Now calling NVC about my IV fee still being "In Process"...

[r060106 109]

Hey guys - what should I do? My wife's address has a "/" in the house number but the online DS-260 doesn't allow it!!!!

My wife's address has the same thing. What should we do? Anyone know?

They said we don't have to send everything again because the cover sheet it's the same. They also told us that they received our package yesterday (UPS delivered it on tuesday). And that we could complete the DS-260 since it was available even thought the IV fee payment was gonna be rejected.

Luckily our call was answered by this nice lady who was amazed but the fact that my spouse and I have the exact same date of birth.

Oh ok. My bank account has already had the money deducted, so I don't think I'll have the same problem. I hope you get it resolved soon.

So p***ed with NVC right now. I've just received a checklist for two police certificates - one UK and one Australian. And now they have introduced a fingerprint certificate for Australia which cost $170. I sent the UK police certificate with my IV package and a statement from the Australian Consulate website saying that the Australian Certificate has been applied for and will be sent direct to the Consulate upon interview. So they know this, so why the checklist? I have never seen or heard of instructions that I have to get a fingerprint certificate - has anyone else?? I'm going to call to see if I can get a case complete and then take the fingerprints with me when I go for my interview. I am so fed up with this process. ARGHHHHHHH!!

We had ours active immediately after the payment, also we had the cover sheets, and the status changed 'paid" in 2 days. Did you try different browser?

No, haven't tried that yet. What browser did you use? I've got chrome, but I'll try IE and firefox now.

Thanks!

Ok guys i need a suggestion. We recently got a checklist only because my husband left one space blank and didnt write N/A so seeing how you can get a checklist even because of such petty issues I was wondering if I need to send in a print out WITH MY CIVIL DOCS saying that according to travel.state.gov I do not require a PCC for Saudi Arabia OR Pakistan? Should I? Because we cannot afford any more delay we are already waiting for our consulate change email's reply since the 31st of march

SUGGESTIONS PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEE

Call the NVC and ask to speak with a supervisor. Ask them to request a supervisor review.. Same thing happened to me yesterday ! The supervisor didn't understand why they even requested a police certificate... THEY CAN'T EVEN READ THEIR OWN INSTRUCTIONS

Chimpanzees can't read...

Just wondering what did your husband leave blank so we can learn??

As for suggestions, yah you should print it out and highlight it so they see it! There's no telling what idiot is going to review your documents and send a checklist

It really is, I feel like throwing in the towel with frustration! I just spoke to a lovely lady at the call centre and she said that my UK certificate was not in the file. IT WAS!! She's put in a 'Supervisor Review' so 30 business days to look for something that was right in front of you all along #winning NVC.

IE (specially for them) and firefox, was no problem with IE.

Agent: Abby

Info: Called about IV Fee still “In Process”.

- Paid on Thursday April 24

- withdrawn from bank account on Friday April 25

- 5 business days, still “In Process” on CEAC (she said “In Process” same time as me, JINX you owe me a CEAC PAID )

- After muttering a bit and asking for my husbands correct spelling of last name she says she will have someone look at it and fix it for me…

- Asked if I need to email them anything she said No Ma’am, someone will take a look and fix it for you.

- Thanked her and she wished me a good day

I hope this clears it up!
