Things have gone quite well for you. You went through the NVC pretty smoothly.

CC was 7/20 and we haven't received the CC email until now...nearly a month later. called on August 7 and the rep said she'd "put in an email request," but didn't say when we'd receive it...I assumed it would be the standard 1 week (which should have been 8/14). still nothing. Is there any point to continue to pester them for it? They've confirmed CC twice over the phone and we have 3 N/As on the CEAC site.

As everyone knows, calling and calling and calling is incredibly tedious and if the CC email isn't so important, I'd rather give up on getting it and just continue to wait for the interview date email (which I don't expect for another month at the earliest :( ).

Hey guys!

So my AOS fee is now showing as PAID and I got the young man at NVC yesterda 08/17/2015 to complete a verbal DS-261 (COA).

He said I'd receive an email in about 5-7 days with an IV payment invoice.

I know a few people (including Shams) said they receive the IV incvoice on CEAC the following day.

This is very weird though my beneficiaries name has dissapeared and now nothing is shown there. Take a look at the attachement please.

Oh nothing to worry about. The same thing happened to me and 1.5 days later I got an email with IV fee invoice.

Also you should know that even after you get the email, online it won't be available for another day or something. So keep checking! :)

I apologize if I shared some erroneous information. I was able to have them confirm my DS-261 on 8/10, I received the IV invoice on 8/12, and was able to pay it on 8/13. I did call after receiving the IV invoice because the letter was dated 8/11. It was a bit worrying for me to receive an email dated the previous day and not be able to pay it right then and there. It took a little time but it came.

Keep us posted.

Haha. Don't mention it. I know how intimidating this whole process can be. I often have questions about the littlest things, and when someone can respond and clear it up for you, it feels so good. A lot of people have done it for me on visa journey.

This platform is so great though. I wouldn't have gotten even half of the stuff done were it not for visa journey.

Guys! Question.

So on DS-260 they asked for my current place of residence and then they ask "From date".

Now I have been living here ever since I was born. So do I just put the month and year of my birth or should I put the year for when I was sixteen?

Because they have written in teeny tiny font "Date at the age sixteen".

Has anyone else noticed this while they filled out their DS-260?

I didn't like this section in the application. It is my understanding that it would be from when you were born.

If you have lived somewhere else then that date at age 16 would come into play, that is if you have lived anywhere else from when you were 16 years old.

I hope I understood it correctly.

Alright, so maybe I will just put my birth year since I haven't lived anywhere else since I was born.

Hey. I have another issue. These NVC people mispelled my husband's middle name so we need to send an email to correct it. Can you check the format and let me know if it seems okay?

Format:

18th August 2015

Beneficiary’s Name:

Beneficiary’s Date of Birth:

Petitioner Name:

Petitioner Date of Birth:

Case Number:

I, NAME OF THE PETITIONER, the petitioner of the above case number would like to inform that my middle name has been misspelled on all the correspondence we have received from the NVC. My correct full name is: CORRECTED FULL NAME

I have attached a photocopy of my passport as a proof to reflect my correct name. I request you to kindly update it at your earliest convenience.

Thank you,

NAME

ADDRESS

CITY STATE ZIP
