LOLyesthe NVC thread is daunting. :D i still get nervous when i see it!!!! :(:D:yes: . I am not out of NVC..yet..until i see the tracking thing move and my papers are at the Montreal Consulate.

Facebook pages..eh! they are good.

I think most people from the November thread would have moved onto the NVC stage, at least by now, if not all the way through. I remember by the time i got the I130 approved about 40-50% had it already approved and were moving to the NVC stage. Fingers crossed!!

Just went over there, still two left. Poor Arise, been almost a year :(

hi cc date was on 09/03/14 and as of yet no interview date! I have called several times and they told me no open slot available for now so I should hear something first week of Nov. For interview date in December. Do you guys think the interview will likely be in the first week of December? :(

:wow: is the Bangladeshi embassy having such a big backlog or something? You've had your CC for almost two months now and they still don't have an interview slot open? :bonk:

Hi,

I got a CC on Oct 17, and my status says "Ready." NVC says that my case was sent to the Kyiv Embassy and the embassy will be scheduling my interview, because I have an expedite. Does anybody know when approximately the embassy is going to schedule my interview? I called them, and they said that I need to wait for some kind of email... What is this email and who is it from? It has been over a week since my CC and I heard nothing from anyone. No CC email, no interview email? When do any of them come? Like everyone on this thread, I am very tired of waiting and silence...

My timeline for NVC processing:

May 4, 2014 Submitted DS261

May 7, 2014 Paid AOS fee

May 12, 2014 Received an email confirming that my DS261 (agent registration) form has been processed

May 15, 2014 Paid IV fee

Last scan date: July 22, 2014 NVC received my IV and AOS packages (mailed together), date confirmed in the email on Aug 5, which also told me that it will take at least 60 days to process

July 25, 2014: Submitted DS260

August 6, 2014 Requested an expedite

August 8, 2014 Got an email from NVCExpedite asking for two phone numbers

August 8, 2014 Responded with two phone numbers

August 15, 2014 Received an email from NVCExpedite which states: "The US Embassy or Consulate is willing to expedite this case once we have all the fees, forms, and documents. We received documents for your case. Please allow 60 days for us to review your documents."

August 15, 2014 Called NVC, the rep told my husband that while the Embassy has agreed to expedite my case, NVC will still take at least 60 days. The reason that NVC cannot do it any faster is because they cannot sort through all the mail to locate my case.

September 16, 2014 Got a checklist for a divorce decree, the original of which I submitted. They said it needs to have a stamp, even though it was issued by a US judge, whose office confirmed that their original decrees do not have stamps. [/background][/size][/font][/color]

September 29, 2014 Mailed a copy of the decree with a certification and stamp attached to it. The judge's office in Lancaster county, Nebraska, said that this is how they certify their documents. They still do not put stamps on originals or copies themselves.

October 2, 2014 Checklist scan date

October 17, 2014 AOS fee changed from "paid" to N/A

October 20, 2014 Case complete confirmed by calling NVC.

Have been really busy and traveling back and forth so haven't had time to post my normal rants on here recently... :)

Just wanted to update the thread that the USEM in London has rescheduled my wife's interview to Halloween. This is really helpful. It feels great to finally be dealing with real people who have actual beating hearts.

I haven't looked at anything regarding the courier options and payments or ELIS. I guess that's next on the list of things to figure out...

I'm the USC petitioner. My wife is British (now a USC!!!), generally awesome, and amazingly patient.

Congrats! You'll get to be with your wife 3 weeks earlier :) I am glad they're not all heartless robots. Good luck for the interview!

Congrats! Finally some good news and things happening "faster" than expected for you!

I am not sure if you saw my post but it turns out in Canada they won't move interviews earlier unless it is for extreme health or humanitarian reasons :( Oh well, my interview is a week from Monday anyway now!! :) :) Good luck to you and your wife on Friday!

Question for the group-

Is it quicker to pick up your Visa from the Courier Service or have it delivered to your house? We don't mind paying the $30 fee for home delivery but were wondering what is the fastest? Thank you.

I suspect it might depend where in the UK you are?

I remember reading about a few people not getting notified when their packet/passport was ready for pickup a couple months ago. With that in mind, I decided to pay the 30 bucks for delivery even though my wife lives in London.

It's not clear to me if the delivery courier will put the packet through the mail slot or if they require a signature.

I'm the USC petitioner. My wife is British (now a USC!!!), generally awesome, and amazingly patient.
