NVC Filers - July 2014

[SliderMK 3]

Yesterday we mailed IV package without paying the IV bill, we put the AOS barcode cover sheet and today we got checklist that we need to pay the IV fee which is still not available on the website. This could only mean that they review the documents the same day they receive them, they just choose not to do anything about it.

This could only mean that they review the documents the same day they receive them, they just choose not to do anything about it.

Can you post the checklist? I'm assuming it was a false checklist based on them reviewing your AOS package and that it has nothing to do with the IV package you sent.

[Jag & Ripu 23]

Saylin, my wife sent an email reply for I-864 checklist on June 10th. She also talked to two supervisors on June 9th to find about the status of the checklist email that she sent on April 30th. NVC maintains that they did not receive her April 30th emails. She forwarded the April 30th emails to two supervisors (Lisa and Octavio) on June 9th and 10th at NVCEnquiry.

She called yesterday and talked to another supervisor, who told her that there are three emails in the system for review (dated June 11, June 25 and July 11). Ripu however sent only one email to NVCElectronic on June 10th and forwarded her April 30th email to these supervisors at NVCInquiry on June 9 and 10.

This supervisor, yesterday told her that she cannot get a case complete until NVC reviews all these three emails in the system. Her case should be completed if NVC reviews only one email of June 10th.

Is it true that NVC will wait till all the three emails are reviewed? This will push our cc by almost one more additional month.

Would they not complete her case with the email that she sent to NVCElectronic on a June 10th? We have no knowledge of what these other two emails are as she did not send any email on these dates.

Kindly advise.

This is in the checklist. We confirmed that AOS was reviewed and accepted

You think it's a false checklist?

Congrats for paying the IV fee last night! You sent the IV package today!? That was fast! Not wasting any time!

Thanks. Yea don't want to waste any more time or delay myself. The IV package was set and ready to be sent, all I was waiting for was the IV barcode sheet. The fee showed as paid few hours and the package has been sent in. The DS-260 have also been unlocked, will fill and submit it today after work. Edited July 24, 2014 by EOC4ever

Not sure if it was a typo while writing the above post, but the correct email should be NVCInquiry, an i not an e.

Anyways, not sure about those two mysterious emails. IIRC, I think it was LoveMyTico, but could have been someone else, they also had mysterious mail logged in their account and I think they ended up discovering it had something to do with a supervisor adding a note or that their review counts as mail. I'm a little hazy on this as it was a month or two ago (which means like 10000000 posts ago, haha). I do remember that there was some connection to supervisors though.

Now, whether it's true they have to review the other two "pieces of mail", I don't know. You may just have to wait and see what happens after they review the AOS checklist.

You think it's a false checklist?

Yes, if you called and verified the AOS package was reviewed and accepted, that's what this "checklist" is based off of.

There's nothing to worry about as this is normal of false checklists. Just continue to keep an eye out for the IV fee for when it gets invoiced and pay ASAP since if NVC receives your documents before the bill appears as PAID in their system, there may be a delay (and a possible loss of documents).

Thanks Saylin. Yes, it was a typo. She sent to NVCInquiry. The supervisor yesterday was very rude and did not want to listen. She insisted that Ripu would need to wait until NVC reviews all the three emails in their system. We both had same checklist and replied using same computer from our different emails. My case file is complete but for Ripu it has become a never ending story.

This supervisor had no knowledge of AOS fee status changing to N/A once the case is completed.

Yep, it was me !!

If they have all documents for your file, they will give you a CC. If they send a response to your inquiry, that will show up as an unidentified piece of mail. I can't tell you how many times they would tell me there was still mail that had to be reviewed when the last piece of mail I sent was scanned on May 8th. If you ask for a supervisors review, the response they send to you will show up as an unidentified piece of mail too. If you sent 3 emails, probably there are a few unreviewed pieces of mail. They will tell you that all mail has to be reviewed before a CC but its all a lie. Don't worry !

They drove me crazy with the amount of supervisor reviews they did on my file. Probably the reason for the unidentified pieces of mail. The DOS is super disorganized. I used to call 3 times a day to keep up with the progress. I didn't' trust anything they said and I wanted to be on top of a problem right away so I could fix it ASAP and not waste more time.

Read LoveMyTico's response below

And don't bother mentioning anything about AOS fee changing to N/A to indicate case complete. They won't know that. That's just something us VJers have noticed

Thank you 'LovemyTico'. Your post has been of great help and also a stress reliever.

We hope they give a cc after reviewing the first email.

Thanks Saylin. We hope they review Ripu's first email and give a cc. It has been stressful as we have waited too long for the resolution of this checklist.

'sup fellow VJers. Got approved yesterday, just coming in to say hi. Still a long road ahead for NVC and I gotta do much reading on NVC process.

Honestly , they don't care about the emails. They have to attach them to your file. What they care about is if all the documents are there. If your email is explaining why the document is not there, you will probably get another checklist or if you are really lucky, they will give you a CC and you will have to bring the missing item to the interview. Did you request a supervisor review?

Sorry if I am asking a question that has already been answered...,.
