hey E & E

i have a question from you

if the spouse just visit her husband for six months then will get back to US do they have to submit domicile or not?

I am not sure to be honest, I see your petition just made it to NVC. So you would be sending your IV and AOS paper work from Pakistan? But if she has a US address and she puts the US address on her affidavit of support. She has still a job in the US or? I mean she is just visiting your not living in Pakistan and everything hers is in the States. I have to prove domocile becuase I have not been in the states since 2008 and do not have a physical address there.

You're right in that NVC does only work Monday - Friday and has weekends off. Every agent i've spoken with (trust me when i say i have spoken with a large number of them) has said it's calendar days n

right. count calendar days from when they say scan date. you very well could get case complete either Wednesday or Thursday of this week! Hoping for a smooth CC for you!!!

I've noticed that. I've been trying to understand why my countries cases get case closed in an average time of 3 weeks. It usually doesn't go past 2 weeks and 2-3 days. I got case complete in a week. My country is Mexico. I really don't understand how they do the whole division of work. But I truly hope you all get your case complete soon! :)

it's up to you. NVC can't delay your case simply because you call once a day. Others on this forum have called every day...some 2-3 times a day and got CC in a timely manner.
