I believe it is a false checklist for my AOS which was scanned on 4/24th-- It is asking for ALL civil documents which were scanned on the 6th.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Got a checklist for my marriage certificate!! Argh. But it is the original!!

I swear they checklist everyone for that freaking marriage certificate. *grumble grumble*

Could it possibly be because your initial ENROLL email was not confirmed yet? I see from your signature that it was sent on April 21. I sent mine on April 18 and still have not received my confirmation either. I know another EP filer who sent their ENROLL email on April 15 and received the confirmation on May 12. Based on that information I think my confirmation (and yours) should be coming by next week.

I also have had the same question since I did not get a email reply from my ENROLL emails sent April 21st. I was advised to call NVC and ask for a Supervisor so I did that. The Supervisor told me that it is taking 30 days now for them to read the emails. I asked him how would I even know if the emails went through. He said that as long as a persons email has not returned an email error message it most likely went thru.

Then i asked again about My I-129F (for the K3) that was approved 3-4-2014 and sent to the Consulate. He could not find any record of that petition at NVC. I have also tried NVCReserch and after 30 days wait they emailed me that they can not locate the I-129F. I have also Email the Chinese Consulate (5 days wait) and they can not find it there either.

So after 15 months now of USCIS and NVC only to find out they do lose petitions completely (just no answer for you) I dont trust any of this.

I was planning to call NVC and ask another supervisor the same questions. But maybe some one else who is waiting to see if thier ENROLL went thru may want to try that for thier case.

I've been thinking this as I followed this thread lately, too. There's so much negativity here recently and much of it comes from obsessive phone calls with long wait times and less-than-charming operators. I don't personally understand why multiple calls per day is a good use of time, simply because knowing a status for example 6 hours sooner than you might've won't make any difference to your case processing. Obviously it's a personal decision, but I feel bad for everyone involved -- both on our end and NVC's. This isn't pleasant for anyone.

I know NVC is staffed by call center personnel who are paid to provide customer service, but they aren't government employees. I can't imagine they have rock star salaries and they probably get treated like garbage all day. Hasn't anyone on this thread worked in customer service? Even if the job tasks are easy, it's challenging dealing with people all day. It's exhausting and frustrating. They're humans and imperfect just like the rest of us. They're also not responsible for the case processing decisions (i.e., reviews and checklists) driving everyone insane. I've spoken to all the operators who have been named here and have never had a bad experience, so to see them essentially being bullied in absentia is a little unsettling. I kind of wish I'd had a bad experience at some point just so I could know where all the negative comments have come from. They're paid to do their jobs to certain expectations, yes, but I personally feel a responsibility to be a good customer to the people serving me. I've never felt someone being nasty to me was justification for being unpleasant in return, though I'm keenly aware that others will feel differently. Perhaps if folks made fewer superfluous phone calls, the operators would be less overwhelmed, their quality of life would improve, they would be happier while serving their customers, and hold times would go down.

I know VJ is an awesome place to vent and commiserate. I'm really thankful for that, and that's why I hesitated to volunteer my own unpopular opinion above. I just wanted to maybe add some perspective, because I feel things have become a bit more hostile than usual. I really wish all the best for everyone waiting here. I know the hell we've all gone through and I wouldn't wish it on anyone. I hope all of you get the news you're waiting for soon.

Every little step forward is worth celebrating!

Thank you for this! Adorable!

I miss our puppy so much. We adopted her from the local Humane Society when she was about 5 months old. We chose her birthday to be in May, so she'll be 3 next week. After spending practically every single hour of every day with her for 15 months, I haven't seen her in 18... We won't have kids. She's our "dog-ther". My husband sent me a little video of him picking her up from "daycare" this week. Before I got out of bed this morning I watched it four times! Yeah... This wait is so hard in so many levels. I'm thankful for this group, that makes things bearable!

[TM713 63]

I called NVC for the first time tonight. I only had to wait 20 minutes or so. Our case was received on May 12, 11 days after our NOA2. I will call back in early June for a case number.

I hope no one is facing major hiccups. Congratulations to the recent case completes and interview dates!
