thank you! :)

Thank you guys! Now waiting for an interview letter.. how long does it usually arrives?

It depends on your country and if interview dates are still available for NVC to schedule. Check out Dwheels76 "Case Complete to Interview" spreadsheet on the Case Complete forum. You can search by country and get an idea of how long it took others from the same country to get an interview date after receiving case complete. Hope that helps.

Hello my scan date was 14 march 2016. I lived in South Africa last year but located to the uk in january. I got my police clearance in august 2015, because you never know how long they going to take with documents there. But police clearance came in august, but now worried my clearnce wont be valid becuase i read its only valid for 6 months? I moved end of december to the uk will that police clearance be sufficient enough?

I also have an expired police certificate at NVC,I was advised by someone in this forum to get a renewed one ASAP just in case they checklist me for a more recent one so maybe you should do the same but hopefully they just let you bring a renewed PC to the interview. Please keep me updated since your scan date is a week before mine and your fate will probably be my fate as well...best of luck with the process!

Hello everyone!

I'm patiently waiting NVC to receive my documents so I can go ahead and get a case number and pay AOS and IV bill. I will be submitting the I-601A waiver and then my forms about two months later. Hopefully, they'll give me a case number soon. Fingers crossed!

Your scan date pls?

I don't have one yet :( I'm hoping to get it by the end of the week.

Neither of you know what a scan date is, PonJor can not have one in a week or in a year because you do not even have a case number.

I think what you are talking about is the NVC received date. (Received from USCIS).

FYI: SCAN DATE is the date NVC scans the AOS and IV packages after receiving them from a courier or US Postal Service.

Ah, thank you! Yes, my case has not been received as of yet and I am waiting on it to be received and then assigned a case number. Hopefully, this will be within the next two weeks (if I am not mistaken the wait is around a month correct?)

Hello my scan date was 14 march 2016. I lived in South Africa last year but located to the uk in january. I got my police clearance in august 2015, because you never know how long they going to take with documents there. But police clearance came in august, but now worried my clearnce wont be valid becuase i read its only valid for 6 months? I moved end of december to the uk will that police clearance be sufficient enough?

police clearance is valid for 1 year and has no expiration if u didn't went back to the country that is issued from
