NVC Filers - August 2019

[dwheels76 5,468]

Welcome to another monthly thread for those going through NVC

 

Please read everything below and refer to it throughout your NVC journey, whether this is your first month at NVC or your third. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Before posting questions, please read the wiki Saylin wrote on the NVC process here. Once you're done, read it one or two more times to really understand it ;)Don't forget to also read the official form instructions as well as USCIS and NVC's websites!

If you want to see a visual of the NVC process, please view Saylin's flowchart here.

Yes this thread was created by our great Queen Saylin and the knowledge is still going forward. This thread I pray stays alive and well as many who have gone through the process or still going can chime in and help and assist.

If you're wondering about time frames, look at the fellow members right here in this thread! Study their signatures/timelines and make notes. VJ also has this awesome page. Use it! I sure did during my process  That means if you are on this thread WE expect you to have an up to date timeline.

 

Current case file creation time:

This is the link to go to see what date they are working on. Follow  it says up to 6 weeks but recently that 6 weeks is about 4 weeks from approval at USCIS.
Once your case has been created, we will contact you with instructions on how to begin processing. Until your case is entered into our system, we unfortunately won’t have any information about your case.

Current case review time:

This is the link to see what date they are reviewing. Please allow up to three-weeks for NVC to review your forms and documents once we receive both the petitioner’s financial documents and the applicant’s civil documents. You must also have paid all required fees and submitted your visa application online. We will not review your file until we have received all of the above items

And once you've got a case complete, please join the case complete/interview thread started by me, Dwheels76 on (currently September 2019 thread),

Sure! I just sent you a private message asking your case number to take a look at the app. 👍🏻

Hey friends!

 

I received my case number from the NVC today, August 1st, 2019. via email. My NOA2 was June 19, 2019. The USCIS officially sent our case to the NVC July 1st, 2019. The NVC received our case July 10th, 2019. 

 

This was after I inquired via email 3 weeks ago. They got back to me yesterday saying they had not processed my case number yet, and then I woke up to the email this morning.

Looks like they did not send yet.

But i put your number in my list, so when something changes, i will see and forward to you the info, ok?

USCIS probably also will send you e-mails informing you they sent the case to NVC.

It’s crazy how it’s not even saying my case was approved even though we got approved on the 2nd of July hmmm

Hi friends, thank you to all who respond to anyone who is looking for help on here! Visa journey is a great place to get help when we’re confused and worried 😟 

I’m so lost again and frustrated as why CEAC has glitches so often that delays people’s cases?! 

Please help me again as I’m confused and frustrated!! Yesterday all my civil documents were accepted and complete and today I log in and it says that some civil docs are missing. It’s asking for the same ones I’ve submitted! 

I have  called NVC and they said I have to submit it again otherwise the system will show incomplete! Ugh 😑 

If I submit I’ll have to wait again for weeks. 

Do i have no choice? What should I do, please help? Has anyone had similar problems and how did they resolve this?

Thank you once again!

How did you find out your case was sent to NVC? From Case Tracker app?

Same situation here. Got an approval on 7/9 (snail letter), nothing is updated anywhere, called NVC several times, my case is not there yet. I hope USCIS did not lose my case:(

[impatienttt 16]

Anybody here whose case was approved and sent to or has received by NVC from CSC for the last month? I do not get it why CSC does not send the case to NVC after approval.
