in his paper it is said to pay before

They always say that. It's your choice. No one will deny entry cuz you didn't pay. I know people who paid a year after entry. It's your choice.

Got DQ email today from NVC.

 

Submitted AOS/IV/DS260 on August 13, 2020

DQ on September 04, 2020

 

Message on CEAC website only said Documentary Qualified.

 

One of the concerning thing I noticed when I received an email:

They put

 

Fnu, {Hxxxx Kxxxx}

 

Since on my passport surname is blank but givenName has Hxxxx Kxxxx .I decided to put Hxxxx under givenName(ds260) and Kxxxx under surname(ds260). 

Since Hxxxx is my FirstName which I used on I-130 form and Kxxxx is my LastName which I used on I-130 form.

 

Looks like they don't like mismatch between passport and DS260. On my I-130 form, they didn't care. Now, I have to figure out how to remove Fnu completely so it does not interfere with official papers in the future. 

 

Anyone from India can chime in on this if you encountered it before.

 

Congratulations. I added you to the spreadsheet.  Make sure you alert the CO at interview to this FNU. This can truly mess you up in the US.

I am not trying to be stupid, but where do I find DOS case number? it looks like different from NVC case number.

Your DOS # is your case# on the Visa it says IV Case Number.

You can pay the fees on this site: https://ceac.state.gov/IV

Above site is from Department of State (DOS) only. It is advised if you can pay right away.

Since, you have not filled out your timeline. It is really hard to see what kind of visa you are applying or what is happening in your timeline. I am sure lot of other folks can help as well once we know what is your situation based on your timeline. 

 

this is incorrect. We aren't talking about the the AOS or IV fee. This is the Immigration fee to produce the green card and that is through USCIS.

It's paid here https://my.uscis.gov/uscis-immigrant-fee/

Thanks, this is CR1 visa. He got his passport and we need to pay fees. They gave him the link but I am confused if I need to create a new account or use my account. Nobody said anything during the interview.

That was incorrect information given to you to pay for the Immigration fee. Here you go.

Every Transaction has it's own Receipt#. Now add that to your case Status so you can track it.

Thanks for helping so much. My husband flew last night and nobody asked him about this payment.

Hi guys, I have some questions. We received an appointment letter today from NVC. Appointment is on October 28. My questions are:

 

First, does this automatically denied our request for expedite? Because we requested an expedite last August 21 at the NVC. Then after 5 days we received an acknowledgement email. Next email we got is this, and nothing was even mentioned about our expedite request. We were actually hoping to get an email saying that the US embassy approved our request, but we got this instead. Then just minutes ago, I received another acknowledgement email from NVC, saying they received our expedite request. 🤦‍♀

 

Second, should I wait for the status of my case to be "Ready" in CEAC, before I can have my medical?

 

Thank you! 😊
 

You have interview letter so you are free to go to medical. Probably because regular scheduling started and expedite maybe wouldn't have gotten you an earlier date. They just went with NVC scheduling/ Congratulations.
I have added you to the spreadsheet. I would get the medical and then contact embassy and ask for an earlier date. They might do it.

Thank you sir! Will definitely try to request an earlier date. 😊

i am not sure about the first question because i didnt expedite my case. but for the second question, in my case the status on CEAC changed to "ready" on the next day after i got email from the NVC, so hopefully yours work that way too. you can try to book an appointment from medical check up which you can get like couple or few days before your interview. i booked mine for fri next week because my interview will be at the beginning of oct.

Thank you for the response 😊 And good luck with your interview! ☺

Expedite sent. Wife has actually just started seeing a therapist of her own for this too so we used that. Damn email was more like an essay and we sent like 5 supporting documents, including her proof of accessing mental health services, a statement from the witness about me being attacked, screenshots of conversations between us about it, statements from people close to her about worrying about her mental state. Fingers crossed! 

Excellent. Very Thorough. Praying for a approval fast.
