:dancing: :joy: :dancing:

AND, I must have good luck - I never had to speak to either Joy or AH-thur!!!!

Jim was the bearer of good news. He didn't even ask me "What can I help you with this evening?". He cut right to the chase and told me the case was complete!

Then, when I gently pushed, he read me the standard line about interview scheduling and it depended on how busy the consulate was, blah, blah, blah. But he told me he loved being able to tell people good news!!!!

Now....waiting on interview scheduling....

For those of you waiting - it does appear that an "N/A" under "Affidavit of Support Fees" is a positive indicator of case complete. My package explaining that the checklist item they wanted was 1) not required and 2) not available was scanned in on May 9th.

IV fee has NOTHING to do with the AOS fee. It's been 10 business days since you submitted the DS-261.

Those that got IV fee, how long have you been waiting?

:time:

IV fee is based off of DS-261 acceptance and has nothing to do with the AOS.

I see May be that's the reason why you received an early email for IV? Who knows? In any case, that's a great news. Congrats!

I know that. I am comparing my 261 and AOS date to his dates to estimate a Time for my IV invoice. Past May 11 NVC is very disorganized and unpredictable. From 4-5 days MAX between AOS to IV in April to 2-3weeks in second half of May.

Him and few others getting IV invoiced today is very good news!
