Checklist scan date of December 2, here. Called NVC today, was told my case hasn't been reviewed yet due to the weather closures and to call back on Friday :(

I just passed the one year mark and am losing all hope...

Don't let them win, stay strong! Our lawyer told us it would take 3 months, it will be a year in March. We no longer are using a lawyer.

Hi All,

After months of waiting and a checklist at NVC, the status on ceac website changed to N/A on Saturday. It was our first anniversary and what better gift than CC at NVC :) [checklist scan date was Dec 8,2014]. I have been trying to call NVC to confirm and also get some clarity on when can I expect the interview. They seem to have a high call demand and hence, I haven't been able to get through despite calling them 20 times already. I checked the New Delhi embassy website and the first available appointment that they have is 19th February. I am hoping to get an appointment by end of this month as currently I am in US and will be going back to India on 17th of this month. Fingers crossed....hoping to get the NVC email some time this week. Thanks Saylin for always helping the VJ fellows :) you are doing a great job :)

All the best to fellow VJ'ers...We all will sail through it :)

Cheers!!

Congratulations!!! :thumbs: Cool to know that your embassy is New Delhi's US embassy. Please let me know when you will get an interview appointment via email. We are waiting for CC and then appointment letter for my spouse for an interview at US embassy in New Delhi. I am curious.. What was your checklist about? My checklist scanned date is Dec 22nd (minor error on AOS. Also, they requested a photocopy of our marriage certificate even though they already have our original marriage certificate.). Have a good trip to India.

I'm sure someone has already shared this before but it gives some insight into the NVC process:



http://travel.state....vember 2014.pdf



Some of the statistics were pretty surprising like the amount of post going in and out. And the amount of congressional inquiries. The article also says the phone system will be re-vamped in mid February although I won't hold my breath! Also says they are pushing to have all countries with electronic processing pending a software rollout in late 2015. I imagine that would eliminate a lot of issues (lost documents etc).




FY 2014 Statistics:


• 709,000 cases received from USCIS.


• 99,000 current family-based petitions.


• 349,000 cases shipped to Post.


2.6 million total cases.


• 1.4 million pieces of incoming mail.


• 3.3 million pieces of outgoing mail.


• 1.7 million written inquiries.


• 1.6 million calls.


• 98,000 Congressional inquiries.

If you are submitting tax transcript, only the transcripts is require. If you are submitting tax return then w-2s or 1099 is require with it.

Yes you can send in copy
