I Just called the NVC, and the man (not very kind... I prefer the lady) unlock the IV fee !!

We are going to be able to pay it in the next 7 days ! That means that I will check every 5 minutes from now on !!!

How long have you been waiting between your call to NVC and the moment of your IV fee payment ?

I made both AOS and IV fees just before Christmas 12/23 and 12/24 and they were just updated to PAID last night . Hopefully without holidays it will be quicker.

Nice, Good luck

I would feel fortunate to get a January CC with a December 29th scan date. Hoping for the best.

Yeah , we are kinda pushing it but I believe it will happen

Oh my IV fee shows paid now! And the DS-260 is now available so im hoping to fill it out with my wife in the next couple of days when our schedules allow! +8 hour time difference is hard.

So as soon as that is submitted I believe I only have to wait for either a cc or, hopefully not, a request for more documents!

I feel like im losing the race to you guys though!

Yeah, I feel you on the time difference. It is 10 hours for me.

I loved the online DS260 though , I will fill in at my convenience and my wife was doing the review and adding to it at her time. and then we submitted it after each one reviewed it. Try that ...

Question, I just completed the DS-260 online and for the first time had to expand upon the education section. We are completing our immigration from Ecuador and my husband did about 10 month masters program in Spain. I hadn't included it as a permanent residence until now as the DS-260 seemed to delve into that further than at the USCIS level. I added it as a residence and an educational institution. My question is making me VERY nervous. We have already sent the AOS and IV packets and everything is done. Did I need to get a police clearance from Spain too? Or just Ecuador. This has me very nervous. Looking for people with this specific experience of a piece of their education in another location and regarding the police clearance only. Is there a possibility they won't ask for it?

Hi !!

http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en/immigrate/immigrant-process/documents/Supporting_documents.html here, under Police certificate, it says that you need a police certificate if you stay there more than 1 year if it's a country of previous residence!

In my case, I lived in Spain for 4 years (studied and worked there), so I need one. I think you don't need one as your husband stayed there 10 months!! You are good!!

I have a question: Can I send the AOS and IV packets before I pay the IV fee???? Because the IV fee should be unlock within 7 days, but if they receive my packet before I pay the IV fee, it might be bad, isn't it ?

Thank you for your response and sorry for the spam!!

Thanks for responding - I saw the same thing but was worried I was reading it wrong. It helps that you are confirming the same way I read it. You can send the AOS and IV packet as soon as you have done the first AOS fee so send it now! You don't have to wait for the IV fee to unlock.

Great !

We will send it tomorrow !!!!!!! :)

Let's dance !

So the NVC has officially put our case into their system as of yesterday. We submitted the DS-261 today and I will send the AOS fee in the morning when I get off work. We still have some file gathering to do while we wait for IV fee to unlock but hoping to be able to submit the info online within the next ten days! It's so good to see things move along finally after waiting 5 months and 5 days at USCIS! Feels like we are actually getting somewhere now finally!!! Woooooohooooooo!

Our AOS n IV went to paid status last night and we started our DS 260 last night. We are still gathering papers for our package to send it out on thursday.

question on ds 260 - other names used - my wifes last name was changed after marriage - should i list her last name under other names used?

[rmpate8q 4]

couple questions listed on ds260 - I live in US and my wife is coming by herself to US after the interview. I have answered no to both of these questions. Just want to confirm with others if I am reading this correctly?

Is your spouse immigrating to the U.S. with you? - no

Is your spouse immigrating to the U.S. at a later date to join you - no

[siniybella 6]

I also said no to both of does questions
