Hello guys i need urgent help, plzz some one answer it for me.

In Ds260 there is a question: (note: i was refused to get us visit visa in 2012)

Q: Have you ever been refused a u.s visa, been refused admission to the united states, or withdrawn your application for admission at the port of entry?

What should i answer here? Yes or no?

Since you were refused, you must answer "Yes"

Yes. 15 days. Let's hope I will be able to countdown as well - however, remember he said *around* which for the NVC could mean the next day or an additional 30 :huh:

P.S. still not able to access the site - weird. Need to check some other computers around the house and phones. Crazy that we'd be hopeful that they are fixing something to make it work easier.

Nvc is quite on schedule recently.. 15 days after ds261 was met for my case..

My parents in law sent out the IV package that I had sent to them for safekeeping along with the doc cover page and receipt so the NVC should receive that on Monday.

Then we just have to wait for checklists or CC. Hopefully the latter. We feel that we were very careful but that doesn't seem to matter sometimes.. All we can do is hope!

AOS received 26 July

IV invoice & Paid 24 August

Checklist for DS-260 received 16 September

DS-260 sent 22 September

IV civil documents received 24 September

Disappointed they must have reviewed my AOS on 16 September and saw that I had not completed the other steps yet. I was still working on the old process of do one bit and then the next. They were obviously ready to look at my AOS and use the new process of having all of the documents ready. Bummer.

So I guess I have to wait for them to review my DS-260 before they even look at my AOS and IV documents?

Don't feel guilty about the way you handled things. The checklist you got for DS-260 was maybe an indicator that they looked at and actually approved your AOS package. We received a false checklist for that too. Our AOS was approved on 9/24 (scan date: 7/31) and although they had received and scanned in the IV package on 8/14, they didn't review them together and I doubt they would have in your case - unfortunately. So don't worry about it. But you could try to call NVC and ask if your AOS package has been approved because those 60 days are surely over ;)
