NVC Filers - June 2014

[ColGil 126]

Is anyone familiar with how long AFTER the IV Fee e-mail from NVC does it actually show up on the portal as payable? It's been 2 hours and there's nothing available to pay.

I think it varies, mine took about 35 mins. Just keep refreshing and it should be up soon

Actually I've been trying to call for the last 20 mins with no success.. Busy tone all the time! First time I've redialed for so long

Do I need to enroll my case at NVC by sending them an email with both husband and I contact information?

Is it normal for it to look like this? Where it doesn't even show anything under applicant name or any other information. It's been about 3 hours now, I'm not exactly worried but I've heard 30 minutes from multiple people and never anything else.

She was in a hurry to hang up.

Welcome to the thread and congratulations getting the AOS paid and it took be about that long to show paid also.

Yes it's taking a long time of late look at my timeline, I'm still waiting for the IV fee to show up.

It seems to vary and make no sense at least to me why but some said that USCIS is taking less time to accept the I-130 thus

flooding NVC. Who really knows. I also hope NVC will speed up but wont hold my breath.

Good luck to you and I hope this thread proves helpful to you.

Thank you for the sweet welcome message!

This thread moves so fast and it's pretty hard to catch up haha.

But there are many usuful information for NVC process and I'm happy to be here.

My husband says I should wait with no stress.

I know I should enjoy the rest of my life in Tokyo because I will live in America for long time from this year for sure.

I know this visa process sucks, but I should not to feel stress since this stupid and annoying visa process will be done this year for sure:)

That sounds crazy we have to wait for a month to pay IV fee.

But well I will try to wait until the day comes.

I'm going to Hawaii to spend vacation with my husband this weekend. He is coming from LA.

I've been to LA for 3times during my I-130, and this is the first time to go to America after NOA2.

I hope I can enter the US without any problems..

Good luck everyone!

Thank you for sharing:) so you sent IV package before you paid IV fee?

[alejandreska 136]

Okay so after 50 Minutes on hold I didn't get any news... Amanda told me to call back next week. She was nice.

I won't be calling again until Friday, unless I receive a checklist (either fake or real) or my AOS fee changes to N/A on the website...

I was expecting something today since two people from the 16th got CC. Oh well, I just need to be a little more patient

Good luck to everyone else who's waiting

I sent the IV and AOS package as soon as appeared as PAID.

I read several times and followed Saylin Wiki step by step.

I was just going to ask the same thing

[JayBabay 29]

As soon as what appeared PAID, the AOS Fee, or both the AOS and IV fee's. They both need to show paid.

Both fees, I got both invoices together, my case is IR-2 for children, also I bypassed the choice of agent because I hired an attorney to fill the i-130

AOS and DS230 Showed as paid on 5/20

Did you get an email from nvc stating you got invoiced IV?

[CBanksRN 34]

Which I can not handle. I'm calling them back right now. This is not right.

I'm in the same boat...Not right at all! My revised I-864EZ (Not-so Easy) was received on 5/23/14 and scanned in 5/28/14. Still nothing.

Called my senator's office and they got the same rhetoric "It is under review." It's BS, because page 4 of the full I-864 instructions say not to put "N/A"

So I put N/A on everything this time...Watch me get another checklist. I'll keep you posted.
