So strange I never cot a cc email. CC was 12th April 2014. Called again last week just to make sure and she said my case was waiting for an interview date. But still starting to worry my case will fall through the cracks! Lol. Good luck to you all today :)

I know at this point we are all paranoid and we have earned it hahahaa. ;):rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Not much of a difference really but If I where you I would call since they take a while to send e-mails. Congratulations :)(F) (F)

I think we all are. The emails come through to my phone and my laptop. First thing I do when I wake up is check the action during the night. Then I keep a window opened on my computer at work.

There is support here from people who actually understand the process. You can't get support from the outside world.. They don't get it.

Exactly - Certified copy was issued by a public notary and this copy was then translated into English.Looks like this was not correct....

NVC couldn`t really help me yesterday. Today I went to the local town/city hall in the city where I was born and they issued my a birth certificate (a duplicate with real signature and real stamp, long form birth certificate.)

So I guess this should be correct now - When I submit this duplicate with a translation will this be acceptable?

Also how long does it take the NVC to review this again? 2 weeks?

Exactly, printed by them, long form, all good.

Put Case # on each page, copies and originals.

I used small non permanent stickers on mine that

I had printed the case # on

I made a copy of everything.

Express ship (recommended)

Especially this packet full of difficult to replace Docs.

Dont want it laying around to be lost or damaged.

The Cover letter is most important.

Describe in detail each item and how it relates

such as "proof of income"

Paper Clips only.....One large binder to hold it all together :)

14 days seems to be the magic number of late to review

Sign everything that needs signing

Date everything that needs a date

Dont forget the Bar-coded cover sheet

Add me to the list of members with compulsive VJ behavior! :P Before I even get out of bed in the morning I'm reading through all the email notifications I received overnight.

Congrats to everyone with an interview assigned so far, I hope many more of you receive good news this round -- including case completes in time to get in on June scheduling :)

Spoke to Sandy... Really nice woman !

BTW they are aware of the list we have going on here. I asked if she reads the forum, she said she DOES NOT but doesn't know if others do. I did not mention VJ..

So word travels fast ! Too funny

I was told mail is processed by the day.

Most people do not wait for the bills to show paid before they send in the packages. Sometimes they get truckloads of mail per day.

We had a discussion about the I-130 backlog when they were stockpiling the files.. Then all of a sudden the NVC got slammed she said... She said they are trying to offer better customer service and spend more time answering the questions from the callers because it is taking longer to process at the NVC. I thanked her for being so nice.
