After nearly two weeks of waiting to hear back from NVC just to say they got our expedite request, they emailed us on Friday asking for us to send a copy of the I-797.

I'd never heard of that being a requirement when requesting an expedite,  especially since we provided the case number etc and they've received the case.

 

So we sent them it on Saturday and now are back to waiting again, yay! 🙄

  • January 24 2020: I-824 NOA2 (273 days)
  • Feb 5 2020: Approved I-130 Sent to NVC (12 days after I-824 NOA2)

Financial reason: My job contract ends on March 31st so my husband would be paying rent, gas, electric etc for two places. He also goes away for Ranger School soon with no phone allowed so if any financial emergencies arise he won’t be able to help me.

It’s a long shot but after seeing that someone got an approved expedite in London because they wanted their husband to be there for their child’s 1st birthday I felt it was worth trying.

Hello everyone! While uploading supporting AOS documents to NVC, should I submit two 1099s as a single pdf file or should I upload them separately?
Thanks in advance.!

I uploaded all my files separately, put a comment on each file regarding which year it belongs to and more info if needed.

Some people do it separately, but I did it all together. I scanned all my tax papers into one PDF, wrote with black pen the year they were on the front of every page and when I saved the file I changed to file name to [casenumber_Beneficiary name_Document name] Example: RDJ1223455667789_JaneDoe_TaxTranscript. I had no issues, just keep each file under 2MB and you'll be fine.
