Hi anyone know what’s wrong with Nvc I can’t call they just tell go online check info on ceac it’s been two weeks now what’s wrong any idea? 

You have to constantly call and hang up right when hear the message start playing, keep calling until you hear a ring, once you hear it ring one bell before the message plays, it will let you hold for a representative... hold for 1-2 hours. Good luck!

I was having the same issue on Friday and Sunday. You just have to wait a few minutes and try again.

Hey guys, 1st Congrats to all who got DQ'ed. 

and now I have a question hopefully someone knows the answer. When you resubmit a missing/requested document, does NVC  review ALL the documents again...like the ones that have already been "Accepted"?

I submitted back in November (Everything expect one document was approved), resubmitted the incorrect document on Jan 15 and waiting still.

With all this talk about missing unemployment cover letters and etc my stomach just drops just to think if they open all my approved documents and re-review them again and decide they want more.

I don't think I can handle a 3rd resubmission, my wife would literally lose her mind having to wait 2-3 more months. I. just want them to open the file, look at the resubmitted Doc and DQ.

Ive literally lost sleep over this.

@DeParaquedasBrasi I'm in the same boat. Resubmitted Jan 28. Sick over the possibility of not getting DQ this time (I resigned from my job in Nov expecting this NVC portion to be quick. HAHA!). These forums can be encouraging, but also a bit anxiety-inducing as you see every possible scenario of what could go wrong. Try to trust that they asked for what they needed and pray for DQ this time! Good luck! Definitely a stressful wait.

It is a stressful wait indeed - NVC received our case back in November 8th...had to wait two months for a police certificate from Spain. Submitted on the 9th of January and we're still waiting on a reply. But i think, now speaking for all of us here, that it's better to be stuck in NVC purgatory than it is to be at the mercy of the USCIS.

Hard to know what NVC actually does when they review for the second time, but all you really can do is hold hope and confidence. When we had our second submission I had the same worries, “what if they look at it again and decide ‘actually we don’t like this or we want this or that’?” I was worried sick about them looking at my dads birth certificate again (which they accepted the first time around) and deciding they didn’t like it (not sure if it’s a “short form” but definitely doesn’t have a lot of info on it..), but luckily the second time around everything was good and they didn’t change their mind on any previous submitted docs.. so I would just try to hold as much confidence as you can and try to keep the mindset of “if they didn’t like it before they would have said so” and try to take that nothing else was pointed out the first time around as a good sign that everything else should be fine

I'm sorry you have been waiting so long. I can't give you any advice, as I'm not at the document submission stage yet (almost). But I can commiserate and just tell you that one day in the near future this will all be in the past. Right now this is the most important thing in your lives and you think about it constantly. It WILL get approved. You WILL be with your wife shortly. And in a few months time you'll just be glad it's all over. You won't remember the small details. Good luck! We're all cheering you on!

Currently visiting my husband in the US for two weeks — we’re really hoping to get GOOD NVC news while I’m here (here for another 1.5 weeks, so liking to believe it’s realistic! lol)

Fingers crossed! When did you upload docs? I will be with my hubby around the week 7.5 mark & hoping for a miracle 🥰

I’m a mom who’s petitioning my younger son. I’m married but my husband live aboard. I’m not working and I live with my oldest son his wife and kid. I’m also a dependent on my sons taxes. 
How many household number should I put in I864 

I’m thinking that I should put 4 member witch are the applicant. Myself. My husband. And my son the household member. 
my sons wife and kids live with us but they are not my dependent because I’m not working 

 

so I would like someone opinion how to handle this situation. 
 

confused if household numbers should be 4 or 7 

 

Thanks

Hello Everyone!

Should we be actively filling out the DS-5540 and attaching it to "additional documents" of the DS-20 civil docs list? I see it on the dropdown menu (under additional documents).

Thanks!
