Paid my AoS fees and completed DS-261. Yet to be reviewed though. Couldnt get through to NVC at all today afternoon. Long waiting times and they are disconnecting calls because of the huge call volume.

Got a question about the barcoded sheets. Where is the barcoded sheet in the Welcome letter used? Do I get 2 more barcoded sheets after AoS fees and IV fees changes to Paid status and this has to be included in the corresponding packages?

Thanks in advance for your response

Scan date Feb 8th, We got the 3N/A @ last.

I am glad we pushed with several calls emphasising the authenticity of my BC. Last Friday we got Check-listed for my BC. After speaking to NVC on phone 3 times, one of the agent said it was a mistake and we were placed on Admin Review. We equally sent the same BC again on Friday which got delivered yesterday

That is absolutely brilliant news. Looks like you're in for a May interview still. Shame I can't be joining you! And well done for persisting with them, a lot of folks would have just taken it laying down. Edited by IamIan

Does anyone know, if is it´s normal after 15 days of I-30 approval, no news from NVC?

I was approved 1st march and my approval was not even received by NVC... Geeeezzzzz... I was waiting for more than 6 months my I-30 and now... The NVC started the "joke" with me...

Go to CEAC site, review your DS-260 and verify all birthday dates.

If it is wrong contact NVC with the wrong date in your DS-260 and explain the issue to them so it can be corrected.
