Dont give up! Push until they fix the matter. A total lack of communication between both nvc and embassy.

I requested it Dec 18 to both embassy and nvc on Dec 29 nvc reply to submit evidence and embassy reply to do it through nvc with I did Jan 4 email it and on the 5th they confirmed received. Today I called nvc and they said they forward to consulate now waiting.

Thanks!

I know, I cant believe it.

My case should be reviewed in the next 2 weeks anyway but I need this expedite to get to my sick husband!

I'm still on hold to speak to someone at the NVC.

Any suggestions of what else I should ask for?

I am going to confirm receipt of civil documents and if they can forward that info onto the embassy? Should I ask to speak to a supervisor?

Yes, ask to speak to supervisor and some type of proof things are being done.

I just spoke to the NVC.

She said that they have received my packet but cannot confirm that the civil documents are there because my packet has not yet been reviewed. She then gave me the 60 day spiel.

I told her, the point of my expedite request is to obviously not have to wait for it to be reviewed and to get it through to the embassy. She ten told me my request was declined and I have to deal with it, I can send another request if I wanted to.

I guess I have to wait until someone picks up my file, confirms receipt of civil documents then submit another expedite request.

Which i dont see the point of if i have to wait anyway.

Im going to try and call the embassy directly and see what can be done. This is beyond ridiculous.

The embassy is the only one to make the decision about expedites. NVC only passes on your request and if approved by the embassy forwards the case to them thus skipping the 60 day wait. Since the embassy is requiring NVC to confirm civil docs it appears to NVC as a denial. I would go back to the embassy again and explain what NVC said because this is an obvious disconnect. NVC won't confirm and embassy wants confirmation. I would think you could email copies of the civil documents to the embassy directly as proof you have them. I don't see the point of the civil documents being something to hold up a decision about an expedite since the onerous now falls to the embassy to review civil docs anyway. Best of luck! I was denied my expedite by the embassy after being expedited for the I-130 at USCIS. The embassy did assure me that I would have an expedited interview. I am 9 months pregnant and my NVC scan date is Nov 17th, still waiting for review/response. Assuming no checklists and an expedited interview my husband might make the birth of our child. Such a bad system! Those of us that have spouses in countries not on the visa waiver program are challenged even further by this process. Add pregnancy making travel unavailable and it's an absolute nightmare situation. 7 months now since I last saw my husband. They should not separate families like this.

We mailed our I-130 today! :dancing:

We were denied previously for the K-1 due to sending the wrong Chinese documentation for my wife's divorce certificate. USCIS was not clear in the RFE of what they wanted until they sent the denial letter. :diablo:

But we are married now, sent tons of proof and the second time will stick! :thumbs:

all the best to you both, Mike and Yaoling!

but be very patient....the petition approval at uscis is a slow one and a case complete might be just as slow.

none the less....good luck!!!

I am afraid that my visa will take long to process too and my husband needs me.

I have decided to travel on the visa waiver on a return flight to the states to be with him. I can't wait for the NVC process any more.
