NVC Filers - September 2014

[harsimar0925 12]

I'm not sure but why not go back and change it now will only delay it one day. Most petioners like myself are agents of choice so if I were you I would go back and redo it now.

But WARNING don't go back after you fix it no matter what. Just fix it and forget about it or it will set you back to the day you clicked on it.

Go fix it make yourself the agent it's what most of us do.

But I submitted it already...can I redo it and make myself the agent even after submitting???

I remember reading something similar when USCIS was backlogged & a little after USCIS got way better (but inundated NVC ?) So im really really hoping things get better at NVC quickly. We've had bad luck with USCIS & even obtaining Police Certificates then NVC announced the 60day timeframe. ?

BEST OF LUCK TO EVERYONE & LETS KEEP EACH OTHER IN PRAYER SO WE CAN REUNITE WITH OUR SPOUSES ASAP!!

WOW thank you wonder if they still accept e-mails for NVC issues boy will they be shocked. But can't help thinking this might mess us up again further down the line. I hate to think this way but I'm tired of getting the worst of everything.

Yup I fall asleep praying for all of us stuck here.

But I submitted it already...can I redo it and make myself the agent even after submitting???

Yes you can submit it again just don't every click on it after you fix it. Go fix it now so it wont delay you. BUT NEVER CLICK ON IT AGAIN!

Hello people. Just so you know, I am not your age but by reading this thread I learned a lot about the NVC process! At first I thought my Mom petitioned me so I thought I'm F2A. Then my mom told me it was my step-father who petitioned me, not her. They got married before my 16th birthday. My mom left us (me and my older brother) to work in the USA. She's been there since 2003 or 2004. I was like 3 or 4 at the time. Last year she got married to an American and that's when she decided to get me. She petitioned my brother who is in college but her current goal is to get me first. The process started last year though I'm not sure which month. But now I know that she wouldn't be able to get me until next year. A month ago, she called me and said "I don't think I'm gonna come soon, I received a letter-" "Something about that it's gonna take 60 days?" And she was like "How did you know about that?!" Well, she was kinda shock I guess haha. I just told her I like browsing the internet lol. Well now, we are still waiting. She told me the NVC received the.. I don't know something about the AOS on July 25 or something. And that's it we are still waiting for another letter from the NVC. Oh God, please help me I want to be with my mom!

Question about the police certificate: my husband is planning on sending me his police certificate next week and it will take about a week or two to get here. after the AOS package, I will send all the documents required for IV package. How recent of a police certificate is required? is there a time limit?

I just read this today someone a GENIUS stated " think of it this way a USA citizen can travel/return to the USA because they are already US citizens" I Loved the way it was put. So no on all of them unless one is not a US citizen and their papers are in immigration process. But someone correct me if I'm wrong which I often am so be patient and someone will come along that knows best. Much luck to you.

Below is a very mild case of how CO's at the Cairo Embassy treat beneficiaries it's usually a thousand times worse making fun of the wives insulting in so many ways etc. It's frightening.

This was an expedite.

September 6, 2014 Embassy Review : My husband had his interview at 7:30am on September 1st. He arrived one hour early. They took his fingerprints promptly after him entering the embassy but then had to wait an hour before being interviewed. The consular officer was an American man who spoke Arabic. He treated my husband poorly from the start and told him his English sucked. The interview lasted only 30 minutes. Asked how we met, where I went to school and did I graduate, the names of my family members, very basic questions. The CO told my husband at the end he believed he was not telling the truth because of our language barrier and gave him a paper requesting our chat logs from Facebook since that is how we commonly communicate. My husband tried to show the CO more evidence he had brought with him but he refused to look at it. Simply told my husband "I want more" in a rude tone and ended the interview. We sent back the requested chat logs same day and our case has not yet updated to a new status.

It wasn't a horrible experience for my husband but it was not a real confidence booster to have his English made fun of and to be treated so rudely. Fortunately, we had practiced the interview beforehand and he knew it was likely he would get a tough CO. Rating : Poor

I received another checklist. Will I have to wait another 60 days when they receive my new documents? It's been 50ish days since they got my documents from my last checklist. Do I really have to start the wait over???

Oh no. I'm so sorry! Unfortunately, NVC treats checklist packages the same as any mail they receive. It's currently taking 35-40 business days for them to review incoming mail.

Is this checklist a second AOS checklist or an IV checklist? What does it ask for specifically?

I'm really sorry. I hope you will be able to resolve this quickly.

How is MCherie Jr?

Interesting call. Kendall was definitely about to fall asleep. She asked me who she was speaking with... twice... didn't ask if I was the petitioner/beneficiary. I asked if my IV has been reviewed yet.... silence.... silence..... "We received it on July 18th"....... "Doesn't look like it's been reviewed yet." I said ok, thank you. She told me to have a good night.

No robotic 60 days answer.... I think I prefer this call over the others.... minus the hour+ hold time.

Oh well, next week then.

Next week for sure!

Someone answered you already. You should mark "NO" because they're US citizens. Edited September 6, 2014 by Lyndon
