NVC Filers - April 2014

[bkghosh 121]

Many a folks here suggest to get the vaccinations done in a clinic before the medical itself, but to be very frank, i always have a doubt in mind regarding this.

1. If i get the vaccination in a clinic, will they be acceptable (i mean will they be according to US standards). Also, am ready to pay more to the doctor during medicals, but don't want to get extra vaccinations again if the doctor says that its not according to US standards (which they can obviously say, to make money).

2. I am not sure about the exact list of the vaccination to get (don't want to get unwanted ones ).

3. If i get the vaccination from outside and during medicals doctor accepts the same, it may happen that he mentions this in the report and thus, embassy guys will reject it saying that it should be from the hospital they mentioned on the website.

1. Vaccinations are same and it does not matter where you get them (from your family physician, vaccination clinic, or during the Medicals).

2. The list of vaccinations is provided in the NVC website here: http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/english/immigrate/immigrant-process/interview/prepare/medical-exam-faqs.html

(towards the bottom under Vaccinations).

The list of vaccinations is also provided on the New Delhi US Embassy pdf here: http://travel.state.gov/content/dam/visas/Medical/NWD%20-%20New%20Delhi.pdf

As an adult you do not get all these vaccinations. Many of them are given only to children. But your doctor or vac clinic also knows this.

3. At the same NVC website it clearly states to bring with you (at the time of Medicals) the following:

Obtain the following records and bring them to your medical examination:

• Your vaccination immunization records
• Any prior chest x-rays
• Copies of your medical history records
• Your passport, identity card, ...etc.

Ultimately it is your choice as to what you decide to do.

Koekoe, you, me and LoveMyTico should get lucky on Friday (I hope). I'm beaming positive energy towards New Hampshire. I'd love to have a lovely weekend knowing my case is complete!

You made me happy !

But remember I had to send the corrected AOS because I trusted the lawyer ... GRRR... but that was received only 3 days after the first package. Best case... they look at the original package today and tomorrow..issue my checklist and then pick up the correction on Thursday or Friday.. I'd be fine with a CC before the end of April...

I know I'm getting a checklist.... mostly for the incorrect income amount that the lawyer INSISTED was fine to use and the lack of his stupid signature... I sent the AOS correction myself with another transcript and copy of the 1040. Had to correct my husbands name and address too.

Crossing fingers and toes that the lawyer sent all the correct civil documents and I don't get a checklist for that too. You'd think since they are immigration lawyers that they would know what is required...smh Goes to show that you can't trust anyone but yourself.

Ekec, I didn't mean to exclude you. There are at least four of us whose packets were scanned in on April 15th.

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!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you. Yup, I try to think of the better days ahead! For starters, would really like to be able to fill that DS-261 out! What's keeping NVC?

I need help now that I realized what I needed for the next process. I made a mistake and didn't realize all the I-130 needed was a copy I sent them the original ! so what do I do when I need it for the IV packet?

You can request certified copies (as distinct from photocopies) from the original issuing entity. The certified document will have an endorsement, such as a seal, to show it's official and a true copy of the original document.

How long till I get case complete, my IV was entered into the system on the 9th, that's the only thing left to be reviewed,AOS already reviewed and accepted, including ds-260

Sorry i didn't mention which copy it was our marriage certificate. Ok so my husband that's in Ethiopia will go to the place where we got married and tell them we need a certified copy ?

[nightingalejules 678]

We almost have the same timeline. NVC received our case last April 8. Have you tried calling NVC again for the case number?

I've been calling once a week, but didn't get home in time last night. Will probably try today just on the off chance. But looking at the spreadsheet it looks as though I'll get a case number around May 5th.
