Not correct :no:

EP is simply emailing in forms, no special numbers needed (except your case number of course). The BIN used to be needed for the two online forms, but since it became required for everyone to fill them out, the BIN is no longer needed.

OMG you need to move over here girl you would love it. Sunny not humid and just a fun place to live. You can haul any family members who don't want to move in a bus with the windows painted over hahahaaa geez I sound like a criminal. :no:

Oh, trust me, I would LOVE to! Either there or Florida (where I lived for 2 glorious years). But alas, my husband hates the heat, so I don't think that will ever happen :crying:

Well Fargo makes a whole lot more sense now! You left Canada for him, he can suck it up and get central air in CA/FL right? :lol:

Originally it was South Dakota, which was bad already. Fargo's even worse cause it's even more north. Yay *sarcasm*

And seriously, I left Canada and my family to be with him, the least he can do is move to somewhere warm for me :lol:

Just got off the phone with NVC. Case Complete as of yesterday. Thank God (L)

Called NVC just now after reading Changnoi's case complete message and guess what, we got a CASE COMPLETE as of yesterday. Woo hooo!!!

Me and my hubby :dancing::dancing:

CASE COMPLETE!! Just called for an update and Rick said "Well, today's your lucky day! We finished reviewing your documents today and you have a case complete!" I was so ecstatic I didn't even ask about interviews in Dakar but will call back to do so tomorrow. Alhamdulilaahi!

Thanks everyone for your help, especially Saylin!

A few things for people who might be curious. We had no checklists, but lots of places where we thought we'd have problems:

-for the IV package, we sent in copies of the marriage translation and copies of the marriage certification (instead of originals with the bright red stamp) and we got no checklist, so maybe copies for translations are okay?

-The joint sponsor only gave last years taxes, and no proof of employment.

-The AOS forms of myself and the joint sponsor were full of blanks. I pretty much followed that example on VJ that has a bunch of blanks and had no problems.

-as a USC living abroad with only foreign-based income, I wrote my current income as 0, wrote a letter explaining it and sent no employment letter.

-The DS260 was full of strange addresses due to lack of street names, etc and we had no problems

...so whether we were a case that happened to squeeze by with errors or it's just NVC doesn't care, we don't know, but for anyone stressing over little errors, you might make it!

Good luck everyone!

This is so awesome!! Just what I wanted to see today!... It's raining Complete Cases :dancing:

Congrats to all of you!!! :dance::goofy:

yayyyyyy congratz!!!!!!! :goofy:

Oh YEAH......Crazy off the hook....buy a walk up ticket get on the plane ......thank you :dancing:

Awesome, Congratulations!!!!! Great News :jest:

The time is now...get ready...its your turn...... (L)

Congrats!! Thanks be to God! I am on hold with them now and would love great news like that! So happy that you will be reunited with your wife and adorable son soon :)

It's all about family...I am planning on flying them over on the 787 Dreamliner.....a perfect plane to culminate this journey on.....

YAY!!!!! Congrats!!!!! Who's going to make us laugh now? It takes a good sense of humor to get through this process. :). So happy for you!

I am hosting a pig pickin in the NVC parking lot next week...to celebrate Case complete....I invited the NVC employees...anyone hung up at NVC should come and mingle....... :idea:

Wonderful...congrats!!!!

One of my finest moment was watching Colm Wilkinson perform Les Misérables...gotta get back to the UK.....

OMG!!! Congrats Changnoi! Our timeline is almost identical. I will call NVC as soon as my shift is over.

I waited and did not call yesterday even though I knew already inside that it was a done deal......Call them...don't postpone the joy.....

I understand your pain! Sometimes I regret to be the control freak in our couple and to have decided to handle the whole process myself (I feel like speaking a foreign language when I tell them abiut NVC process...) Good luck though.

CONGRAAAATS! Let's hope to see more cases complete with no checklists! :-)

Yes ....I believe the flood gates are open......for case completes.....

I just got a checklist with gibberish in it. Anyone seen that before?

I think the gibberish says that the DS-260 is received but not all the affidavit of support info is there. There's no actual "checklist".
