NVC Filers - March 2014

[Saylin 1,605]

I only have the first page of my husbands passport, which has all the info on there.. do I need the last 2 pages??

You just need the bio-data page of the passport.

I can't believe this!!! I was calling to find out if my case had been received, but I got a NVC case# and IIN. The agent had my email address and phone# already, and I gave over my Wife's email address. When I asked for the IIN he gave it but mentioned don't try to pay or do anything until they send us an email. I didn't know about the beneficiary ID#, but was given that as well.

I am still in shock. I don't know if they got a bunch of cases assigned today or what?! I had called on Friday and was told they didn't have my case on record yet and to wait 8 weeks!! Today, they told me my case was created on the 27th!! I was approved on Feb 13 from CSC. Not clear to me when my case was received in that case.

I am hopping this means that they have made some major progress on the 20-30 business delays that they have been quoting.

Saylin, can you please update the spreadsheet?

Hi everyone..

I've a few questions. Hope someone would help:

1-Can we give our email addresses over phone or we have to sent email to NVC?

2-To complete DS-261 one should have beneficiary ID. For that do we have to wait for NVC's email instructing to fill DS-261 or that # can be acquired along with case # & IIN?

3-We have a co-sponsor (that is not a household member). I understand petitioner & co-sponsor would both be filling I864 but if co-sponsor (joint sponsor) is filing his tax return as Jointly Married would his wife be required to fill I864A or not?

1. Either way, but over the phone will be a heck of a lot faster.

2. Not correct, BIN isn't needed for the online forms.

3. No, spouses of joint sponsors aren't required to fill out an I-864A if they don't want to. Just make sure the joint sponsor includes their W2s with their tax transcripts to show individual income.

First off, please don't yell

And second, someone will come along and answer. I don't join/answer I-130 filer threads.

I responded.

And to help you understand more, have a detailed read through posts 1 & 2 of this thread. Some of your questions are answered clearly in the FAQ in post 2.

Gentlemen I have an update, got transferred to NVC today , before shipping TSC did punish us by unnecessarily holding for another 30 days.

Welcome friendly! Yeah, cases tend to sit at the service centers for a good while before being shipped out. Mine sat at TSC from Feb 10 till Feb 27.

Awesome, let's race! Haha Shouldn't be long for either of us now. My 2013 taxes were just accepted and I was able to download the transcript today, so I'm feeling good and ready to move forward. I was planning on using 2010-2012 and sending 2013 to the interview, but this is even better. Let's go NVC!

Hey guys!! I got my case number on the same date. And have the process of termination too hope we can pay soon Yay!!!$ sooo excited!

Did you guys receive any email from NVC after you got your case number?

I didn't get anything yet, my ds261 is all set, just waiting to get invoiced

[mhelztouffy 7]

Also, is it worth calling them to find out if our case is complete if the CEAC still says "at nvc". Does anyone know if this information is the most up to date or would a phone rep perhaps be able to tell us if our case was complete before the CEAC does?

Cheers

Keep calling. The operator is up to date than the ceac website. Got an email today saying they already forwarded my case to my consulate but my status in ceac is still "at nvc".

Send them an email and they will probably email you back. That's what I did. Sometimes it takes a while before they'll send you an update.

Hey everyone,

I received the AOS Bill by email today, however when I attempt to log into the system it still tells me my case is in the process of being terminated. Should I give it a day or give them a call? Thanks!

Please read posts 1 & 2. Nothing to worry about.

hey guys hope all is well with everyone... does anyone know when nvc says they have 30 days to review aos packets is that 30 days or 30 business days?

I think 30 days. It depends as well, sometimes it'll only takes 20-30 days.. check my signature below.

The IV package is about the beneficiary; only their documents are needed. The petitioner would have already sent their divorce certificates in the I-130 package.

that's what I read too Ms. Saylin to you posts. its just some members are posting infos that are totally different that makes me confused. guess I need to stick what Ms. Saylin is saying

Yes, you do

[Irra 14]

Yay! Congrats! I've been watching you and Infoneeded. We are all about the same time. Just sent my IV package today!! We are moving closer to the finish line!!!

Thank you! I'm also following your updates.I called the NVC to ask if they received my IV packet and the rep. said,they got it today and also it's under review.Next is for the DS-260 to be available,after 3 days I'm sure it will be available since it takes 3 days for the IV fee to show paid in the CEAC website.I'm so glad that this whole process is actually moving and getting closer to the finish line,I'm missing my husband so bad

We got a dreaded checklist. :-(

The Form I-864 we received was missing the following page(s). Please ensure you include all nine pages when you

resubmit the form.

[x]

You must submit the following financial evidence:

[x] A written statement indicating why you did not file ________2013___________________________ Federal income

tax returns.

[x] ___________2013________________________ Federal income tax returns, IRS printout, or Letter 1722 issued by

the IRS.

[x]

NVC Special Instructions

This was in regards to my father's (joint sponsor) I-864. I thought I was going to have an arguing point because he only submitted 2010, 11 & 12 tax transcripts....But, Going back through the items he added to the package, I notice that he included his 2013 W2s. ARGH! DAD!!!! I should've caught it, but oh well. So now they see he earned but didn't submit tax returns meaning they think he didn't file. He actual is in the process of filing right now I believe.

If I call up and tell them he is currently filing, will they waive the need for the written letter about why he didn't file? Since he is in fact filing? In which case, they just need the 2013 tax transcript. Also, will they maybe go ahead and say I can have my husband carry it to the interview instead of resubmitting? Or can I try to convince them to let me do that? Otherwise we have to wait for him to finish filing, then for the transcript to be ordered and mailed THEN mail the whole I-864 again. :-(

If they let my husband carry it to the interview, how do I get them to go back to reviewing my case since I wouldn't be mailing anything back to them?
