Hey Steve and Alice.

Thanks for the note. I did receive the 60day email confirmation just this missing. One quick question, coming from my paranoid side (lol) since my documents were sent in two different emails - 1 for I-864 and the other for DS-260 does this email confirmation reflect the receiving of both these emails or just the one they received first of the two?

Hope that made sense.

Great you got the 60 day email!! We were so nervous about ours since the NVC agent kept saying their system was down that week then the office was close for most of that week.

I think it's for the submission date. We sent 2 emails too. Back to back within seconds of each other. I actually never thought about it lol.

Im still waiting on case number, but Im trying to gather all my documents ahead of time, I have like 2 questions.

1st. My income is only based off my w-2 and I qualify for the 184 EZ, can I use that one even though I have the joint sponsor?

2nd. My joint sponsor is not related to me at all, he is a coworker. Can I still use him?

1 - No, you cannot use the I-864EZ with a joint sponsor

2 - Yes, your joint sponsor does not have to be related to you

Just because I said I would post it: CC on March 2nd is official!

I'd seen the third N/A since Monday, but I didn't get through to confirm until tonight.

Predictably she said that there's no way for me to have any concrete information about how long it will take to get the interview scheduled...but what's a little more waiting at this point??;)

It is honestly so exciting to see all of these case completes today! I don't know any of you personally but I am so very thrilled for each and every one of you! It's about time we saw some movement here...things have seemed particularly slow lately! It brings a little bit of hope back to people like me who are still waiting. Congrats all!!
