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

You don't have to wait for the email. If you know what the checklist is send it with the barcode!! ASAP! Good luck

Thank you so much! I already sent it today, printed out the original AOS barcode and overnighted it, I figured if its not accepted this I can send it again with the checklist coversheet.

Hi Sukie,

As I watch of late I see time frames shifting and technical issues at NVC that I did not experience.

It forces everyone to interact more with the "Angry Birds" and makes accurate estimates of each

step more difficult to make. I want to buy a plane ticket so bad, but I dare not until I see if and when

I make the June interview. I still want to do the "Bridge Climb" one day. I showed my wife the photos

from my other post to you and she wants to go one day. My heart is with everyone on this thread.

I read every post and agree in prayer with each person here to be united with their family's soon. :yes:

Good afternoon everyone,

Quick question..I am scanning all of my IV and AOS documents into a pdf, but some of my documents are rotated wrong. I am trying to rotate them, but when I save it doesn't save the changes. I was told that you can't save changes into adobe reader, does anyone have an idea how I can fix this?

Thank you!

I found this site: http://www.pdfrotate.net/

If you use the main button you will rotate all pages. To rotate specific pages, click on "Rotate a single page instead? Click here"

Hope it helps :)

Oh yes, the EZ form asks for adjustment total income, where just the I-864 asks for the total income. They just like to confuse people! ;) Hope you get a complete case soon though!!

the I-864EZ still uses the total income from line 22 on the 1040.. You use the adjusted gross income only if you filed the 1040EZ.

I used the total income from line 22 on my 1040.

But, but I feel in my bones you have good news today, how about a little later on when you have more time and you put your finger in a splint? :D

Oh congratulations I'm so happy for you both, God bless you. :)(F) (F)

I was able to talk to agent Jim (he must be from the South, eh?) this evening. Well, NVC still hasn't received my case from NSC yet. :ranting:

I don't feel like calling them back tomorrow since I still can't feel my finger from pressing the redial button so many times. :rofl:

I'll call them back on Thurs or Friday. I hope NVC will have received my case by then. :unsure:

I should probably wait until my case leaves the NVC building before posting more flattering imagery of our Immigration Partners....

But for now I have some extra time while waiting for the interview so there will be more fun to come at their expense.....of course.. :D

I filled out the EZ... I now see that I put the TOTAL INCOME on both of those lines..... What a dumbass..... UGHH Well... hopefully because it is way over the poverty amount they will let me correct it later. They have my tax transcript, my 1040, my paystubs and an employer letter. I think I covered it..LOL This process SUCKS... The incorrect AOS filled out by my lawyer had the same mistake but with the WRONG TOTAL INCOME. I can only imagine the field day they will have with my AOS..

Remember, when it comes to NVC, no news is usually good news. You cc should be here in the next 2-3 days! Fingers crossed!! :)
