Thanks... I hope so. The flight we're taking should be the first one landing at Dulles, and it usually has very few non-USC passengers on board at this time of year.

I think almost all of them also had mid-late august scan dates for other items that were skipped over when nvc started reviewing all documents together by last scan date. I still think nvc decided this wasn't the best way to go about it and is going back to review their packets together regardless of last scan date. Just a theory though.

I think you got it spot on smile44... I've been closely observing all CC's of late and there seems to be a clear trend with all these random September dates... Like you rightly said, I've noticed that almost all these Sept scan dates that have been worked on, also had a mid-late august scan date. I'm pretty sure NVC is reviewing packets together even for those few left out before the new policy of sending both packets together was announced. Technically NVC is still working on the last week of August.

People like me, samreen23 etc who have just a single checklist with Sep scan dates will have to wait until NVC completes the late Aug scan dates I guess. Just my 2 cents...

So that means there is a chance that NVC got more efficient and found a way to look for and retrieve particular mail in order to process the AOS and IV packages together if they were sent separately. :thumbs:

I hope NVC finds a way to look for and retrieve checklist documents in the future so it won't take 50-60 days. :whistle:

i have an interview and got the P4 letter in the ("important reminders") tab i found this
"IF a sponsor filed an I-864 (Affidavit of Support) AND provided the NVC with proof of an IRS Federal Income Tax Extension in lieu of a Federal Income Tax Return, the applicant must bring the sponsor's most recent Federal Income Tax Return to the visa interview"
------ does it apply to me?
I already sent the most recent ones to the NVC, and don't understand why i need to send another copy to them.

pakistani friends please help me

They are talking about people who filed extension of taxes and hence did not submit recent transcripts to nvc. Like if someone submitted 2012 as the most recent year and with it submitted extension then they have to bring 2013 transcripts to the interview. If u submitted ur transcripts then it does not apply to u. Correct me someone if I m wrong.

I think almost all of them also had mid-late august scan dates for other items that were skipped over when nvc started reviewing all documents together by last scan date. I still think nvc decided this wasn't the best way to go about it and is going back to review their packets together regardless of last scan date. Just a theory though.

I also thought that pattern was true before but than i saw a few cc with one package of very early aug like 11 aug and other with sept. Also a few with only package of sept date. The other thread just reported a cc with scan date of 5th sept for a checklist. Maybe they are reviewing checklists faster who knows. Praying hard for this week to be my week!
