NVC Filers - October 2014

[samreen23 461]

First we were screwed by USCIS for 10 long months and now by NVC for 8 long months... This nightmare over the last 18 months has just withered down most of us completely.

At this moment I can only hope for some miracle to save us, and I just wish and sincerely pray that no other new IR1/CR1 visa filer should ever have to experience what we've been through.

NVC please have some mercy!!!

Yes! I can't believe we r still stuck at this stage. First two years of marriage people are the happiest and it was the opposite for us I m praying this week brings some good news! Please Nvc!

P.S. We should take this convo to the ranting thread!

I think your plan makes sense. It will be nice to compare as many timelines as possible so just one would be great. I guess on the November thread start letting people know the plan to phase out (I know you've said that, but make it very clear) then hopefully more people will join! I never really look at the other one anymore.

By the way, my AOS changed to n/a yesterday. Last scan date is debatable. I was told they scanned my IV package on Sept 2, but they received it on Aug 29, and I've been told both dates as my "scan date" by different reps. I'll put in for an update after I get an official confirmation by calling in the AM. If it's true then I made it through with no checklists and literally could not have done it without you Saylin, and the rest of the VJ family. I really don't know how people do it without this community. The NVC should contract with you to create new instructions and save themselves a lot of time and energy! Can you imagine if the instructions for these forms ACTUALLY worked to fill them out correctly? It would be a miracle!

Thanks again for all the help and support.

Hi Molly&Juan

I didn't congratulate you at the weekend. That is wonderful news about your CC. I am a 29th Aug checklist scan date so I really hope to see that CC in next couple of days.

Hi everyone, we are joining this thread now!

Our AoS and IV packet were received on 24 October, and we received an email from NVC on 25th October that they have the paperwork and it will take 60 days to review.

Hoping it goes through faster.

Good luck everyone!

Yes. We are so unfortunate in this process it's unbelievable mine is sept 10 or 11th though ( both dates given by representatives) so the max they can drag me is 2 weeks more. Then I can officially yell at them but I was praying for dec interview which seems not very likely due to Nvc suddenly getting slow. God it keeps happening to us.

NVC is getting ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas and New Year. Don't expect much work. People tend to be lazy around the holidays, I myself are guilty of it.

Hello my fellow and experienced NVCers!!!

I hope everyone is well and surviving the wait!

There may or may not be an issue with my case. I thought that i could pay the AOS and IV fees one at a time. But after I paid the AOS, the IV fee says 'PAY NOW' but when I click it doesn't let me 'SELECT' to pay.

Now that NVC has changed their process, does anyone know if we still have to wait 30 days for the IV fee to be available?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Then they should realize that their 'laziness' is what's stopping families to be united together on the same holidays. Their jobs don't involve machines, it involves human beings. They don't have the right to be lazy. Specially after what they have put us through

Its my 4th month in NvC

52day out of my 60 days honeymoon vacation at NVC

I pray we all get case complete and get off NVC island

Generally the AOS and IV fees are only payable at the same time if you have a lawyer have not needed to submit the DS-261. For people without lawyers, once the DS-261 is processed the IV invoice will unlock for payment.

Nothing we can do but pray to Allah and hope for the best. I was expecting a Dec interview as well looks like with the change of processing its looking more like January. Going to be missing our anniversary and wife's bday. Extremely frustrating,... i hate the feeling of not being able to do anything whatsoever. Cant even contact my congressman/woman because they are just going to say well that's within normal processing time.

exactly how I feel this is the worst and my husband is from DR those ppl party everyday. at times like today I feel like giving up. and NVC and USCIS they need to put themselves in our shoes hire more ppl, do something because we are paying even before getting married.
