Hey guys.. just want your input in regards to the PCCS for the IV package.

I require 3 PCCs in total. The ones from Australia and Cyprus, will be sent directly to me so I have no problem with that, they will be included in the package I send to NVC.

However for the Greek PCC I need, that gets sent straight through to the US embassy in Athens. I wont be able to sent it to NVC.

On the NVC website, under Additional Embassy or Consulate Instructions, there is a PDF that states:

For residents in Greece, A PENAL RECORD FOR JUDICIAL PURPOSE is requested

NOTE: Penal records for JUDICIAL USE will be sent directly to the U.S. Embassy in Athens-they will not be sent or given to the applicant. Please do not obtain the penal record for General Use as it is NOT acceptable by the U.S Embassy.

Is it a good idea to print this out and include it with the IV package? Trying to avoid an unnecessary checklist!!

Yes, I definitely suggest printing it out. Even highlight that little section to really drive the point home ;)

check today!! ours was invoiced today, after receiving email 5:05am PST.

actually i was checking it last night, and noticed that theres no padlock in the IV fee. just a yellow triangle with black exclamation point! and whallla.....an email form NVC woke me up.

we have the same timeline as well as stacey&misho. but i know, you two will probably get a case complete first... our co sponsor is still having their vacation here in the philippines....

Yes and don't forget Mr & Mrs EMB. They are the same dates too. But they have a lawyer so their invoices were paid at the same time. I'll be curious to see if it goes faster with a lawyer handling the case. Good luck guys!! :)

Can you share how you were able to nudge NVC into action? I submitted DS-261 on Jan.30 and still waiting for IV processing fee invoice. I call NVC every day. Initially they used to say it takes 10 to 15 business days to review DS-261. Now they are saying it will be processed on First In First Out basis and saying wait for the email! Totally frustrating!

.... so I'm embarrassed to say that yesterday I realized I made ANOTHER mistake on my I-864. I was reading someone's question about Part 2. Information on the Principal Immigrant, and realized I had actually entered my own information for the "Mailing Address" and "Other Information", thinking that it was actually part of Part 1.

I'm not gonna stress over it, dumb mistake... I've already sent a correction for another mistake so this time I'm just going to wait till the NVC sends me a checklist.

The DS260 is the only form you can fill up online at your stage. You should fill it up as soon as possible. I remember it took me some time since I was missing some of the info it asked for.

I got confused when I filled up the Surnames on DS 261. It says put all the names in the passport. I put the middle and the last name since it asked for "Surnames", and of course my Given name as my first name. I know surname is the last name but in my passport includes my middle name too. I am kinda worried right now. Is there anyone who have the same issues like this? Please I need your opinion! Thanks! :(
