NVC Filers - September 2014

[dilmera 124]

Hello everyone! I just had a question, OK so I've been told that the only difference of having an attorney on our case is that we get to send in both AOS & IV packets together, does this mean my scan date (07/22) is valid for both? Or do I have to wait 60 days for one and then 60 days for the other one? I called NVC yesterday and they said my packet has not been reviewed yet but that it SHOULD be reviewed in these couple of weeks because it is 60 days MAXIMUM? ---nervous&anxious--- ???

If you sent in both packages together, they will be entered into the system on the same day and both will have the same scan date.

Hi all - quick q for you. I was check listed for my i864 (I supplied my 1040 tax returns as my 2013 tax transcript wasn't available - as well as two other errors in my AOS package). I am mailing off the correction today but I am going to amend my i864 form to reflect my new address in the US (I moved to the States in between time of mailing original package and checklist) Do you think I need to resubmit my proof of domicile evidence (everything indicated I was intending to move the date that I did - they already have it all on file from before)? All it said for my portion of the checklist was submit 2013 tax evidence.

edited to say: I asked this on a separate post but I really want to send this off asap (and my kids are wrecking havoc on my concentration) so I was hoping you knowledgeable folks might know!

Hey guys I am preparing for IV packet and it includes

1. Bar Coded Cover Sheet
2. Original Marriage Certificate
3. Original Birth Certificate
4. Original Police Clearance Certificate.
5 Beneficiary Passport Copies.
6. Photocopies of all the documents mentioned above.
7. Beneficiary Photographs

Am I missing something or If anything else I should mail them? and few more queries

1) I am sending them originals but I want to get them laminated (God knows if they handle these documents with care). So Just curious to know if anyone who sent them original laminated documents and faced any issue?

2) Do I need to write Case no, Date of Birth and Name at the back of photographs?

3) Is it necessary to write Case no on all the documents including originals because I don't want to write anything on originals? Shall I add sticky notes with case number or any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

I admit, I have been growing a bit tired of reading VJ posts day after day, only because there is no moving forward with CC and advancing scan dates. 07/11 is all I have been seeing for more than a week now. So just for kicks and giggles, I decided to look up reviews posted by ex-employees of NVC on Indeed.com. Below is the link. Of course, we all expect a sweat shop, but some of the reviews reek of racism referring to our loved ones as “desperate people trying to immigrate to America.” I’m petitioning for my elderly mother, the only family member I have, who for over a year is waiting to be reunited with her only child. Desperate to live in America? Not at all. Wanting to live with what is left of her family. Heck yeah! But those schmucks at NVC don’t see our loved ones as family severed from us and awaiting to be reunited.

Well, that’s my gripe for the week. I feel even more depressed than I was few minutes ago. Check out the link if/when you get bored. Love ya all!

I read these reviews as well, and the "desperate" part made me laugh out loud! While we weren´t desperate before, 12 months of waiting and fighting over ridiculous checklists will certainly do that to you! I actually wasn´t surprised at all that that´s what they think of us

LOL! We have almost matching timeline for NOA1 and NVC last scan date. I sure hope our time o’waitin’ are over soon. I got a “Desperate Immigrant” bedroom at my house that is tired of being unoccupied.

hy guys....i havent posted much but i am just so frustrated i needed to vent....called NVC today waited on hold for 50mins and got disconnected.... i dexided to call again and waited another 50mins to hear the 60day story :'( this is redicious..... they just have to look at one piece of paper!!! i got a checklist for my marriage certificate :-((((

hope NVC picks up the pace! cant take this anymore!!! i was hoping for an OCTOBER interview but looks like that is not happening....i wish there was something that could b done for future applicants that are trying to bring their spouse legally and pay their share of tax and not to mention these NVC fees!

Hi

On my marriage certificate its written True Copy . Will it be a problem? Thts what my Marriage registrar provide Its exactly like Original with even passport size photographs of me and my wife but written True Copy over it.

Did you face similar problems

Thanks

Woohooo!! ? congratulations!! What was your scan date? Did you have a checklist?

No, I didn't get any checklist.

Well, just the false one. Actually, It was a relief to recieve that one.

I´d say only send what they specifically ask for. NVC workers are easily confused, so you´ve got to make it simple for them

Hahaha yes, I hope we´ll be out of NVC soon! I wish they were as desperate to get rid of us as we are to be done with them... then maybe there wouldn´t be so many crazy checklists. My husband thinks they get a commission for every error they find

So we completed the ds261 on July 12th and my wife phoned the NVC last Friday 29th August asking how much longer it's gonna take so they said they will pass it on for a review.

My wife called the NVC again today and they said the ds261 was reviewed 2 days ago (Tuesday) and that our IV bill will be any time now thank god!!!!
