Is anyone else receiving this message when trying to pay the AOS bill?

HTTP error 503. The service is unavailable.

This is the third day that we haven't been able to pay.

Very frustrating that they are not fixing it.

They may have just decided to call it a weekend. Still waiting as well.

Don't staple!

I put a big clip on the top of everything.

Just double check you signed and dated. And also leave no blanks on the I864, everything should either have N/A or NONE written.

Best wishes!

What happens if you staple? Am hearing this for the first time.

I have no idea why USCIS messed up my case.

Frist of all, I never got transferred like others fillers in August thread. ( why just me :shocked: )

2) They closed my 129f before approving my 130.

3) They never give me any answer about my expedite request. ( pending)

4) finally, when its time to send my case to NVC, they didn't send my full package to them.

NVC told me that they were missing some documents from USCIS.

I emailed my senator and created some request at uscis and nvc.

So the senator helped you??How??how did u receive tha news that yr case has been sent to NVC?

From my experienced, I can say that NVC is way better than USCiS.

NVC emailed me when they got my case from uscis.

Don't staple because they want to be able to take apart your package, scan it in, etc. Staples will just cause unnecessary work for them.

a month of have been approve and still nothing !...

Have you called NVC to confirm they have your file?

For all those active and even those who just lurk, please send in the form to update the spreadsheet with your information to Saylin. 99% of the time, I am mobile because I have a teething, miserable 6, almost 7 month old. I cannot see signatures or timelines while mobile.

I do, however, have the spreadsheet open on another page to quickly review information on every case complete. It really helps to have that information on there, so please update.

I second this :thumbs::thumbs::thumbs:

Thanks Lucybelle - I'm confused here because if I'm not supporting anyone else beside the principal immigrant, would I still fill out N/A for all the family member fields. Also what about additional assets if I'm not required to fill it out? Technically, checking and savings accounts are applicable and I can't put none, but it is not required. So confused! :wacko::wacko: :wacko: :wacko: :wacko:

Hello, It looks silly but it is better if you fill out "N/A" or "NONE" as needed on every blank field. Other people here have received checklists for blank fields. I don't think I've heard of anyone getting a checklist for typing N/A or "none".

If it is just you, your beneficiary and using only your income, have you considered filling out the I-864EZ? Check out if you qualify to submit this form instead of the longer I-864.
