI clearances, form I-864EZs', W2s and ITRs (most recent but I brought ITR 2011 and 2010 just in case), mom's passport and green card photocopy. We paid for the IV fee there because we haven't paid it at NVC yet. She just asked us some basic questions. What's my name, birthday, who's my petitioner, what's her work, when's her first entry to the US, how did she got her green card, what's her address. She also asked me if I was issued/ denied a visa and what's the reason for the refusal. She also asked if I had any photographs, which I luckily searched last night. She just looked at it and returned it to me afterwards. She made us sign forms. For me, it was a form that stated that I should stay single until I reached US or else my visa will be revoked. My brother signed the same form and an additional one about (selective) military service which is required for males age 18-26(?). The American consul was very nice to us. She just asked us our names and birthday and that's it! I was nervous at first because it was taking a long time before she said that our visas are approved! ) It looked to me like she was changing our visa status to 'ISSUED' because she keeps on asking a worker there how to change something on the screen. Lol! Then she said "One window left! Congratulations! Have a nice day!" I was like, oh gee! I keep on hitting my brother because I can't freaking believe it! Hahaha! After a long journey! We got our visas after 5 days, on time for my birthday! Best ever! keep us posted! I'm happy for y'all!

Hi Binashi!

I re-read your reply again on this thread. I just want to ask one thing on the interview were you and your brother interviewed at the same time eventhough you have two different cases?

Thanks in advance!

Hi guys, just an update, our request to expedite was denied by the embassy or consulate, thats what the email said....oh well, it sounded too good to be true to have my sister here sooner than later:((( Hopefully everything goes fine at NVC. Good luck to all!

Cool! Just count the days then. Haha! My case was sent last October 10 and they sent out a letter last October 22 but I just got it this Monday. So maybe, you can call them again after 7 working days after NVC sent out your case.

Yes. The Filipino interviewer just noticed that he is with me after she got all my documents. She asked if he is <name> then said, "Paano ka?" I told her that I asked the embassy rep if I can bring my brother along even though we are in a separate case since he's case was also expedited and she said yes. The interviewer then asked her senior about it and the latter said that it's fine and they will just search for his files.

Oh my. Did they gave you any specifics as to why it was denied? I'm sorry to hear that.

Nope, no specifics. Just a standart email saying it will be under review at NVC and once they receive all the documantation and fees and after the review is done they wil forward it to the embassy( not sure why they say that since they already have everything:fees and documents) I am thinking its all the embassy;s fault:) Its going to Moscow, and they are not very friendly there:) still hoping for the best, keeping my fingers crossed for 0 checklists:)

Thank you, and good luck to u

PS email actually said that embassy denied the request

Praying for your case. Just have faith. Everything will be fine.

Actually I'm calling them everyday. Lol. Well, goodluck to my cellphone bill this month. Haha

The lady nga pala told us that we will be the one to schedule our interview once they received the physical files from NVC.

Just wondered this one because i can see people with one case being interviewed simultaneously. I just have no idea on cases like ours. Not anymore, thanks to you!

I can see on your signature you have already attended the PDOS. How is the experience? how old is your brother? Did he took the peer counseling?

So it really is the embassy's doing. That's a bummer. And you're right about them, not being friendly. Best of luck to you!

Hala. Good luck talaga! Good thing, they don't hold our calls for so long unlike NVC. I'll not be here when the telephone bill arrives so my dad will just have to pay for it. )

That's good! Hopefully, you can schedule it on 19th.

No prob! I was worried too that time because he has no official appointment.

Super kaantok! Haha umalis kami ng Baguio around 12AM na kasi. The lecturer told us about the benefits of being and LPR and how to maintain it, dual citizenship, how to be a USC, what not to bring (wherein I have to delete all my downloaded movies T.T). You can actually get the soft copy of the ppt presentation. He's turning 19 and yes, he attended the peer counseling session.
