I can't believe they are changing this process now! I'm glad for those coming after and it makes A LOT more sense, but sheesh! I wish we could have submitted everything at once!

http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/english/immigrate/immigrant-process/documents/Submit_documents.html

Isn't it terrible Molly we were screwed each and every step of the way. Just isn't fair, I'm sorry just isn't, we deserve a break now more than anyone else. :((F) (L) (F)

Yes, it makes sense to send AOS and IV documents together. :thumbs:

However, you won't be able to send the AOS package while waiting for the IV fee invoice so you'll probably end up waiting longer if you get a checklist for the AOS package. :wacko:

In other words, you'll wait for up to 60 calender days for the IV fee invoice; then, send your AOS and IV documents and wait for another 60 calender days. If you're lucky, you get a CC in 120 days (4 months) from getting your case number. :dead:

If you get a checklist, you'll wait for another 60 calender days (total of 180 days or 6 months). If you get a second checklist, you'll end up waiting for 8 months at the NVC stage. Getting stuck at NVC for 8 months would be a crime! :bonk:

Edit: I see a sentence: "Please allow 15 days for the NVC to process your DS-261 before continuing to the next step." http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/english/immigrate/immigrant-process/approved/Step_1_Choose_an_agent.html Maybe you'll receive the IV fee invoice in 15 days from filling out the DS-261? If so, it'll definitely save a lot of time! I had to wait for 40 days for the IV fee invoice. :cry:

OMG ok in that case I take it back. YIKESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! Hadn't thought about it in that way.

NVC's Mondays are even slower than their weekends, if you could believe it! At least we get some delayed emails during the weekends. :girlwerewolf2xn:

Their delays are now encroaching on their post-CC processing. Several applicants with CC were not assigned interview dates during the last scheduling round. Even sending cases to Consulates is impacted. I was assigned an interview on August 29th and still my case is stuck at the dispatch room.

Do you have the interview date yet? Hoping you have second copy or originals to take to your interview but then you an expert at it. :) Insha'Allah soon. (F) (L) (F)

Guys my AOS scan date is 31st July... I did not receive the 60 day review time email from NVC...

Has anyone else with a scan date between 25th to 31st July received the 60 day email? Concerned if I am the only one left out?

My last scan date is July 31st. I received the 60days email for my AOS but I didn't receive it for my IV package. But I think the 60days email doesn't matter if you receive it or not because NVC will still quote 60days for you whenever you call them.

Don't worry they are an equal opportunity organization they screw most of us letter or no letter. Letter/e-mail.

The new procedure of submitting documents will make more sense if they can release both AOS and IV bill at same time.

**** I was thinking maybe once NVC gets the case files from USCIS, NVC should automatically choose the petitioner as the agent if the case does not have a lawyer attached to it, because majority of the beneficiary always choose the petitioner as the agent. It will safe a lot of time been wasted and also reduce backloggs**

Totally agree. In fact, that what they did for me... auto-assigned me as agent and added a note on CEAC that I could contact them and change agent if I wished. That is currently their standard procedure for my particular visa category. I don't see why it couldn't be applied to all categories.

Do you have the interview date yet? Hoping you have second copy or originals to take to your interview but then you an expert at it. :) Insha'Allah soon. (F) (L) (F)

I'm always prepared... you should've known that by now. I even have original duplicates of all submitted originals. My motto is... never send anything in the mail that couldn't be replaced.

On the other hand, I doubt the embassy would go on with the interview if the case file doesn't arrive in time from NVC. There is still time yet, so I'm not concerned.

Just sticking my nose in but I believe our friend MoBar65 has an interview date of 1st October. Can't wait until we finally get out interview dates. Won't that be something to celebrate.

Your nose and the rest of you (and your kids... and your husband) are most welcome my dear lady. I'm praying that September would end on a very high note for all my VJ classmates.

I recently heard about mailing AOS documents and IV supporting documents in ONE package. But I haved Fedexd my IV packet day before yesterday and it will reach NVC on 10th September 10.30 am (estimated time). Our AOS scan date is 19th august. Would this affect our case too because its written on their website " After you collect your Affidavit of Support form(s) and financial evidence in Step 4, and supporting documents in Step 5, you must submit all of the documents in ONE package to the NVC. Your case may be significantly delayed if you fail to submit all of your documents in one package." I am worried now, I hope they don't delay our case.

What does this mean for those of us who have paid AOS but not IV and sent only AOS? :(

I have same question as SharksBelow:

-what happens to those of us who already submitted AOS package and are waiting for IV package?

-for EP: hey want ONE package AND it cannot be more than 5MB? How do we do this?

I wish they consider 60 days waiting from the first scan date like in our case its August 19th :D :D Just wondering, this change recently made by NVC might reduce processing times significantly.!!

4/10/2014: Put in a ?service request with USCIS starting with OVP to locate case.

Just sticking my nose in but I believe our friend MoBar65 has an interview date of 1st October. Can't wait until we finally get out interview dates. Won't that be something to celebrate.

That's right you just triggered my memory, I have so much on my mind it threw me for a loop for some reason. I have to know to do my special prayers a few hours before the interview. :) Ty doll.

On the other hand, I doubt the embassy would go on with the interview if the case file doesn't arrive in time from NVC. There is still time yet, so I'm not concerned.

Your nose and the rest of you (and your kids... and your husband) are most welcome my dear lady. I'm praying that September would end on a very high note for all my VJ classmates.

Yes I do know better because I'm the same way. Trying to get my husband to get original duplicates but he has such little time to travel right now. Actually he doesn't have much time to sleep. :(

I recently heard about mailing AOS documents and IV supporting documents in ONE package. But I haved Fedexd my IV packet day before yesterday and it will reach NVC on 10th September 10.30 am (estimated time). Our AOS scan date is 19th august. Would this affect our case too because its written on their website " After you collect your Affidavit of Support form(s) and financial evidence in Step 4, and supporting documents in Step 5, you must submit all of the documents in ONE package to the NVC. Your case may be significantly delayed if you fail to submit all of your documents in one package." I am worried now, I hope they don't delay our case.

I haven't been to the website but I thought all of this was starting Sept 12 Th. Just my opinion but I would think at the beginning they would allow for mistakes or errors but they are so special God only knows. Why not give them a call and ask? (F) (L) (F)

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?

PCC has a validity, my PCC states it is valid for 6 months,but the consulate website says PCC is valid for one year. If you get PCC now, you are good for an year.

2/19/2014: Documents received by husband.

3/6/2014: After 367 days, NOA2.

4/2/2014: Write to NSCFollowup to know about the status of the petition.
4/10/2014: Put in a ?service request with USCIS starting with OVP to locate case.

yup thats me..received my case number in just 9 days after nvc received it :D

Congratulations on getting a speedy case number, looks like NVC has improved further, I got mine assigned in 13 days, that was in July. Previously, it used to take 30 days to get case number assigned.
