How long does NVC take to review resubmitted documents?

[JonoB 5]

Hi all,

 

NVC have approved the majority of the supporting documents (passport page, head shots, birth certs, etc) I submitted for mine and my wife’s F4 case, but they asked me to resubmit some which they said we’re the wrong way up. I did this straight away. That was almost three weeks ago, I’ve had no contact from them since, and our CEAC Civil Documents statuses still show as ‘Submitted’. Does anyone know how long it normally takes to hear something from NVC if you’ve had to resubmit documents?

 

Many thanks

It's been taking longer recently. I submitted on the 11th of August and got Approved on 13th of September. You'll find a few outliers though who get approved a lot quicker.

I've had the same issue at the NVC for months now.   Every time they want a new document or reject (a previously approved document) you go back to the end of the line and wait.   I've been stuck in the NVC since May...incredibly frustrating.

When I look up status, the notice is they are working on cases from July! I submitted 6th Aug, but haven't been approved... no word at all!

same is for my case from May, documents been accepted and they request the same document again on next review. It used to take 3 weeks to review in April, May. Now it takes 6 weeks to review. This is my 3rd submission since starting the process. yes, frustrating.

I had the same "wrong way up" problem. It took 5 weeks and 2 phone calls to the NVC. the 2nd time I called she told me someone hadn't marked it for review again. It was accepted the next day.

Don't worry about it. I'm on a F-24 visa. My dad submitted his W2 instead of his tax transcript, so the day they sent the email (which was a Friday 31st May ish) we sent the correct document in the very same night...didn't hear anything until the 26th June where they finally DQ'd the paperwork. Give it the rest of the week and then I'd call them to find out what is going on- but be prepared for an extremely long wait on the phone.

 

Good luck

Thanks all. It’s reassuring, yet also sad, to hear others have had similar experiences. And disconcerting that NVC may not be reviewing a case because it hadn’t been marked for review. You can literally be sitting there forever assuming they are reviewing it, when they may not be, all because of incompetency at their end!

I also know there was nothing wrong with the documents I submitted: all were done in exactly the same way and not ‘the wrong way up’.

Guess it’s just a waiting game!

 

Thanks again

Heard from NVC today after five weeks. It wasn’t good news. 😕

No, all documents are now showing as accepted. They said my sponsor doesn’t meet the minimum poverty guideline amount.
