QUESTION RE IV PACKAGE:

I was looking through the Document Cover Sheet they provided (this is not the Bar-Coded Sheet), and noticed that it says to put the docs in the order they have them. So for me, first comes Birth Certificate and then Marriage Certificate, Photos, and then at the bottom it says to include Translations.

Does this mean that any translations (I am including for Marriage & Birth Certificate) should not be attached to the certified birth certificate and marriage certificate right? The translations should be placed on their own after the photographs right?

I'm just scared that they will see the certificates, assume there are no translations and give me a checklist. Anyone who has had to use this document cover sheet, can you enlighten me?

Its always safe to attach Translations along with the originals . It makes it easier for them to review...Thats how sent it ...I put All Originals and Translations together and then All Photocopies. It will be cumbersome for reviewer to know which translation is for which certificate

Thank you! That's my fear, that they won't know and here comes a checklist! Thanks again :)

One more question, did you staple your documents? For example, did you staple the entire AOS form? Staple each IRS Transcript/return, etc...? I know it's a silly question but you never know with them, that's why!

:wub: God's timing is always perfect. . . :star:"Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill his promises to her!" (Luke 1:45) ^_^

Hi everyone :) Happy to see CC's happening quickly! I have a concern... I just called down to NVC to check my last scan date and the rep told me it's October 3rd.

Here's my problem with that...

I sent AOS on Sept 4th, and NVC said it was received the 8th.

I sent IV on Sept 17th, was received on the 19th.

I found a mistake in AOS and resent the 22nd, was received the 23rd.

I have emails confirming all of these dates... now after the last package I sent he said they received another 9 days later, which gives me a date of October 3rd... but I never sent a 4th package? Nor did I receive an email with this date (and trust me i received a lot of emails). When I told him that he said "oh yeah it looks like one of the packages were entered by mistake, you only sent three."

I know a ten 10 day gap isn't a big deal, but in NVC time its FOREVER! Should I call again and confirm with someone else? Or is it pointless and I should just ride it out?

Thanks!

Same thing happened to me. I got different answers from different representatives. The only answer that made sense to me was that I sent an update request for my mother's name, and they usually scan the bar code to do that which explains the reason why I received the 60 days thing. I also called and requested to speak to a supervisor, and she asked me to call back on Monday, that she was going to get some info. on my case.

Hmm... did she call back? Did they get it figured out?

So, I'm thinking maybe I should call again and see what another rep gives me and if it sounds weird, ask for a supervisor?

this is so frustratinggggggg!
