[LoveinGhana! 55]

Good to see you again hun! I just got off the phone with NVC. Got our case number! WOOHOO!

Now I'm waiting for the little ping for my welcome email so I can start the forms! WOOHO!!! I'm dancin!

This is great news!!! I am so happy you are finally on this side. Things will go much faster for you now.

Yes, you should wait. Check my signature. I sent my docs on 1/26 evening and then got emails on 1/29 saying they received my documents on 1/27. Also, you will get a new NVC case number starting from 'GZO' since you have chosen EP.

Hey,thx for help. 3Q

BTW, I hope you received the automated reply email from NVC after you submitted your documents through email.

As you know, nobody goes the extra mile in MKE unless you are holding 100 euros in your hand. Decent thing would be to tell people but no, they dont bother.

yea right so what's happening with your case did u got new scan date or U still didn't submit the missing document ?

I think you should have gotten the automated mail after you sent in your docs. Check you Spam folder. In my case, three minutes after submitting my docs through email, I got an automated reply from NVC (NVCElectronic@state.gov).

I have a question about the AOS form, and all subsequent forms I will be filling out. When I originally filed the I-130 I used my maiden name because I was filing from here (USA) and none of my govt id/docs had my married name on them yet (we were married in South Africa over 8 years ago). After I filed the I-130 I worked on getting everything else changed. I've got it all done now, ss card, drivers license, postal service, taxes blah blah blah...everything except my US passport because it's an extra $110 that I would rather spend on this stuff lol.

So, when I fill out the forms for NVC should I be using my married name that all my current documentation has or my maiden name that the original form was filed under?

Just had them translated, I will mail them out this Thursday so I wont know scan date for another 10-14 days. Just mad at my self for not looking carefully, could have had interview date by now instead I'm looking at another 45+ days.

Any CC today? Waiting for mine .. Scan date 19th February

Our documents were sent Feb 12th (Friday) and rec'd on Feb 15th.

I have just logged in, and Affidavit of Support Fee shows N/A, after previously showing PAID. I'm cautiously optimistic, but it seems this means our case has moved to complete??

Congratulations. I have added you to the spreadsheet.

If you want. You are the petitioner so really not a big deal but to show you have changed your name to your husbands and important documents. It's no choice.

I know it may be a little late, but I hope you told your translator to include the following verbiage. I personally know of people that got check listed for not including this even though it was notarized. This is directly from the USCIS website, it applies at the NVC stage too:

https://www.uscis.gov/forms/forms-and-fees/general-tips-assembling-applications-mailing

Please submit certified translations for all foreign language documents. The translator must certify that s/he is competent to translate and that the translation is accurate.

The certification format should include the certifier's name, signature, address, and date of certification. A suggested format is:

Certification by Translator

I [typed name], certify that I am fluent (conversant) in the English and [enter appropriate language] languages, and that the above/attached document is an accurate translation of the document attached entitled [enter title of document].

Signature

Typed Name

Address

He only have couple hundred dollars for 2015 tax. but he salary is high and have asset .. would that be okay? or really need to have a joint sponsor? coz now he is asking one of his friend to see if he can help us out. If not, we think of just sending out what we have.. NVC was not able to give out any advice. so please anyone help me ..so joint sponsor is a must?
