NVC Filers - June 2014

[Deep35472 130]

Where have u neen Deep ??? welcome back!!!!!!!

Hey,, How are you ?

I was busy with making Medical and Biometrics appointment while Wife is studying her final exam for Nursing. ( Also, helping others in Facebook page )

I called more than 100 times to schedule a medical for my wife and Finally, they picked up my phone after 8 days.

seems like NVC got flue from uSciS now..

30 days for each step.. Seriously ?

some interesting reading as we sail through the weekend....

She mentions the NVC processing times...

Interesting reading, LoveMyTico. When do these sessions usually occur? I'd love to ask some questions!!!

My attorney sent us a copy of the interview letter, even though she knew we got a copy too. She asked if we had any questions, and I asked her about bona fide documents to take.

But knowing she is an AILA attorney, and knowing that she actually wrote the how-to-for-lawyers book for the AOS and IV forms, I asked her two questions...

1. How does the Adjudicator's Manual get changed? Especially when I know there are errors?

2. What can be done about the disparity in what the I-864 instructions say and what NVC checklists (leave Place of Residence blank if the same as Mailing address issue)?

I will report back if she has any solutions. Those of you whose cases have been affected by clear NVC errors (like W-2s for people working overseas and my case - PCCs required in error) - maybe we can make a difference for those of us who come later.

Hi Sukie happy to see you posting. So what is the problem with "leave Place of Residence blank if the same as Mailing address issue" ? People have been check listed for which one or both? Which one do you fill out and which ones do you not fill out? Ty

Lets define what NVC means by 30 Business working Days from the date NVC scan in your received mail.

Weekend , Holidays, non working days(due to inclement weather) are not considered as part of the thirty(30) Business working days. Thirty Business working days do not equal to 4 weeks. So this means any calls before the twenty Business day will gain you nothing, but disappointment.

There should be an initial call to establish your mail scan date, than the 30 business working days count should begin. At the time you are within the 20-25 days, a weekly call can help put you into prospective as to where NVC maybe at their processing time.

Anything else means you are causing the phone time backlog, and those who really have need of assistance are unable to get in cue. This also causes backlog within the adjudication of the documents that are in cue for review.

Hence this adds to the backlog problem, which than put your documents at the 30 working business days for review.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

FYI! My case became complete 6/10! Docs scanned in 5/13! Good luck to everyone waiting!

Yay!! Congratulations to you too!!!

So... my wife (Shanelly) (her nickname), called back for the supervisor she spoke to yesterday, explained to her the statement is there about the UK doesn't provide W-2's, only P60's, saw both were there and removed the checklist.. .

Now we can relax and have a good weekend. Will probably call back on Monday morning just to make sure it was removed though. (Can't trust them all at once can we?! .

Thank goodness that got straightened out!!!!!

Just a quick shout out to the V J family. In one hand I have my wife's hand, in the other hand

I have my sons hand and strapped to my chest for safe keeping is a lovely Visa to USA for my wife.

Below is the packet we received from the Embassy. Just got back into Bangkok. Will remain here until

We depart for America. Hanging out by the pool with the family, eating spicy food and trying to catch

up with where everyone in the VJ family is in their journey now that I finally have high speed internet.

You're sorely missed here Changnoi! Congrats and Live and Prosper

does a false checklist for the IV mean that your AOS is approved? I worked late this past week and missed the window to call. I have already sent the IV packet and i know its a false checklist but I was wondering if anyone else had a false checklist for the IV then actually received a real checklist for the AOS. I have seen a signature here or there says "False IV checklist = AOS approval" is this correct? thanks.

Hello, I sent my I-601A and DS-260 on monday, how long does it take to get approve? Thank you

[Dwipal 50]

I think mail can only be delivered to NVC Monday through Friday so your express mail should arrive at NVC on Monday.

However, rumor has it that NVC employees are working on Saturdays. So I'd assume they should be able to receive mail on Saturday. Maybe Mail Receivers don't work on Saturdays (or the rumor of NVC employees working on Saturdays is not exactly accurate)?

my mail didn't get delivered today. It said business closed. USPS will try to deliver monday

Hello, waiting for IV invoice and anyone know expedite request for NVC. What happens if they approved expedite request.

Please share your info.

If you don't want a checklist, then you have to either write N/A or just write the same address in "Place of residence"... DO NOT leave it blank!

The wiki says it's optional.

-Employment letter of petitioner (optional, but good proof of CURRENT income)
