Is this the norm......?

When we received our case number it said on the recording to wait 6-8weeks for the next thing to be generated does that sound right..??? I thought it was 2-3weeks....????

When is thing gonna take off like everybody says it will now that it's with NVC..???

They always say 6 to 8 weeks, just to cover their ... uhm ... behinds. In reality it can be 2 weeks but also close to 4. If it wasn't generated last monday, chances are good for next monday

But, things do speed up after that. In my experience anyway

Usually it takes 2-3 weeks for NVC to generate DS 3032 and AOS Fee Bill after the case number. Please check today, maybe your DS 3032 and AOS Fee Bill are already generated today! Good Luck.

Hang in there! I think you might get that awaited update this coming Tuesday too!

I just received my case number today...yay! I'm right on your heels hehe. Are you going to do Jame's Shortcuts (barcode)? At first I wasn't but now I think I am going to go for it. I want to cut down the mail time as much as possible.

James's short cuts are a bit fiddly - but use his latest version and use the'paint' program (part of standard xp) to do your bar codes.. I tried using adobe photoshop which is a pro program but doesnt work as well as the simple 'paint' program in xp

they are fiddly but try a few things - like stretching them to fit the box on the form - and it can be done with a bit of patience- and then check em to death to make sure you havent left the embassy as bogota and you have changed the name and date (to the generation date)- yes i am still checking mine - has to be perfect.....

Thanks for the link! I am comfortable using different graphics editing programs but I agree that paint will be more than adequate for this purpose.

I am also quadruple checking. I'll probably dig up a barcode scanner to verify it reads it ok too.

I don't want any unnecessary delays due to preparation error.

oh yes and James made an important post as one of the forms needs updating from his original post

and there is still a little doubt about whether the tax authorisation form needs sending - most people are saying 'no' but I can't see any harm in sending it - they can just bin it...there are so many permutations to people's circumstances that sod's law says 99% of people don't need one but we do !

Just when I found royal mail 'airsure' to get my fees to a US po box number, the royal mail are threatening to strike ! It just shows that until you actually get the stamp at the POE, we can't relax... If they do strike i will courier the stuff to Carolyn's mom in Milwaukee and ask her to mail it from there.

Actually I am getting pig sick with the whole thing now but we are well on the way so just need to grit our teeth for another 4 months..

I sent out my I-864 by using James's shortcuts without the tax authorization form, so we'll see what happens.

P.S. I hope your mail issues get resolved.

I think I will also send it without the tax auth form. Since I'll have the I-864 ready and sent well before I ever get the DS230 package then I figure any RFE for that will be resolved quickly enough.

...and yes Good Luck saywhat on your mail worries. I hope everything gets resolved!

We send the I-864 without the tax auth form also and they are done reviewing it and twas all okay

I just wish they'd hurry with the DS-230 review
