Hi ema and Jin!

I read your previous post and i pasted it below,

Posted 04 February 2014 - 04:36 AM

To the OP: my case was expedited from NVC as well. I paid all the AOS/IV fees online and my wife also completed the DS-260 online. NVC received my Affidavit of Support documents and my wife's documents last Friday. How long does it typically take them to ship the case to the Embassy?

Thanks and keep us updated about your medical exam!

With this regards, i know that you are waiting for your file to be transfered to USEM right? Same with mine guys, my papers was not transfered to USEM when NVC recvd all they need from us and what i did i called them feb 3 and told them that my file is under expeditious process and it should be tansfered to USEM as soon possible. And the operator was not aware and what she she did she put me on hold and then she get back to me ans told me that her supervisor will review the file and request for it to be sent to USEM. And i told the lady that they should forward it to manila now coz the consule or embassy is waiting for it. And she said her supervisor will take care of it since she have no right to rush it. Then i asked her that your supervisor will forward it to USEM as soon as possible right for expeditious process? And she said YES! Then the following day feb 4 i rcvd an e-mail that our file will be forwarded to USEM that day and further questions should be directed to USEM..

Guys you should call them now before you wait for long. Remember your case status is under expeditious processing. Remind them guys... Just wanna help you guys.. Good luck to all of us! God bless...

Hey! Saw that your case has been received by the USEM today. Did you try to call them if you can get your interview this week?

Posted

Hi, you need to confirm first with usem because a week after my case left nvc, i called and asked if i can already have my interview scheduled since it's been 4 days that may case is ready as per ceac. However the lady said i cant schedule yet because they still havent received the "physical" file from nvc. The number to call is (632)301-2000

Ps. I still went ahead and scheduled my interview for the 25th, i think thats enough time for them to receive the physical file. Hehe smile.png good luck on your interview!

Hi there! Just got the ceac status to "Ready" and called the number you gave me. Was told the same thing. What is just confusing is she said that we can only email them to request for an earlier date but there is one person here in VJ that got her mom resched online. :(

Yes I was able to resched it online but resched it on Feb 19th lol. I am worried that i would have to cancel that if the case will not be "physically" at the embassy. When was your case delivered as per DHL? Ours was just delivered today. hehe
