[Molly&Juan 90]

Well ñoña that is just terrible I'm praying you get CC this week, this whole thing is so frustrating! Big hug for you.

Well thanks Lady!!! But I'm not waiting for a CC yet... That's you silly! I just want my IV fee!

My AOS scanned date is July 11. got a check list today saying this

______1 - IMMIGRANT VISA APPLICATION PART 1:_______________________

The National Visa Center received your DS-260 form. We are waiting for the traveling applicant’s

supporting civil documents to be submitted to the NVC. Your online Immigrant Visa Application will be

reviewed upon receipt of your supporting documentation.

To view which documents the applicant must submit to the NVC, please go to our website

Looks like a false checklist is that the whole thing? Mine was long and it was false, anyone think this is false/real? Hehehee

Don't worry about it Koko it's just NVC trying to confuse everyone I received one and a few others did also. I did put in a request a million years ago but the others did not. One person called checked the address and it was the same one thank GOD. So if you want call to make sure.

Omg this people are nastyyyyyy

Ok this means that they open the iv package to review it ???

[Molly&Juan 90]

Just to update, I called back and got a different rep. She was super duper nice and said that they are changing over to this process. However, my documents were all sent in prior to that so it would not effect me. But she did say that now they are starting to review all of the packages together, instead of going through one by one. She said the new process initiated due to the confusion generated via checklist when people already had sent in the stuff. She said now they will be looking at reviewing all the packages together and beginning the 60 day mark at the last scanned package date.

I hate to say it, but this makes sense to me to review it all together, but to wait for the 60 days on the stupid last package is ridiculous! Why can't they just review when all of the paperwork is there.

So with this new process, I guess there is a benefit to sending the IV package before the IV fee. Get the 60 says started ASAP.

ARGHHH!!!!

[Soloenta 2,218]

Haha!

You and me both! I didn't realize your scan date is July 25th, too. We're all in this together -- you, AustinCanada, and me!

Yup indeed, there is a group of us with July 22 and 25 waiting and if there at July 11 I wonder how long it will take to get to us. I think they only do one a week. <-------walking toward our files.

What do I need to fill in EDUCATIONA INSTITUTION in DS260? Just the highest educational attainment or do I need to include elementary and secondary?

Hi guys / Saylin.

I Have a question, I've been noticing lately that there are some signatures that have more "updated" info vs. NVC stage SS.

is there a time limit of inactivity on SS that will get you "removed" from it?

btw I want to encourage everyone to update your info on SS as it provides valuable statistical information that is useful to all of us and newer users (I'm sure everybody knows that already and I'm preaching to the choir but I wanted to get that out there)

Happy Monday!!! have a great week everyone!

By SS, do you mean spreadsheet? If so, then when I go through the non case completes (which is every month or less often), if the person hasn't logged on in a month, then I remove them from my spreadsheet.

What do I need to fill in EDUCATIONA INSTITUTION in DS260? Just the highest educational attainment or do I need to include elementary and secondary?

Secondary and up.

Thanks Saylin!

I have never said this, but you make my day with all these emoticons...thank you for being super cheery!

Awwww thank you so much what a sweet and kind thing to say. Ty

[JeffInMX 157]

Cannot wait to see my husband from tmr:) I will visit him again in the us because of this ridiculously slow visa process.

My AOS scanned date is July11 and have not received anything(checklist) yet. Maybe this week?

Hope all of us here(especially who have waited from last summer) will finish this visa journey soooooon.

You should be hearing something really soon!

I did call them back and the other rep said they are changing over to that new policy for reviewing multiple packages but she said I shouldn't be concerned since mine had come in earlier. She said the policy change was in effect for the current packages they are receiving.

So it's kinda bad news for the people sending stuff in right now, then again you never know how and when NVC changes it's policies...but from what she said, going forward they will start your 60 day mark for the review from the date they get your last package in. So if you were to send one package a month late, your 60 day will start from the later date and you've pretty much wasted the first entire month. :(

That's interesting information-- I'm not sure it makes any sense though, the way they described it, because they claim not to know what packages have been sent in, so how will they know which is the last? In my case, for example, I am currently waiting on review of both the IV package and an AOS checklist. But if they were to checklist my on the IV (heaven forbid) I would then send in a response, possibly before they get to the AOS checklist, which is almost a month later? Or maybe they want to take the first two packages and then issue any necessary checklists? Seems like there are too many variables to explain it in such a cut-and-dried sort of way.

It'll be interesting to see how develops...
