Apparently NVC was just waiting for me to lose all hope, sit back and get comfortable before throwing us for a loop. Yesterday evening we received an email notification for a May 19 interview in Londo

I have been calling NVC and checking email for the interview date.. :clock:

I don't think my feet have touched the ground since " Case Complete "

My wife's roots run very deep in her home country both family and

spiritually so lifting her from the soil of Thailand and transplanting

her to the USA fully intact has become my focus and has required

a level of sensitivity to her family there that I had not imagined

I can imagine. I can't wait for that day when I too get a case complete.

Right now I've started conscientizing the family of the eventual move... that way even though they know that day is coming, it will still not come as a shock to anyone.

It will be available either today or tommorrow at most!

Just relax, almost there!!!

My IV fee is now a full yellow triangle and I'm able to click Pay... but the fee center won't let me pay the IV fee. exepcted?

Yeap, I have the same triangle for IV fees since Friday evening! Still not able to pay! but it is only matter of hours or couple of days now!

Fully expected!!

Darn DS-261 just won't allow itself to be available! :ranting:

I know relax is easier said than done!

I'm obsessing about my IV fees right now! I check every minute now and I will not stop until I pay them!!!!!! :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

Yup, I know. Like many here, this visa process has been an uphill battle for us. Not only has it taken forever, but while we have waited, family members have gotten sick and there is nothing we can do from here, except send our prayers and hope we get to see them again. Annoyingly enough all our belongings (furniture, photos, baby stuff etc.) in the U.S got destroyed by a flood and there was nothing we could do. I know it's only material stuff and can be (for the most part, except for my wedding dress, which had sentimental value to me :( ) replaced, but still sucks. Anyways, waiting a few days for DS-261 shouldn't be a major thing, but again...it still sucks. Trying to stay positive tho :)

IR1 took 520 days....

Oh my God! I'm really sorry to hear about all that!!!!

USCIS and NVC are not making this process easy on us and the toll it is taking on our famillies is really huge!

On the other hand, we are almost there! couple more months and we all will be reunited with our loved ones once and for all!

God bless!!!!!!!!!!!

Is there somewhere to track out case status online once at the NVC stage and afterwards like there was at the USCIS stage?? I've gone here https://ceac.state.gov/CEACStatTracker/Status.aspx but I just keep getting this error message

"An unexpected error has occurred while processing your previous request. The error has been reported to the site administrator; no further action is required".
