OH. EM. GEE!!!! So my HP is optimizing itself, so I figured I would surf VJ on my MacBook. Then I figure I will log into CEAC on the MacBook because I haven't yet and I want to bookmark it. I did not expect any change because my scan date is Oct 31.

MY AOS HAS CHANGED TO N/A!!!!!!!!

I haved logged in a few times to be sure, and yup....AOS is N/A. Guess who will be calling NVC first thing in the morning :)

I just wanted to point out that unfortunately Saylin's excel document that documents your visa progress has a huge gap between the end of September and then the end of October. No one with scan dates

Hi all, I just made the following list with all the users and their latest scan date I found on this thread so we can get an idea. Feel free to update it or add yourself! 10/01 - Antre 10/08 - laje

My thoughts in regards to scan dates and such: NVC isn't ever on just one specific date. It'll always be a range of dates, because there's more than just one person reviewing files. And although NVC

Did you get some assistance with this? I am a little sporadic on this site, so not sure I can help, but glad to take a look if you want to post the checklist or email to me I will have a look and see if I can make sense of it. Or maybe you are planning to call NVC tonight (Australia time)?

Sorry you are having a frustrating time. Not fair for them to send the email so long after the checklist. Were you meant to waste all that time waiting to send your documents in case the letter was different to what the phone rep said? Doesn't make sense that they would tell you something different to the letter.

Saylin kindly replied to a PM I sent her, asking about this. Saylin thinks that they're probably asking for W2s /transcripts of my mother-in-law, the joint sponsor's wife, even though we stated that they are jointly filing tax returns and are both separately self-employed.

And:

The second part is more understandable, it's the part that we left blank when we shouldn't have.

But they told us that it was my HUSBAND'S W2 that was missing. At no point is my husband even mentioned apart from being the addressee.

The other thing they checklisted us for is my police certificate, as I have mentioned before. The first person we talked to at NVC didn't even mention it, the second person said to just ignore that part because it gets sent to the consulate (confirmed by emailing the Sydney consulate that it's okay to bring my AFP certificate with me to the interview even).

Sigh.

PS. OH my god I'm now joining the ranks of finding it really hard to be happy for people :(

Gosh I am so sorry you are having to go through all this. I posted my post before I saw this, and I guess my timing sucks. I truly hope you can get help to straighten this all out soon. I wish you well, and I totally understand how you feel.

Oh bless you! You SHOULD be happy and excited don't worry, I just know that when I first started posting on here I noticed that a lot of people were frustrated and seemed to be kind of resentful of others getting CC, and now I get it that's all! I wouldn't say I feel resentful as such, more like SUPER jealous! We felt like we were so so careful with our paperwork and to have checklists is so hard :(

I doubt they are on OCT 31st. I am OCT28 and I didn't hear anything. I think Saylin was right. Every officer gets a pile and someone works fast, someone works slow. But I hope they work my case soonnnnn.
