I did a while back.. All she did is yell..and all told me she doesnt know anything when I asked if Oct scheduling has started, and I have an interview date yet..and asked me to have patience.. I wanted to yell back saying waiting 19 months after marriage and living apart from my husband is that not having patience ! :(

She was so rude, but I let her know I was definitely NOT having that. haha

Maybe she's one of the new recruits. I guess she needs proper training.

She seemed VERY new. When she first started speaking, I thought she was a recording by the way she was talking so robotically to me.

Well here's the bull. When I called and spoke with NVC a couple of days ago the rep told me I got checklisted for the Russian police certificate. The rep did not tell me that it was received. All this time I thought it was missing. I spoke with Betsy the supervisor and she told me the translation was incorrect. My husband was rushing when he sent the docs and did not read the translation. Not realizing a first grader could have done a better job. The fool spelled Moscow, Muscow. It was so obvious it was done poorly. My husband went to the Ghana language institute and went nuts. He confronted the man who did the translation. The man was a drunken fool. So I decided to have the document translated here by a American company. I have learned my lesson. Not to have important paperwork done in Africa. NVC received our new documents this morning. I hope we don't have to wait too long to get our case closed.

Medical done today. Dr. Lyndon Mascarenhas was very nice and quick to the point. Lab and X-Rays in the same building. We recommend this doctor for Canadian VJers. The parking flat rate of 10 dollars seemed expensive as we needed to park for an hour or so. There is street parking but it was full.

We received the notice from NVC with the case # and other details but the Benificteries name appears like this < Full name, FNU, > My first name is shown as FNU and the surname Field shows my Full name. Its because on my indian passport , the field for surname is empty .

I was told about this issue earlier by a friend , so I got my passport reissued with proper break up of the name . Surname & given names filled in appropriately. Now i would like to know how can i Update the same in my Immigration docs so that FNU is removed from my name

What you need to do is email NVCinquiry@state.gov

The subject line will be your case number

In the body before your request, you list the petitioner's and beneficiary's names and DOBs.

You then request the name change for yourself and attach a scanned copy of the biographical page of your new passport.

It might take a while, but they will reply to you saying they have updated the record. I had to do the same thing when someone spelt my name wrong in an email (but it turned out to be unnecessary - it was just one stupid worker not reading properly ;))

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".

April 2018 - August 7th 2018: Tons of service requests, emails and now senator involvement to get my corrected green card back because what the heck, USCIS. Also some time in May I sent a letter to Potomac telling them I want to withdraw my I-90 since CSC were handling it.

August 8th 2018: Card in production thanks to the direct involvement of Senator Sherrod Brown's team

August 13th 2018: Card mailed

Our I864 was scanned on July 11 and received a checklist today. But it was about I should send IV package including a police certificate and etc.

We received same two messages.

We have sent IV package already and so this is a false checklist?

We will try to call NVC to check if our AOS was ok but if someone here knows plz let me know. Thank you:)

This is really terrible. I was hoping to have a CC in 2weeks time. But with the way NVC is stuck on not exceeding beyond July 11 packages since last week, I don't know when they will get to July 31.

I hate weekends since this immigration process started. And to think that NVC won't be working on Monday is another heartbreak.

I agree, although I'm just dreaming I have a way to go with this 60 day c r a p! t1940.gift2615.gif

Just spoke to a supervisor Betsy. Very nice lady! Confirmed the checklist it's indeed just for those two corrections. I told her about the sponsor household size and she said that what I m saying sounds correct but since she can't look at the form she can't confirm. And that since we have another tiny box anyways(she actually apologized that how small it is and easy to miss lol) so just make sure that the part 8 adds up all the above numbers correctly. We put n/a where it asked if we are married, what did u put guys who got recently AOS approved? I want to make sure this time there isn't any mistake.

My computer crashed and I lost everything a couple of weeks ago and I don't remember. Wish Jsummer was here he would know, both are a great source of knowledge. :D So hope the others who have gone through this can help you girl. No more Check lists for you!
