NVC Filers - August 2014

[Sdg612 7]

Your hubby is the petitioner, eh? And you got a checklist on your AOS package, eh?

If so, I don't think they need to have your hubby's proof of citizenship since you sent a copy of that in your I-130 application as you mentioned.

I'm confused too!

So our lawyer has spent 3 hours reviewing the checklist and reviewing our AOS and there aren't any mistakes. He is confused and we are confused. We called NVC ans were on hold forever and we got through and rep hung up the call! Anywho, our lawyer said to contact the local congressman. My hubby will be emailing him asap about this entire process....

NVC is just a total waste of precious time. Since the embassy has the final approval, there's no need for NVC doing document collection because they tend to frustrate people's life, issue checklist for the silliest thing and waste several months of our life. Documents should be submitted to USCIS or taken to the EMBASSY at the time of interview.

Congratulations!

I hope this means they're done boycotting the Aussies

My friend's case just completed today 8/12. Scan date is 7/03.

My brother told me I got some mail from NVC today, another false checklist for the DS-261. They're really bombarding me with this >_> what's weird though is it's physical mail and not an email...

I actually got an email too yesterday in response to an old email I sent asking for the IV invoice. In that email they again acknowledged receipt of the DS-261 and told me to complete the DS-2610. It's just so silly and for someone not up to speed with their quirky systems, can cause a ton of confusion. All of this is redundant anyway because I've done it all.

Yes, I hope so! Hopefully the person who reviewed yours has mine in the same stack. Maybe they needed someone who speaks "Australian". haha.

So happy for you! Can't wait until my cc too!

Hmm, just realised I didn't enter my middle name into the given name fields on the DS-260. I wonder if that will be a problem?

Checking in!! We have an AOS scan date June 18th and received a false checklist on August 1st for the DS-261. I called the NVC and was told 60 days from the scan date.

So I was going to call and check if case number had been assigned yet when I got home from work. NVC beat me to it though and I got an email with the numbers in it. Got home went to ceac and was able to fill out DS261. They said I should be able to pay fees in 3-5 days. I know about all the wait times and all of that jazz but for right now I am totally stoked.

[purpleblush 16]

Just called and confirmed from.NVC that our IV was already accepted scan date June 26. I hope two weeks from now they will be able to review our AOS scan date July 17. Praying for a case complete no checklists please.

Im starting to have falling hair and sleepless nights because of stress from NVC.

Hi guys!

So, NVC received our case on July 22nd (I discovered on a call on July 28th). In 9 business days - July 31st - we had our case # assigned, AOS bill and DS-261 invoiced (we discovered through email NVC sent my husband, who was here with me in actually, spending his summer vacations)

We paid the bill and completed the DS261, and the AOS package he'll send tomorrow (he arrived today in the US, and didn't have all his info here in Brazil to send in the package).

My question is: is it normal to have the case # assigned so fast and the AOS bill invoiced right away? From now on are they "slowing down" with us because we had a "fast beginning"? I must confess we're both excited (I wasn't expecting anything from them until the end of August) and scared (why did they send it so fast to us??),so it would be nice to hear if any of you had a similar experience or just an opinion to give.

They open at their 7am, so try an hour later

Sorry it was my mistake:) Tokyo 8pm is their 7am and it takes only 10-20mins to talk to them for me:)

NVC don't open their phone lines until 7am which is when I usually call. I've never waited more than 20 minutes calling at that time, generally only 5-10 minutes wait at most.

Sorry it was my mistake. Tokyo 8pm is their 7am open time:) i can talk to them easily but nobody wont help us for the iv invoice.
