I just called the NVC and I finally got the visa number and the invoice number, I asked the lady if I can complete the DS261 and she said not I have to wait until I receive two emails one with the welcome letter and the other one with the instructions!! 

Do I really have to wait or I can start working to be ahead of the game?

 

Thanks...

The NVC rep gave me our case number and IV number.  I got the email the next day

Hi guys, another small question. I called the NVC when they opened this morning and they said that our case has been moved to supervisor review on Friday (that was our 8 week mark, scan date January 13th) and that it is being reviewed "as we speak." I have checked back a couple times today, and still no 3rd N/A...Once a case is in review, how long does it usually take to be CC in your experience? Should I be concerned that she said it's in review but I'm not seeing a 3rd N/A?

lucky you, it is being reviewed already (i hope he/she is telling the truth) just try and try checking it and do call them from time to time,

 

my scan date is also january 13, and was moved to SR on March 13, and still not being reviewed yet.

 

 

good luck hoping you'll get your CC soon :)

I can't believe they are making you wait 8 + weeks just to review ONE DOCUMENT. Thats just so wrong. I feel so sad for people with checklists. So unfair.  I am sorry that you have to go through this.  Hopefully you will get someone nice who will flag your case for a supervisor review sooner or probably request to speak to a supervisor.

I have seen it has helped some people around here. I am giving them end of this month and will start calling back to back requesting for a supervisor. I know we are too late for April interview I better get MAY :angry:

 

I have also emailed them and haven't received a reply yet. Will let you know if I hear something. Keep us updated. Good luck. 

after calling them and hang up, was wondering, does it really helped to be on supervisor review? or was it better to leave it at the reviewer?

because i saw there was this filer who didn't asked for SR, and got his CC after 10weeks / 12weeks

 

while my document is flagged for a SR, and yet i need to wait another 6 weeks

Hey guys 

 

I-130 was approved a couple of months ago and have been trying to arrange the documents for NVC since then. Seems like we are on track to submit everything this month. 

 

Since most of you have already submitted your IV and AOS packages you might be able to help. I read somewhere that no original documents are to be sent to the NVC ( I cant find where I read that though) which seems to agree with the NVC wiki. However the wiki says that you are supposed to send the original I-864 forms .

 

So simply put do we send the original I-864 to the NVC or do we send copies and take the original to the interview?

 

Regards

Send the original I864. Send copies of all other documents. The originals will be needed for the interview
