Okay I need some help! I'm confused! I've read of others saying something about getting an AOS cover sheet and an IV cover sheet to send in their documents and I am wondering where did people get these? My AOS fee now shows paid but I did not receive a special sheet or anything. I did receive a "Document Cover Sheet" in my welcome email that is to go on top of the combined package when I send it in. Is this new? Am I missing something?

You should have received an email as soon as you paid, in that email there is an attachment with the AOS cover sheet.

Wow so after getting a CC on December 30 2014, then being told last week I didn't have a CC, someone from NVC actually called about an hour ago and they said my case is finally complete! I don't know if I should believe her or not lol. This process has been hell for us so far.

I'm hoping to get a March interview

Congratulations! I think you are safe to celebrate.

Thanks!

Whoa! I thought you were not far behind me. So glad to hear they got it sorted out. I hope things go quickly and smoothly for you now. Fingers crossed for your March interview!

It was quite the screwup on NVCs part else I should've had an early February interview

We were just talking about you in another thread (I think)! So glad to see you finally have a real answer. I'm hoping for a March interview too. Fingers crossed for both of us.

When you click on the AOS at the very bottom it says print document cover sheet . That's what you need along with the cover sheet you got in the welcome letter

Everything takes time . If your in the payment portal and you AOS still shows na just wait a day or two . Everything doesn't become available quickly . And once you pay it still takes days for it to even show in your bank account and also to show paid . Check back tomorrow it will show If not tomorrow check monday . It's pretty much business days with AOS and IV stuff
