Confirmed, called NVC. Rosa answered after 45 minutes.

CASE COMPLETE AS OF TODAY, SEPTEMBER 30!!!

The reception was poor, but thankfully she didn't hang up. She confirmed case complete, but that interview hasn't been scheduled yet.

All glory and praises to the Lord that NVC was smooth without any checklist. Big thank you to Saylin, this forum members who were helpful in sharing their experiences so I could avoid a checklist and got to give one to the lawyer for partly filling up the I -864 right. After 20 months since this process began, done with NVC. NVC stage took 3 months because we had a lawyer. NVC received both packages on August 7. Best of luck to those waiting for case completes. This will be my last NVC thread.

They are both scan dates but since NVC is currently reviewing packages together they may used the August 6 or the 22nd to review your case. Your best bet is to call them cause they are already reviewing the 6th since last Thursday so you may have a cc already.... :)

Thank you.?

I already called nvc and they have given me the usual 60 days spiel. So I guess I maybe looking at 22nd as my scan date.

Ok, I need an honest answer. Do we need an immigration lawyer? I am feeling overwhelmed by this process. I am still compiling AOS/IV packets...my husband has not been as helpful as he could be, I have been doing most of the research and figuring out how to do this whole process. I finally got him on board to take this seriously in helping me...but I feel he has a bit of an arrogant attitude...that because he is Swedish he is a "desirable" immigrant.

But the truth is we have black marks on our case. The worst of which is he was traveling in the US last year without a proper visa and got caught...put in detention. The woman who dealt with his case released him without charge - she said He was "not a criminal, and the least of their worries", he flew home to Sweden...and then was denied a tourist visa a few months later...our i-130 was already in process- so they used that as a reason to deny. But I feel that we will go through all this effort & expense and be denied. My good friend made me see the light tonight. She is an Australian married to a US citizen. She said we were insane to not have a lawyer...especially considering his "black marks"...I am now agreeing with her. I have written my husband an email that he will wake to in the morning. I am asking that we get a lawyer. If everything was perfect, it would still be difficult. If there is one thing I have learned on this forum, is that a lot of innocent and good people are caught in this process, and they don't have the "black mark" that my husband does.

Please, any advice would be welcome. Thank you.
