I-129F March 2017 Filers

[Marzena & Stephen 544]

I haven't received my packet 4 yet its only been a couple days but most people are receiving it the next day.. so weird. Anyways another couple on here booked for October 4 as that is the earliest interview appointment for Montreal !

Super frustrating that we wait on them and cant book interviews in Canada as waiting a week can bump your interview a whole month!

Crossing my fingers for today!

I am just wondering if I actually have to re-do it.

 

I'd rather not lol.

 

 

I wouldn't.... that just makes things messy/complicated if #'s change at all. I am sure they know of the issue.

I submitted Packet 3 on a Saturday and got Packet 4 on Monday at noon.

 

You got the auto-response from them though, correct? After submitting?

 

Okay thanks, I didn't think it would be too big of a deal with the DS-160.

Yeah. You're right😂 But the customer service representatives told us it's ok as long as you bring the latest one. I didn't have any problem during my interview 😊 That's your decision. Lol.

ya i did get the auto response but no packet 4?! what the heck. now I'm really nervous.

The other thing that worries me is that i have an email that ends with dot ca i hope they didn't write dot com.. (.ca .com) and that's why i havnt gotten it.. so many people say its the next day and nothing.

[Marzena & Stephen 544]

@Orit.d the other thing i noticed is ny CEAC tracker updated on Friday and on Monday

So i sent the email Thursday.. the 24th.. the CEAC tracker updated on Friday to 8.25  than on Monday to 8.28 and i still didn't receive anything !?

[Marzena & Stephen 544]

Should I maybe resend my email? even though I received a confirmation?

How did you actually "calculate" the 3 numbers after 2017?

Aaaaaaand.... the last 3 numbers mean "created on that day for the country"?

Explain, Guru!  

I'm known as Miss Google for a reason

 

The three numbers after the year is the day of the year+500 (01/01=501, 01/02=502...). And yes, the last three, as you said, mean "created that day for your country".

Does it say Ready?

 

In the auto-reply it states " We will respond to your immigrant visa inquiry as quickly as possible, normally within 10 business days."

 

I would either wait it out, or perhaps re-send the initial e-mail with the passport/checklist/ds160. 

 

@eastcoastgroove  submitted multiple times before she got a reply lol

Ya it said ready.. so I emailed them the same day it changed to ready. I'm stressing.. ugh.

I know they got it.. since I got the auto reply. just everyone that I have talked to lately has been getting it the next day.. except for one person. they said 6 days. I guess I will wait?

If you submitted on Thursday, its only been 2 business days.

Wait a bit more, maybe you will receive a reply this week. 

 

Don't stress

 

After your interview is finally booked there isn't much left do to (other than gather paperwork) so, your'e almost there!

ya I know..   it just sucks the interview dates get pushed so far away when you wait and wait.. and its super stressful knowing others have been getting a reply the next day. Even people who submitted after me. so bizarre ..

 

Case Created:	11-Aug-2017
Case Last Updated:	28-Aug-2017    it didn't change again today.. so you think I would have got an email yesterday. hmm...

@Orit.d

I submitted it about 5 times before I got a response.  When it says "ready".... It unfortunately doesn't always mean ready.  EVERY TIME I noticed the date update, I resent packet 3 until I got packet 4.  They will just ignore it otherwise.
