Sure thing, thank you for updating your status. 

 

For now, daily, click on the following links to check your IR-1/CR-1 visa case status:

Check My Visa Application Status

DS-260, Online Immigrant Visa and Alien Registration Application

 

If it says "At NVC" and your AOS information is missing.. Then you most likely have a completed case (CC)... Then you'd call the NVC. 

 

See Example

 

 

Great information! I will check every day from now on. Thank you for everything

I've deleted the following note from the spreadsheet.. You can post that on here, but it's just not possible to put all that on the spreadsheet as it takes up the entire screen   Congrats on getting your expedite approved.  

 

My case was approved expedite at NVC Stage, skipping the 11-week reviw process and sent immediately to U.S. Embassy in Colombia, so here's a timeline of the NVC stage to give you guys an idea:
05/19/17 Paid AOS fee

06/01/17 Paid IV fee

06/06/17 DS-260 Completed Online

06/07/17 AOS and IV packages sent via USPS Express

06/08/17 AOS and IV packages delivered at NVC

06/08/17 Sent email requesting for expedite

06/12/17 Received email from NVCExpedite asking for DS-260 submission confirmation:
“Your correspondence indicates that ********** may wish for the processing of this petition to be expedited. The U.S. Embassy in Bogota, Colombia now requires that the online Application for Immigrant Visa and Alien Registration (DS-260) form be completed in advance before an expedite request is submitted.”

06/12/17 Sent email with DS-260 confirmation as an attachment:
“Thank you for your prompt response.
Online Application for Immigrant Visa and Alien Registration (DS-260) form was completed on 06/06/2017.

06/13/17 Received email from NVCExpedite confirming that our request was under review:
“The National Visa Center (NVC) received your inquiry regarding the immigrant visa petition: BGT********** filed by ********** on behalf of ***********.
Your request for the expeditious processing of this immigrant visa petition is currently under review. You will be informed of the results when the review is completed.

06/15/17 Received email from NVCExpedite confirming that our case had been accepted for expedited processing by U.S. Embassy:

Please note that it could take up to two weeks for the consular section to receive the case file once it has shipped from NVC”

06/20/17 Received email from NVC:

I could be wrong, but I thought the transcripts were only necessary if you didn't have a copy of your tax return. If you had it then you should be fine. 

 

Someone correct me if I'm wrong?

I hope you are right.

Your right. It's one or the other. I sent in my tax return because transcripts weren't yet available for 2016. I had no problem with that..

I hope you case gets approved! I didn't even think my case would be eligible for expedite but I decided to give it a try. Now I'm so happy I did. From the moment it was approved everything has been moving pretty fast.

That's correct, if not using transcripts, you can submit your tax returns with copies of all forms that were included in your tax return. W2s, 1099 etc.. if you don't have these, then you include a letter explaining why.

Just checked the website!!! and Guess what my case states it's at the "NVC" and the AOS fee area is gone. Does this mean my case is complete??? Have to wait until tomorrow to call and find out. I'm so nervous!
