Wow that scares me. My SD is June 14 and I have had no update.

Don't worry! It varies by country on review times. Have you looked at the spreadsheet created by JMBG? You can filter by your country to see the typical review/CC times.

Call and ask them to review the agent selection over the phone. Otherwise I can take something like 3 weeks for them to review it. The immigrant visa fee won't be invoiced until they have reviewed that.

 

And once you get the welcome letter then the aos fee should be available for payment.

Sorry about the checklist ☹️

Same thing happened to me and I KNOW we sent all pages to the NVC

Did you put your case number on each page you sent in?

our checklist said we did not send the correct documents but then the rep confirmed we had the correct one. The issue ended up being that they lost pages of our report, not that it was the wrong version. I guess they only have so many checklist options that they can email us, so it's confusing to say it's the incorrect one vs there are pages missing.

What's the document u get checklist for ,in ur own case
