NVC Filers - April 2014

[theluckygirl 30]

Welcome to another monthly thread for those going through NVC!

Before posting questions, please read the wiki I wrote on the NVC process here. Once you're done, read it one or two more times to really understand it

For up to date time frames, you can view my spreadsheet here. If you would like to be added (or have your entry updated), then please fill out the form here (please read the instructions at the top carefully, especially the update part as people aren't filling the form out correctly [they're filling out information not needed]).

P.S. I will be much less active in reading (and thus answering) posts in these monthly threads, so don't bother asking me questions directly. Just post them here for everyone to see and someone will come along to answer. Remember to be patient

Good luck to all! (And congratulations now on all the progress that will be made this month!)

Saylin my info is not on your spreadsheet. I filled out the form, but I still don't see my name. I know your busy too .... thank you for all the information, time and energy you put into the site.

I'm not sure what you're talking about as you ARE on the spreadsheet. I added you right away once I saw the form request...

Hi Saylin,

Does it mean my case is completed at NVC?

received following email,

We have finished reviewing your case. We will tell you when we set an interview

date for your case. Please do not contact the U.S. Embassy or Consulate in NEW

DELHI, INDIA about your interview until we give you the date.

We saw that either your Affidavit of Support was incomplete, some of your

supporting documents were missing, or both. We have marked the missing items

on the checklist below.

You should send any of the missing items to XXXXX so he or

she can take them to the visa interview. The Consular Officer will review the

missing items at the time of the interview.

Please pay special attention to any items related to the Affidavit of Support form.

If the checklist shows any problems with the form, you should complete a new

form and send it to XXXXX.

If you do not send the missing information to XXXXX, his or

her visa application could be delayed or denied.

Saylin,

I found myself, thank you for adding me.

This was discussed somewhere in the I-130 March 2013 filers' thread and I was told I could not call the USCIS. I just now saw Saylin's spreadsheet and those people whose cases were approved from Nebraska as late as 10th March have added an NVC received date. I and Leury (NOA2 date 3/10) seem to be the only ones from Nebraska whose cases have not been received by NVC yet.

Why were you told you can't call? Once NVC has your case there's no point calling USCIS anymore, but until NVC acknowledges it has arrived USCIS is still the only place that can give you information.

Congratulations kalloo,

your case is complete.. just bring the missing documents to the interview date once you recieve a date.... Since you got your email today, your case was completed a few days ago.

Incorrect. You have all the right to call the NVC and ask them as well as the USCIS and ask whether your case has even been shipped to the NVC...

Saylin,

I just noticed that on the spreadsheet under the AOS packet, it says 3/17 ( this is the date it was accepted...) the date it was actually received by the NVC was on 2/25... I don't recall if that's the date you wanted on your form.. sorry..

Saylin,

I just noticed that on the spreadsheet under the AOS packet, it says 3/17 ( this is the date it was accepted...) the date it was actually received by the NVC was on 2/25... I don't recall if that's the date you wanted on your form.. sorry..

Well, I had to pull from your signature. And I actually want the dates the packages were SENT, not received or accepted.

[BOS_LHR 829]

Five days of processing pending for us since 28th, so maybe a shot... I plan to cross all my fingers and call on Thursday and until then

I'll be eagerly watching for your update on Thursday, and you can keep an eye out for mine on Friday if you don't get any news before then. We'll just tag team NVC until case complete!

[dilmera 124]

I echo Bos_Lhr. You should definitely call USCIS and ask if it has physically left the building then track that sucker until you know it has arrived at the NVC just to make sure it doesn't get shipped to the national records center by mistake. I have seen that happen on here.

Now I am scared. I don't want to be going to the national records center, already more than one year was taken up for the approval. I have never called USCIS before but I called just now. However, I was unable to get to a live person. Someone with an accurate link on how to get to a live person at USCIS. I searched other threads and they gave many options on how to do that, one was to not enter anything, not even choose the language. They will think you are using a rotary phone and transfer you to a live person. I did that and the recorded voice said to call Mon through Fri between 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. and disconnected the call. On the USCIS website the time is past 8:00 a.m.
