Thank you, I was wondering because it changed to issue right after my wife interview. Not even 30 minutes later and it said issued. Is the visa center a local center or is it sent to the US?

Oh no it's wherever they print Visas for your embassy. Nothing comes to US. US has no printing of Visas. That's a Department of State duty.
Should be ready for pickup by now.

Hello, I have sent an expedite request today for the same reason as well. Can you please tell me how long does it take for the NVC to response? 

It's not NVC you will be waiting for it's your embassy some are faster at responding then others. I would think a week or so.

Thank you for your reply. My wife went to the center were she was told to go but the embassy has not sent it yet. They did tell her to wait a week and tomorrow is exactly a week since gotten approved. Guess my wife got a little anxious and went before being ready for pick up.

Could someone pin this on the homepage possibly? If you don't know what your looking for this thread is kinda hard to find and I think its a great source of information for people and would be great to have others join in the discussion that might be getting interviews soon. 

Sorry? Pin what to homepage? Trying to catch up and read all the post I must have missed something.

Hi Biola, 

I just requested to expedite my case which is currently at NVC DQed. 
 

Subject Line: Expedite Request /Case # 
First paragraph: 

I introduced my self, name, date of birth, and where I reside. Same thing for the beneficiary (my husband). 

Second Paragraph: Reason/s for this request...

I also included attachments (Proof) 

 

At the end I made a pleading if you will. 
Asking for their approval for my request. 
 

Email: nvcexpedite@state.gov

 

Hope this helps. 
 

 

Do you mind if I use this on first Post for example how to write an expedite please?

Not at all, feel free to use it. I’m glad I could help.

Okay everybody with NinPran's permission I have revised abit the expedite request but she did all the work. Is this okay. I will add to 1st post.

 

 

How to start a expedite: Send your NVC expedite request in the form of an email to nvcexpedite@state.gov. An email request is specifically the only way to submit the NVC expedite request.

Subject Line: Expedite Request /Case # 

First paragraph:  Tell them who the Petitioner is and the Beneficiary

Introduce yourself, name, date of birth, and where you reside. Same thing for the beneficiary.  

Second Paragraph: Reason/s for the expedite

State the reason why your case needs to be expedited. Be specific. The more you can demonstrate the hardship (mental, financial, health wise) on the petitioner the better.

Also include attachments of Proof   

Now plead your case. Asking for their approval for your request. Now is time to really use this COVID to your advantage.

You might be supporting two households that’s financial hardship. You may be depressed now seeing doctor or therapist get a letter stating that.

Hi NellyIsaac! I noticed you guys haven't set up your timeline yet. When you say SA, do you mean the consulate in Johannesburg?

We had our interview. The CEMAR (certificate of marriage...different from marriage certificate somehow) we submitted was from 2018. Now our case is refused until we send a new CEMAR. They didnt even keep the passports. It's a real bummer. 

 

If you have a spousal interview in Manila make sure to have a recent CEMAR even though the website gives no timeframe on when its valid.

 

The online site says it will take 3 weeks due to covid to issue the CEMAR. Then time to send it to the embassy and time for processing. This probably set us back at least 6 weeks. 

 

However, best I can tell we are approved once we provide the document. I'm disappointed because I thought my family could come in 2 weeks but by mid September we should be good to go.
