Congratulations! Hopefully the embassies will be able to reopen soon and the travel ban can soon be rescinded as well.

 

(We submitted on 2/18, so I hope tomorrow or early next week we'll hear good news, too.)

I have a question about the signatures...I may have messed up.
 

The instructions said that you can’t have a TYPEWRITTEN signature. We signed electronically (a digital signature of our ink signatures stored on Adobe). You can’t even tell if it’s in pen or not. It’s identical to a pen signature. 

 

Is this going to be an issue? Should I re upload the forms as “Additional Docs” with a scanned ink signature? And make it look more...rugged?

 

Thank you.

Thank you. 

I think it's hard for any of us to say if it will be an issue, but I think a lot of us have seen that it has proven to be an issue for some people. That's why people here strongly encourage fellow applicants to use a real signature, scan it, and only then upload the document.

 

As for uploading it as an additional doc, I've seen people do that before, too, and it's been fine for them in the end.

 

I hope other people will comment if they feel differently! But my feeling is, better safe than sorry.

Thank you. 

I did exactly this and submitted. Then someone here told me it could be a problem, i then later tried to upload the scan version of the ink signed copy but the website didnt let me upload despite several trials. so i gave up and hope they dont hold it against us.

Thank you very much. We'll resend it with a scanned wet signature- better now than wait a few months to hear exactly what you're conveying. 

 

You've been incredibly helpful and we really appreciate your input.

23 April  --> ANOTHER RFE

 

Doc re-submitted 10 Feb

Household member added 24 Feb 

 

Silver lining, they reviewed from when first re-submission date not last uploaded doc.

 

Reason for RFE: I used the wrong form, I-864a not an additional I-864 for joint sponsor.

You have no idea how much I am beating myself up about this silly mistake. The word household threw me off since I was using my dad. 

I want to cry.

[JAC&MEH 34]

Just received 2 emails from NVC.  We are DQ!!!

I'm really sorry  😔 At least this will hopefully be the last checklist. 

 

Would you mind if I asked what the first RFE/checklist was for?

 

Hang in there.

Really sorry to hear about this. But you'll get through it! Remember, with all the embassies closed and air travel impossible or next to impossible, these RFE delays maybe won't set you back like they normally would. The important thing is to carefully correct what you can and resubmit it. You'll get where you want and need to be soon.
