NVC Filers - May 2017

[aura009 1]

ok guys so little off topic but really need answer on this one:

 

so I think i filled out wrong where it asks for family name, I put my first and last name under "Family name in all caps" and USCIS actually meant only Last name and than put my first name again under "(First)". I did not know that  Family Name in ALL CAPS actually MEANT my Last name only.

 

now I got letter saying from uscis that my case has been accepted but it comes as Firstname Firstname, Lastname.  my passport only has Firstname, Lastname. Would this cause issues?

Has anyone with a scan date at the end of March (Mail processing) Got a CC yet? I am confused about what is happening as the CCs seem to be jumping all over the calendar.

Yes, this would absolutely be an issue. Your name and date of birth are critica since this must match the passport which will receive the visa.

 

You need to call uscis asap with the mistake and corrected information. You're lucky you realized it early on or it might have been harder to correct after your file is sent to the NVC.  I would send them an email immediately and call nvc informing them of the error.

My SD is March 16, mine is not even in the review dept yet while others past my date or im in between have been reviewed already and some are CC.. Their processing is just weird .. A supervisor i have talked to says they process according to categories like the visa class, country, PD, SD, mail/email, expedited or not

Hello,

'

I received this email yesterday and I'm little confused because I do not know if my case is closed or not (maybe I have to send the info of 2016?). My scan date is 22nd March, FYI:

Dear Sir/Madam:

 

The National Visa Center (NVC) received your inquiry regarding the immigrant visa petition: (number case) filed by (name spouse) on behalf of (my name).

 

X1

We reviewed your I-864 Affidavit of Support form and supporting financial documents. We found that you didn't provide all the necessary supporting documents or you had incomplete information or you missed some questions on the Affidavit of Support form(s).

 

On the Affidavit of Support checklist, we have put an "X" by each item you need to correct. Go to the Department of State's website at http://nvc.state.gov/aos for English or http://nvc.state.gov/aos/espanol for Spanish and follow the instructions for the Affidavit of Support form(s). From there, you can fill out a new form, sign, and send the form(s) to the NVC. We require an Affidavit of Support form for each case regardless of your income level.

 

Your case is on hold until you send us the items we need. When you return the documents and completed Affidavit of Support form(s) to the NVC, please make sure that the documents are in the correct order, as stated in the I-864 Important Notice instructions.

 

For Affidavit of Support (FAQs), go to http://travel.state.gov/content/visas/en/immigrate/immigrant-process/documents/support/i-864-frequently-asked-questions.html

 

x2

We reviewed the Affidavit of Support form and supporting financial documents you submitted. While we will schedule your case for an interview, there is something incomplete or missing. This could affect the Consular Officer's ability to make a decision on your case.

 

On the Affidavit of Support Assessment Letter, we have put an "X" by each item you need to correct.

 

If your Affidavit of Support form needs correction:

Fill out a new form online.

Print, sign and send the form to the principal applicant so he or she can take them to the visa interview. Do not send the updated form to NVC.

 

If there are supporting documents missing:

Send the missing documents to the principal applicant so he or she can take them to the visa interview. Do not send the documents to NVC.

 

After NVC schedules the immigrant visa interview, we will send you an appointment letter with additional details. You do not need to contact NVC or send us additional financial information at this time.

 

You can access instructions for Affidavit of Support forms and read Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) online at nvc.state.gov/aos (English) or nvc.state.gov/aos/espanol (Spanish).

 

 

X1 is the name of my father-in-law (he's supporting us with an I-864) and X2 is the name of my spouse.

 

Does it make any sense that both paragraphs contradict each other?

 

Thank you so much!

This was almost exactly the same way my case was.

One said I should send documents and the other paragraph says I shouldn't.

I thought I had a CC but it wasn't.

I called NVC and the  Rep told me then that she knows the email is confusing but that's the way it was programmed and I should follow both instructions.

Send the one nvc requests ASAP

Your interview date would only come when they've reviewed the documents you were asked to send..

And unfortunately that's another 11 weeks.

But mine took 8 weeks and 1 day.

I pray yours won't take as long as 11 weeks , but you need to act quickly.

For further asertation you can still call NVC and ask about it.

Wow. I should have thought March 16 would have gone through by now. We can only hope for the best. Hopefully you get a cc this coming week. It will give the rest of us hope.  I will keep track of these boards and hopefully we will see some progress this week.
