I didn't say people weren't entitled to vent. Venting and taking out our frustrations on other people are two totally different things.

I vent all the time. I'm tired, frustrated, burnt out and just fed up with everything. And seeing NVC hand out check lists like Tic Tacs just sucks out all the energy.

I see your point.

Indeed, I fully anticipate some of those Tic Tacs thrown at me soon and the eventual need to do my own venting. Last week, Kuwait authorities refused point blank to issue me a PCC citing that they only issue it to citizens if convicted of a crime and after they serve their sentence!!!!! And they denied me the courtesy of putting that refusal in writing. Meanwhile, they have no objection to issuing it to resident aliens regardless!

I mean... what do I need to do? Slap a cop?

I can only hope that NVC is aware of this attitude and will wave the PCC requirement in my case. If I ever get a case #, that is.

Thanks for sharing this info. US Consulate Mumbai had this requirement for quite a while, at least for a year that I have been checking their website. Actually, one needs to take the DS-260 confirmation page to the VAC appointment (fingerprinting) where they stamp it. Then you submit it at the consulate.

No problem! Saylin also updated the wiki to reflect this updated information. :)

Yeah, sorry, but nowhere in the I-130 instructions or on the USCIS site did it suggest to send an I864 along with it. Perhaps it is the use of AOS as an acronym that confuses people, as those people filing from within the US do file the I-130 along with an AOS (adjustment of status) - a completely different process.

Dirk, this was my situation too! :idea:

If you had your case number on the document, pray they will track it down, as they DID find my police certificate and gave me case complete only 3 working days later. See my signature. My advice would be to sit tight for a few days.

It's optional, and I went with snail mail. You can compare my timeline/signature to others who went with EP.

Then don't use assets/rental property information, just income :)

interesting situation... did you get a checklist for your PCC? still waiting on a checklist to see specifically waht the issue is

I wonder if I will get the e-mail about the checklist for AOS package today.. I need to send the bar code cover sheet with the response right? I already know what I did wrong

my checklist was emailed like 12 hours after I found out about it over the phone. I sent a revised AOS 2 days after the lawyer sent the incorrect AOS and I used the original bar code page. Just write a cover letter and mail it off. If they are going to play games then you can just mail it off and get it received so you don't have to waste time. At least that is what I would do

Hey guys,

So I already informed Saylin about an update to the NVC site, but just a heads up to everyone: The DS-260 confirmation page is now mandatory to bring to the interview.

On the NVC website, it states, "After submitting the Form DS-260 online, print the confirmation page. You must bring the confirmation page to your visa interview."

More information can be found here as well as an example of the 260 itself: http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/english/immigrate/immigrant-process/documents/submit.html

For EP applicants, apparently, "If you provided the NVC with scanned copies that you submitted via email, you will be required to present the original documents at your interview, along with a photocopy of each document." I didn't know if people were already aware of this information or not, but that is found here: http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/english/immigrate/immigrant-process/interview/prepare.html

^ If that's the case ... what's the point of EP if you have to provide original documents anyway? Doesn't that defeat the purpose or am I misinterpreting the information?

Thank you, I had no idea, great information tytytytyty :)(F)(L)(F)
