Congratulation!

Ở VN thì sau khi có case number từ NVC xong sẽ làm 6 bước. Làm 6 bước được chấp thuận hết sẽ đợi 2-3 tháng sẽ có ngày pvan.

After you got case number from NVC. You need to do CEAC (6 steps) . When your documents are qualified by NVC. You will have an interview date after that 2-3 months. Good luck

I have new updates for those still following in this forum. 

 

Previous steps:

26 Dec 2021: I-130 filed for mom living in Colombia

26 Dec 2021: I-130 Receipt - Texas Service Center

14 June 2022: Active Review

07 Feb 2023: Request for evidence for I-130. 

Apparently my birth certificate was filed too late after I was born, so they didn't accept it as proof that my mom is in fact my mom... We had to send my catholic baptism and confirmation records as secondary evidence.

12 Feb 2023: Secondary evidence receipt notice

15 Feb 2023: I-130 APPROVAL NOTICE!!! - Potomac Service Center

 

Updates:

19 Feb 2023: NVC Received Case

19 Feb 2023: DS-261/AOS Fees Paid

04 Mar 2023: Submitted Affidavit of Support documents (We waited for 2022 tax transcripts before submitting)

10 Mar 2023: Submitted Form DS-261 (We waited for my mom to renew her passport. It was going to expire soon.)

11 Mar 2023: Submitted Immigrant Visa (IV) Application

27 Mar 2023: Received notice that some documents were rejected because there were no English translations.

---This suprised us since the travel.stage.gov website specifically says: "Please note that a translation is not required for documents in the language of the country where your visa interview will take place." And: "Please note that all documents not written in English, or in the official language of the country from which you are applying, must be accompanied by certified translations." So apparently the NVC doesn't know their own policies... Doesn't suprise me. So for those who are doing this step, I would recommend that you submit English translations of your documents to avoid delays in the processing of your case.

31 Mar 2023: Resubmitted documents with English translations

14 Apr 2023: Documentarily Qualified!!!

 

So now we're waiting for the appointment letter. Does anyone know about how long before the letter is generated?

More updates to come.

Sending positive energy to you all!

Hi everyone.

I applied for my mom back in Dec 2021. The application has been completed about a couple of weeks ago and now waiting for the interview date.

Do you know how long it may take to have the interview date in Ankara-Turkey?

Thank you

Has anyone gotten the email that you are DQ? I got one around June 2022 but still have not gotten an interview date yet.

Time from DQ to IL varies hugely by consulate, most people on here will have had theirs by now but if yours is Islamabad then unfortunately it's one of the worst - 18-24 months wait or even longer. When was your parent DQ'ed?

OK so hopefully at some point late this year or early next year then. If it's your father, be prepared for him to be put in to AP as well, Pakistani males often are. 

 

Good luck.
