Just filed out the DS-261 form and went to the fee page (I know its to early still). Is it normal to receive this message?

Very normal!

You will be able to pay the AoS fee soon, may be Monday or Tuesday. You will receive an email when the fee is invoiced.

Lately it has been taking couple of days to be able to pay the fee even after you receive the email.

but it is very normal.

Good luck!!!

Sorry, I do not know the answer for this as we are doing Electronic Processing. You may want to read Saylin's 1st posting in this thread.

Not to sound facetious, Your answer to my question is that you don't know?

For the record, I have read ALL the advice, from the official websites of the State Department, Saylins advice here, and more-- a dozen times or more.

The specific question I am asking is NOT about logistics, time frames, or even requirements and AFTER actual reading that very helpful and insightful information the ATTENTION TO question that I am asking not been addressed in any of the "how to" posts.

Again my question is if anyone knows the difference between CMR and DR. that's all.

Well, I don't know the answer but I searched the threads for you. Some VJers answered that CMR is: consolidated mail room and DR is Delevery Room. I am not sure if these are correct answers.

Please see below the old summary page followed by the new one,

Its shows your progression through each stage at NVC.

The New Summary page leaves a lot to be desired.

Reference to DS-260 is not being used in the IV section.

Apparently there are some data migration issues also.

You gain access with your Case # and your Invoice Identification number

through the following link. We refer to it as CEAC. https://ceac.state.gov/IV/Login.aspx

Thanks Lakehouse! I was so sorry to see you got a checklist. We had one also. It really stinks. Especially when it's for something silly. I'm praying for you! :innocent:(F)

Thank you for that! :luv:

A friend from Morocco got CC on 12-May and yesterday they got their June interview, June -9 to be exact.

I hope this means that Casablanca still has a lot of capacity for the month of June and that we will get a June Interview also.

I can't wait for Monday and I hope we get a June interview also!

Good luck to all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope you get that June interview too!! :goofy:

Thanks for the link, as I too was only seeing the invoice and receipt page, or alternatively the page showing that I'm at the NVC...no matter how I tried!

I was just about to ask how to get there :secret::)
