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 oper

Hey all!

I'm from the September filers group, and we were just contacted by NVC yesterday by email with our NVC case number and instructions on the AOS form and fee as well as information on filling out the online DS-261 form. Getting excited here! Things are coming along! Good luck to all!

Congratulations and welcome to the NVC stage!:) Have you read Saylin's wiki and all the links in the first post yet? :idea:

Okay, so our AOS package looks like this:

[...]

What do you guys think, do we have everything covered?

Do you have anything to support your employment or schooling plans? I'm sure there are many things that could be added to the domicile section, but that's the first thing that came to mind for me (someone who hasn't focussed on the topic since we don't have that step... so take what I say with a grain of salt :rolleyes: )

Do you mind sharing with the group what this was about? I quoted the person you were responding to also but accidentally deleted it and I can't remember what page it was on haha. But I know he/she mentioned AOS checkboxes.

So on the I-864-- were y'all talking about the checkboxes that have to do with whether the sponsor includes one year or three years of tax transcripts? There is that one box that says "check here if you include only one year" and on the next page the optional part where you can check the box if you're including the other two years...I was going to have my joint sponsor check both boxes since he's including three years of tax transcripts. Is that right? That part of the form is weird and needs to be updated.

Or were you talking about something else? Thanks!

they were probably discussing how people have gotten checklists for leaving some blanks in the AOS form, even though the instructions clearly state to 'leave blanks' if not applicable... so most folks have chosen to add 'none' or 'N/A' in empty spaces, or put for example 'same as above' in the "mailing address if different from above" line.

And yes, check both boxes if including 3 years of transcripts:)

GUYS, I REALLY NEED HELP!!

What the hell is going on with my case, I spoke to a tier 2 just a couple of minutes ago, he said that our case is out of his hands obviously and when I asked if it was sent to NVC yet he said no, it's being sent to my embbassy and they will contact me for an interview. #######? Is this normal? I really don't know what's going on....

I wouldn't worry yet, as I've seen a lot of strange things happen in the time between being sent from USCIS to NVC... and neither location seems to be able to guide folks as to where their case is or what the details might be on the situation.

You could always try calling USCIS again (suggestions on this forum include repeated calls and taking the general consensus when there are differing responses)... or you could wait till next week and try again... or maybe someone else here has some other information that is more helpful on the topic :hehe:

"If you are not willing to learn, no one can help you. If you are determined to learn, no one can stop you."

Called Lawyer and they verified that they sent to original birth cert.... Called NVC back and talked ot Jean.. She put us in for a supervisor review because I challeged them. It is absolutely the original. It is just really old looking. It has the stamps on it and the numbers of what book and page it is recorded at the registry. Also a second page with more stamps.

I am sending my husband all the way to San Jose tomorrow just to get a certified copy just incase and I will send it again !! #######??? and Jean told me I don't need to get it translated since its going to a spanish speaking embassy.. ( not sure I will believe her but they have the original translation in the original package) Not too sure about what they are telling me . Jean told me they are not even finished reviewing the package. So maybe they will see a supervisor request and get it done all in one shot. She did tell me Supervisor reviews take up to 30 days ( but doesn't everything at the NVC?) I'm so angry. This is a joke. They have to realize that every country is different. Not all birth certs are pretty like the United States.

Hey it doesn't take 30 days. I think the supervisor review has the same turn around about 2 weeks... That day I called (04/23 I think) and they said I sent the wrong birth certificate. I asked for a supervisor review (not knowing that my husband did give me the wrong birth certificate even though I told him which one I needed ?) I sent the correct r birth certificate the next day.... Received email about the check list on 04/24...I received a second checklist for the birth certificate yesterday 04/30.... So I think that may have been a response to the supervisor review? Maybe

Calling NVC now. Evidently I do need to send in proof of emolument even though I'm abroad and everyone here and in NVC has told me differently. Also, I was told there were "questions" about IV packet as well. Wonder if it's the same as lovemytico- about birth cert.
