NVC Filers - April 2014

[Ryan H 3,812]

How long have people waited before they received ENROLL acceptance email? I've been waiting almost a month, is this normal. Called NVC several times been told it's normal and that it's not normal, can never get a straight answer.

I waited 6 days before the file was converted from paper to electronic.

Just called NVC.. Interview scheduling for MAY is finished for Mumbai Consulate.. Now on wait for JUNE interview

I definitely feel your pain, hehe. But June scheduling should be just a couple of weeks away

lol! This is like the discussion I had with my husband about Mother's Day. In the UK it's in March, and in the US it's in May. I told him ours being later means there are all the nice flowers available to send to moms... he told me that happens in March in the UK It's a spring holiday in both countries, but we have VERY different definitions of spring!

Lol! Sounds just like me and my wife..! We tend to celebrate both US, and UK holidays.. Still not sure how I felt about celebrating the 4th of July in the UK last year though.. She calls it "divorce day" between the US and UK.. Bad break up apparently

[etrangais 947]

My AOS fee is Not Invoiced yet.. I'll be checking back in a couple days

Haha! My husband insists that England simply decided they didn't want us anymore and that they preferred Canada. To hear him tell it, it was less of a breakup and more the casting off of an undesirable I've asked him to please bring his redcoat and then hang around the Tea Party site

Now you can hang out with me and Jem for the next couple of weeks while we wait for June scheduling!

[Kaylara 814]

Also the lines, I'm willing to bet. Nothing says fun day out like waiting in interminable lines, right? Not that we're not used to that from the visa process...

Kaylara, you're probably following the May interview thread, but thought of you just now because a Netherlands filer announced a visa approval Maybe they'll write a review/share experiences with you. Can't wait to see your husband get his date, you guys have been waiting much longer than long enough!

I'm not worried at all about the consulate there. We've dealt with them quite a few times in the past 10 years, and have never had an issue. We're expecting a fairly easy interview, given our previous experiences with them. Heck, the security guards recognize us at this point.

Ok guys.... here is a question...

i read at VJ.... Step 6 - IV Package... this...

"Note: the two packages (AOS and IV) can either be mailed separately or together. Either one works. Again, as long as NVC receives it, that's all that matters. If you do decide to mail them together, I suggest putting each in a separate manila envelope (and clearly mark it and write "AOS" or "IV" on each one), then putting both manila envelopes inside the shipping envelope."

Question; that mean... i can send the 2 packages by (postal service), after we pay the AOS FEE, n get only include a copy of your bar-code sheet of only that AOS FEE (bcs at that moment only paid the AOS FEE) ??.... is that the correct way to send?..... and that is for different departament, how i do it?

Thx

It means that if you've paid for both (AOS and IV), then you could send them together, each with their own bar-coded sheet attached. You would have to delay sending the AOS package until payment is invoiced/paid for the IV and then send both together

You can send both of them together only if you get your AOS and IV fee invoiced together (This will happen if you have a lawyer). Otherwise you have to wait and pay the IV fee prior to sending the IV package.

If I start teasing her about that, I usually get the response "Don't be mad because your people didn't make it over there when we did".

Glad to put some humour in your life gwenstar .

Exactly! You can try to mask your sour grapes with nonchalance, but we know better!

US-UK relationships are comedy gold. Especially living in Boston
