Is the below message the thing you are supposed to print out and show to CBP at your POE? I'm a little confused about what to show that proves the $165 Immigrant Fee has been paid.....

This is not something CBP cares about or will ask. It is not a requirement to pay fee before POE so don't worry about it.

The brown enevlope and your marriage license in hand and passport is all you need at POE.

Congratulations.

Approved yesterday (July 2nd) at the Paris embassy! Yay! Finally! After almost 14 months of process.

It went very well. The consulate officer really asked me only one question (how did we meet?). I was expectating a few questions about the wedding, our families or about our jobs but no. Just one question. I won't complain!

And now it's over! And my husband and I will be reunited July 24th, finally!

Good luck to every one still waiting!

Hey Guys, I just received this email. I was hoping for an interview date, not notification that my case is complete (I already knew that). Does everyone receive this email?

Dear Sir or Madam:

The National Visa Center has received all documentation necessary to complete pre-processing
of your case. As soon as an interview date has been scheduled, the applicant, petitioner
and attorney (if applicable) will be notified.

The applicant should NOT make any travel arrangements, sell property, or give up employment
until the US Embassy or Consulate General has issued a visa.

The US Embassy or Consulate General may require additional documentation at the time of
the interview. Additional documentation requirements if applicable can be referenced at
the following URL: http://travel.state.gov/visa/immigrants/info/info_3742.html

Sincerely,

Director
National Visa Center

I tried calling nvc yesterday and my case was completed on 24 and I received the CC email on 1st. However they have not yet sent the packet to India, mumbai consulate. They said consulate tells us about the slot and then we send the package. I am confused, how does this proceeds, when I will hear about the interview date.

It won't get sent until an interview date. You will hear when your place in line comes up. Usually its a month wait from case complete. I moved you on list from 7/1 to 6/24. The 6/25 is important since you get assigned according to case complete date.

okay so serious question about us before interview..

We filed tax return as Married Filling joint without my wife SSN or ITIN number.

we didn't file ITIN number coz it was too late for us now.. And IRS already accepted Tax return.

So if they ask question about my AOS what should my wife tell them at Interview?

Question might be like this,

" why you don't have ITIN number in your join tax return?"

OR

How you file Join Tax return without ITIN number ?

Dang how in the world did you do that. I need to do mine and no ITIN and all that stuff.

Did you just wrote NRA? I say with IRS being in such chaos do whatever.

And whatever she answers is fine. I doubt they will ask. It's America taxes they won;t bother her.

Hey Guys, I just received this email. I was hoping for an interview date, not notification that my case is complete (I already knew that). Does everyone receive this email?

Yes. Looks like all of us 6/26 CCers are getting that e-mail today. Essentially, without calling, this is how we would have been notified that our case was complete, but they don't state the actual date of completion in the e-mail.

Well, let's hope they can follow these emails up with an interview assignment today.... It would be nice to have that before the holiday tomorrow.

Is there a benefit to calling? Is there a delay between when they set up the interview and when they send the email notifying us?

I was told that there was an expedite request put on my interview, but I'm not seeing them move any faster than usual. I guess I shouldn't be too surprised. Maybe they embassy will give me an earlier date due to my expedite. Not counting on it. Knowing my luck in this process..... my file will fall out of the plane on the way to Montreal and end up in the Saint Laurence River, where it will be eaten by a whale as it drifts towards the sea.

I am calling for personal reasons - I want to be in the UK a week after my husband's visa interview and hopefully be able to fly back with him; therefore, I want to be able to buy my airfare ASAP because prices keep skyrocketing for London. As far as I'm aware, the e-mail won't arrive until 5 days to a week after the interview is assigned.

And ... Best of luck for getting an earlier interview!
