NVC Filers - April 2014

GM!!!!!!!

Happy Monday. Just an update.

Got my case number today!!!!!!

Case was recived at NVC on 3/10

Should I try and send the email for choice of agent or is it to soon????

Thanks VJ for all your help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The choice of agent email was used before the form went electronic last fall. There's no point really now; if you send an email it'll take them weeks to receive it, and in the meantime the form will be made available through CEAC. It'll be faster if you just hang on and wait for the DS-261 to appear online. Congrats on getting your case number!

My husband called NVC this morning, it took him 3 seconds to wait and then he got an answer! It was never before so fast.

Our case is still not completed.

Keep on waiting!

Good luck to all of us!

Waiting for case number

[LoveMyTico 999]

Just spoke to JOY at the NVC.. She either needs a new line of work or another cup of coffee. She is not a happy girl today.

She told me it takes 30 days to review the DS260 and another 30 days to review the IV and AOS packages. ( full of ####### )

and she did not understand what I was asking. She just kept saying I cannot submit another DS260.. And I kept saying that is not what I asked and I don't want to submit another one... OMG thick headed woman.. I explained that my lawyer did not sign the AOS package, she said they will not hold up my package for that. My signature is the one they need. and if I suspect a mistake on the income, she suggests I wait for a checklist and she would not send in a correction unless asked for one.

SO, I have to beg my lawyer to verify the amount he used on the package. I know the original package they sent to me is definitely incorrect. I just need to find out what they actually sent. Getting a reply from this lawyer is worse than pulling teeth. I still want to know what I paid him for.

It just feels like there are so few VJ members up here! Plenty in PA/NY, tons down in TX, but New Englanders seem few and far between. At least in our little visa "generation"

I'm a professional writer/editor, I could be of great use on an advertising campaign!

I had a bead experience tallking to Joy also (Joy, what an irony).

Anyway, just hang in there lady! Almost over!!!!

I spoke to Joy this morning too in regards to my ENROLL email and acceptance. And I agree with you 100% Not a happy girl. I've talked to her before too. She told me that it takes 30 days to receive emails, and then 30 days to review them. So it's going to take 60 days for my ENROLL acceptance, AOS and IV to be accepted and reviewed, I think not, atleast I hope not LOL. Just ridiculous.

I may not be a "professional" writer, but I have written 10 or so fictional novels Perhaps the two of us should start working together for this book

[bkghosh 121]

Thanks Man, does this status keeps on showing as 'Completed', even when its 'accepted' on the website (both for 261 and 260)??

This is what the website shows. DS-261 completed, AOS fees paid, IV fees paid, and DS260 completed.

Haha, deal! "Professional" just means I've lucked out and found someone fool enough to pay me for having good grammar

[Hiwatari 9]

Just sent the AoS and IV package on Saturday, should arrive today! ~(^.^)~

I hope the turn around will be quick on Appointment date!

[LoveMyTico 999]

our IV and AOS packages were received on FIrday. Miss Nasty Pants Joy said I need to wait 30 days for them to review. I think JOY just enjoys saying "wait 30 days". She assumes everyone is dumb and doesn't know the NVC process...

I hope to hear something soon. I can't wait to get back to the time when I actually enjoyed the weekends and Holidays... I dread the holiday this Friday. Its just another lost day to me.

But Saylin, how will you discount it and how do we pay for it? Will it be with credit cards or via our bank accounts. If by check do we put it in your name or your company name and if so what is the name of the company and what is the street address? If it doesn't arrive do we call you or write you and what address? So we wait a few day or do we contact you right away?

hahaha!!!

I got my case # on march 18th, but I'm still getting the " This case is in the process of termination..." error when trying to pay on the online site. Everyone else seems to be getting the option to pay within a week or so, am I missing something? Or is it more common than I thought that it takes a month to invoice the AOS and IV bills?

And I thought it was supposed to speed up after USCIS. . .

Thanks in advance!

I'd be calling NVC to check.
