Case Complete to Interview March 2016

[Frankjavir 55]

Absolutely: 2 things

1) I didn't include pages 11 and 12 in the AOS even though they didn't pertain to me because I wasn't using a joint-sponsor. I must resubmit my entire AOS form.

2)They are asking me to submit my 2014 w2 - the website(http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en/immigrate/immigrant-process/documents/Step_4_Collect_Financial_Documents.html) says "If you cannot obtain an IRS tax transcript: If you are unable to obtain an IRS tax transcript, submit a photocopy of your IRS Federal Income Tax Returns and Form(s) W-2 or schedule(s) from the most recent tax year." However I DID submit IRS tax transcripts for 2014, 2013, and 2012. If i had been asked to submit the w2 I would've done so in the first place. I called to ask why i'm being asked to submit and the guy on the phone was unable to tell me.

A waste of 40 days

Ok, calm down.

ITEM 2 first :

Read slowly and carefully the last page of your CHECKLIST, the first pages are a generic message that may not pertain to you.

The last page is specifies what they want and where to send it or bring it.

I believe what you have is what I call a "non-intrusive" checklist because it may be directing you to bring it to interview and not to send it to NVC.

Please: Double check and get back to me.

ITEM 1: What kind of I-864 did you file?

The guy on the phone said it is one of the most common mistakes they see.

I wish if they would have given you some relief by doing a conditional case complete and asked you to bring the documents to interview. I hope you do not have to wait for 40 days may be 25 days you get a case complete just send it ASAP.

I was hoping that NVC was asking you to bring it to the embassy.

Leaving blank fields is to them MISSING INFORMATION, they can not assume or guess it. Make sure you fill those blanks with N/A. (I figured out it was a regular I-864, for an I-864EZ those pages are 6 an 7.

The NVC Wiki guide mentions this in particular: http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/NVC_Process.

The thing about the W-2 is UNJUSTIFIED, it really upsets me because if you submit TRANSCRIPTS, you are not required to send W2.

There is one exception, and I am going quote the whole instruction for you.

Page 8 of instructions:

If you provide a photocopy of your Federal individual income tax returns, you must include a copy of each and every Form W-2 and Form 1099 that relates to your returns. Do not include copies of these forms if you provide an IRS transcript of your Federal individual income tax returns rather than a photocopy unless you filed a joint income tax return with your spouse and are qualifying using only your income.

I am sorry I tried to explore a way out, but you are stuck with it. Come on get up and keep running!!!

thanks for all the love guys, I'm calmer now. I'm mostly upset that this means we have to wait more. I agree it IS unjustified! thats why I called and asked if something was wrong with my transcripts , but the guy on the phone had no clue. Of course now I have to wait until Monday to get anythign sent off! Boo

[Frankjavir 55]

It is NOT the same, it is similar. You were asked only for W2s

[Garcialove 10]

If the case is sent To embassy for interview does it say "in transit"? Or does it not change at all...

Don't you qualify for a I-864EZ, just need three conditions: Easier to fill out. Do not leave page 6 and 7 blank if you use it.

1. You are the person who filed or is filing Form I-130, Petition for Alien Relative, for a relative being sponsored;

2. The relative you are sponsoring is the only person listed on Form I-130; and

3. The income you are using to qualify is based entirely on your salary or pension and is shown on one or more Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Form W-2s provided by your employers or former employers.

On item 3. Self employment or 1099s from being a contractor does not qualify

CEAC Status:

"AT NVC", is self explanatory.

"IN TRANSIT" means is on the way to embassy for interview. Note: IN TRANSIT pops up one day before DHL picks it up at NVC.

"READY", Embassy checked it and it is ready for interview.

"ISSUED" Visa was approved.

Those are the main ones, there are other like VISA PRINTING, ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESSING, etc.

It's possible but at this point I already filed it, she told me to just resubmit with a new signature and today's date and all would be well. I do have a couple 1099s though. I suppose I will submit those too just in case.
