The NVC Moral Support/Ranting Thread

[Molly&Juan 90]

Well done guys. That is great news. One step closer.

Thanks so much! It does feel good to have one thing complete.

It's so great that you have been to Whidbey Island. It's so beautiful here, especially in the summer it's almost ridiculous. I was just at a wedding on Orcas Island in the San Juan Islands which is just north of Whidbey. It is so amazing and worth a trip next time you're in town!

Congrats! The biggest hurdle is over for you since most checklists are on the AOS package.

I noticed that your AOS package arrived at NVC on July 21st. Was your scan date July 23rd or 24th?

Thanks!!! Such a relief!

Good question about the scan date AustinCanada! It is of course more complicated than it needs to be since it deals wight the NVC! It arrived on July 22nd and that is the date on the 60 day email, but it was "scanned" on the 23rd. I was told by someone that the date we go on is the date on the letter, but who knows...

Hope that helps!

Called NVC this morning about the false checklist. Spoke to Jim. He was very nice. He confirmed that they haven't looked at it yet and when that false checklist was generated somebody just hit a button on Singapore Certificate but probable didn't read it. Incompetent or what!!!!!

Let's get all these CC this week. I think some of you may be leaving this thread this week and I am very happy for you. Probably won't be anybody left to send me happy little emoticons by the time I get a CC in October. Oh well, I will be happy just the same.

Hugs for a good week.

What is wrong with NVC staff? They should be sued for the psychological trauma they put us thru. Am glad its been sorted out, don't worry Msc, we'll still be here for you. Edited September 16, 2014 by EOC4ever

Oh man! I've been gone at a wedding all weekend at a place with no internet! I feel so out of the loop! I'll try to get caught up on everybody's progress, but wanted to update you guys that our AOS was reviewed and accepted with no checklist! Thanks Saylin and everyone! I knew to call because I got a false checklist for the DS-260 which became available on Thursday night, but I had to leave Friday morning and I have been basically off the grid. Which was kind of nice for a break, but I don't want to miss out on what's going on with my VJ family!

Hoping for good news this week for everyone!!!

Congratulations :joy: greatest NVC hurdle crossed :Dance: :Dance:

Now fingers crossed for a CC.

I just called and they have reviewed my IV package but they are saying I didn't provide my original marriage certificate...when I did!

Where am I suppose to get another original from? :cry: :cry:

Noo! I can't believe they make us send originals out - I am so nervous after seeing this - Ours is the same, translated marriage and original signed by the Iman. I would have to go crazy on them if they lost mine and you should too, I would keep calling until someone on the phone started looking through everyones desks to sift through and find that important document. -- Did you clip the case # and IIN to the marriage certificate? (as in sticky note it?) -- I just want to see how effective marking the numbers are.

Totally call again and complain and complain and complain...someone needs to get off their butts and look.

Waiting (im)patiently for all of the CCs this week!!!

Hubby had his medical yesterday and it cost $580 Australian with vaccinations (he needed flu shot, whooping cough and one other I forget). They asked if he felt faint after the blood test and he said “I haven’t seen the bill yet”. Ha ha

Today he booked his flight to Sydney for the interview. We decided I will stay home to save the cost of my flight and also he is flying up at 7.30am and returning at 8pm, so a looooonnnnngg day to ask someone to babysit 3 kids that need to be dropped off/picked up from school, kinder and swimming lessons.

I will be a nervous wreck during his interview since I am a control freak and won’t be there!

Good luck with the interview - as long as the hubby knows some questions about you and marriage! (hopefully after the long trip he won't forget

Thanks! We have been married almost 12 years so no worries about him knowing about me or the marriage. Lol

There was one person (khaag) who got CC today on the other forum. I believe the scan date was July 22nd.

[EOC 440]

No news about CC yet. NVC are always slow on Mondays, I pray they speed up real quick this week.

Edit: just saw Austin's post. Ok there was one CC. But NVC needs to speed up and move to July 23-July 31.

lol 12 years! Congrats - that also clears up any nervousness forgetfulness as well..after 5 years I think they should start asking stuff like "what's her biggest pet peeve" or "what is one thing you never clean up after yourself that makes her mad" -- they'd be able to answer those things like a pro!

I am from Western Washington too! I have been in Australia for 12 years and miss all of the green. Can't wait to return in a few months :-)

Olympia? I'm planning to move to Seattle! When? That question goes to NVC!

[Soloenta 2,218]

Update guys: I got a checklist for AOS package, part 6!!!

Scan date: July 22

This is so not right, I can't believe our lawyer screwed us like this... my husband & I have been apart for almost 5 months now and another 60+days apart are unbearable, so I will be waiting those 60 days with my husband in Mexico, God willing... I thought he would be home with me by Christmas, look like I will be home with him!

((((((((((Mvelaz)))))))))) Just don't have words to expess how unfair and cruel this whole thing is. I'm so very sorry.

[Soloenta 2,218]

Thanks for the support everyone!! I was so excited to get some good news today but oh well.... I called my lawyer and he said he hasn't received any email from NVC, neither have I , hope to get it soon so we could start fixing the mistakes... ughh :'(

Can you copy and paste it here so we can see it, just remove the important stuff, case number names etc? Thank you in advance.

[Amanda4964 202]

Olympia? I'm planning to move to Seattle! When? That question goes to NVC!

That is great! You will only be an hour drive away. I used to live in downtown Seattle!

I grew up near the coast in a small logging town called Hoquiam (you have to drive through it to get to Ocean Shores, blink and you would miss it). My parents still live there, but not much prospect for a young family looking for jobs so we have chosen Olympia as it is only an hour from them and also is the state capitol and since I have a few years of local government experience, I am hoping to get a job with the state.

We will be coming up to Seattle a lot for sports/concerts/culture I am sure! Also, my dad's family is up north in Mount Vernon/Burlington so we will pass through Seattle (slowly in I-5 traffic) to visit them.

We can all organise a Western Washing VJ reunion once we are all settled in 2015!!!

OMG what is wrong with these people, did you speak to a supervisor if not you need to call back and let them know it was the original SOB! God I hate them!
