I feel all left out now cuz I didn't get it :lol: my AOS checklist scan date is aug 15th.

My scan date is either August 15th or August 18th and I haven't had anything either :P don't worry. I know my package is there because it was signed for!

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".

Dear Soloenta,

I am speechless after reading your post. How is this possible?!?! Holding a good thought for you and for a speedy CC. Stay strong and dont give up faith that things will work out at the end, even after a delay. . I try to type something to console you and there is just Nothing I can say that will make sense in light of what is happening with you, NVC, with all of us and NVC.Praying we are all out of this hell hole very soon.

I was at the airport yesterday meeting my in-laws, who came to visit us for a month. We waited for about an hour and I had a chance to people watch. I watched the eyes, and happy faces, and the smiles of people seeing their loved ones, and I couldnt help it but get teary eyed. This too will happen to all of us very soon: we will take a rush trip to the airport to pick up our husbands, wives, mothers, and maybe just maybe the joy we feel while hugging them for a first time will heal the pain we feel now

Spoke to Reese and what a B she is said I DO NOT HAVE A CASE COMPLETE that it's under Supervisor Review to get it complete and can take up to 30 days to get this done. But she didn't think it would take that long.

I called again right away and spoke to Torry nicer but of no help and said the same your case is not Case Complete and it's in the hands of a Supervisor asked if I could talk to them the obvious NO we are not in the same department and they don't take calls.

This is the reason I hesitated to say I had a Case Complete, right now my heart sank to my feet and all I can do is sit there and stare at the VJ page. I should have known better but of course I let my guard down and let myself believe this was almost over with. God only knows how long this will take a day or weeks. God be with us all. :cry:

Even to those who are lurking and happy to see this, I wish you no harm but a speedy process.

We need to take to the streets.

No CC!? :wow: Sorry to hear that! :cry:

If I were you, I would call them everyday trying to talk to a supervisor. I suggest that you call them in the morning and try to speak to Supervisor Sylvia. :idea:

I had no problem talking to a supervisor. I talked to Supervisor Sylvia, Octavio, and Ike when I was trying to get the IV fee invoice. NVC operators transferred my calls to them without any hesitation. :star:

I remember jsummner waited for a supervisor to review his case for 30 days. He got impatient and finally called them up and demanded that he talked to a supervisor. Then, he found out that nobody was reviewing his case! I believe Supervisor Sylvia finally took care of it. :thumbs:

Yea supervisor Sylvia unlocked my IV fees after like 60 something days and then supervisor Ike helped me with my marriage certificate.

Sylvia is usually there in the mornings and Ike is in the evening, around 4 to 5 PM.

I really can't believe to the levels they can go to torture us. They have no limits whatsoever.

Yea I think it depends on the supervisors. Supervisor Ike helped me with mine, he sounded very nice and calm. He was very professional and although he asked me to wait the entire week, he literally had it sorted by the next business day.

Our experience in getting a supervisor on the phone was like drawing blood from stone :D and the one supervisor we finally got was like "meh, don't care". It's funny looking back, but was really distressing at the time x.x I hope we don't have to do all that again with my IV package.

You can say that again! I so despise nvc as much as uscis. Sometimes I feel nvc does this to discouraging people from immigrating.

Thanks my dear, and remember to keep the faith. The end is very near.
