Hello people! My scan date is January 27. I just spoke with NVC and they said my case was moved to a review team on March 31 and is "currently under review." Is that still just a general thing they say to people or does that mean I could be close?

 

Thank you. Best of luck to everyone else waiting. :) 

Same scan date, same answer! 

The lady said: "That's where the documents are supposed to be. These are good news for you". Let's hope we hear from them soon. :)

6 months? How did that happen?

 Got a checklist. They got my case in October and my "original" scan date was nov 9th, got a checklist for a document a 3rd party was supposed to send, and got a new scan date Jan 23rd. My case just left NVC last Monday but only because I was approved for expedite. Your congressman should be able to help you with that

None Available, On the Affidavit of Support Fee section for 9 weeks it said PAID, Yesterday it change to N/A, I been reading once it changes to that status usually means case has been completed I'm just waiting for an email from NVC confirming a case complete.

I know this has probably been asked a million times before so apologies if I'm asking it again - but when completing the AOS form (My wife will be completing I-864EZ) for sections such as info about an interpreter, if you didn't use one should you put N/A.  The instructions indicate you should put that if asked a question that doesn't apply to you but the example they used was something direct like, are you married?  What have others done?

I would just hate to get a checklist over something so pedantic. We had the same dilemma for the I-130 and I think we ended up putting them. Looks ridiculous though!
