Hi everyone,

Like all of you, I've been awaiting my CC too, and have been checking the CEAC website almost every hour and hoping to see that special N/A next to AOS fee, but it just continues to show PAID, so I've decided to not check the website until Friday....let's see how that goes!! I also am hopeful for that quick CC many are having, getting it after three weeks after their scan date. Although, I'm not nearly there yet, but was hoping to get it before the 3 week mark? haha, I could only hope.

Let's all just be patient and hope for the best. And pray for no checklist....oh God please help us all!

Know what, I'm going to join you since we both have the same scan date- I won't check until Friday either.

Cool! I know, this is very difficult, even more knowing others got their CC before the 30 day mark which makes us check the CEAC website everyday, more so now that we are close to the 21 days... let's pull it thorough and not check the website till Friday!! We can do this! :)

Hi everyone,

I'm delighted to hear things are moving along for all concerned. I got back from my Thailand trip and meeting my wife. We had a great time, but I feel I'm behind a few weeks from many of the Feb. filers. I just sent in my Aos and IV packet on Monday Sept 14th. Do I just wait or are people calling to see if it's received? There are a lot of posts, so I didnt check then all but something about a scan date. Do I call and ask when it was scannned. Any thoughts? Thanks and congrats all, soon the journey of waiting will be over for all of us!

Glad to hear you had a great time with your spouse!! I have a question for you, did you certified your mail and given a tracking number? if so, then that delivery company should state if your package was delivered, once you get notification that it was, call NVC and ask if it was received, sometimes it takes up to two business days for them to scan it into the system. For example, I sent out the packages via UPS on 8/25 and were delivered on 8/27, but didn't get scanned into the system until 8/31 (scan date).

If you sent it via regular mail, then it would take a few business days to arrive, I would call maybe Friday? However, you may wish to call sooner, it is up to you :)

It was kinda hard for me to not check it everyday, but I managed to do it by preparing stuffs for interview and focusing on my everyday work. But my husband became my questions target. I kept saying to him, "when would we get our CC?" "wonder when?" When when when when. Lol. Sorry hubby. But anyway, you can do it! Good luck! :D

LOL. Yes, self-control! haha. It is difficult, although I have the feeling that Friday it will say the same thing.. PAID! .. we shall see.

Cool! Then, you shoul start calling now. Your scan date definitely should be given to you by latest Friday.

I kept saying to him, "when would we get our CC?" "wonder when?" When when when when. Lol. Sorry hubby. But anyway, you can do it! Good luck! :D

Yes, it is difficult, but every time I see PAID, I just get bummed, so I'm just going to log in to it until Friday. :) BTW, I am just stunned to know you already have your interview date!! That is just amazing! So happy for you!!
