IR-1 August Filers (CSC) - Has anyone had their case received by NVC? (I-130)

Just sign in on - http://ceac.state.gov/, you need your case# and ID#. They won't take your email until you choose an Agent, DS-261, it it's available go ahead and complete it, should take you only a couple of minutes.

Ooooo ok now it is also saying "pay now" for both AOS and IV....I'm guessing that means I can?

I would pay them immediately. It probably won't let you pay them at the same time so first submit the AOS payment and right after that go ahead and pey the other one - the IV.

4-5 days later the payments will be posted and then will let you complete IV application. If you chose to be the Agent for your Beneficiary then you'll be able to complete it on his behalf.

I would suggest right after completion of IV app start collecting financial and supporting docs. Once the cover sheet is available on your account (under your log in in NVC website) and your ready with all documents don't wait mail them to the address on the cover sheet. Everything takes time so don't waste it!

My supporting docs were delivered on Tuesday. I called today and they still haven't logged them into their system. After they do it, it could take up to 30 days to process them.

I paid the AOS and submitted the DS-261 but the IV fee wasn't available yet. Also, every time I told it to email me something, it wouldn't email. I was able to print of the AOS Barcode page, at least. I tested out my email and stuff from normal human emails, expedia, and ebay goes through. Only NVC stuff won't. I don't know what that means.

Also, on the USCIS site, I had it set to email notification ON and it only sent me a notification the first time they received the petition. I only found out it was approved when I checked myUSCIS on my own. It had said I was approved 3 days early from that day I was looking. So that's kinda stupid that these important emails aren't going through but I get to get spam from eBay and expedia 8 times a day.... -_-' haha
