NVC Kingston Jamaica embassy processing

[milan 0]

I am trying to find anyone who can shed some light on the process with the NVC from the time that I get the 864 AFFIDAVIT OF SUPPORT UNTIL THE ACTUAL SCHEDULING FOR THE VISA INTERVIEW?. I am trying to make an estimate on how long it will take for my husband to be here.

4 to 6 months seems about normal

4 TO 6 months after I send back the affidavit?

I just sent the fee Bill last week and they received at...I just need to know after I get the affidavit of support and send that back in how long after will they send the visa application and normally how long do they take to schedule Medical and Interview? Also, would my husband get the visa the same day in his hand or will he have to wait yet again...Any help is appreciated...I am trying to get the best estimation possible.

Visas are delivered via delivery service in about 4-6 business days.

I do not know about the rest.

The NVC will prolly finish procesing the info in a month or less. They've been finished processing my info from January and the embassy still hasn't set a date for my husbands interview. But others whose info was completed by NVC after mine have already had their interview and gotten their visa. I think I'm the odd ball most people seem to get their interviews 2 - 3 months or less from the date NVC finish the paperwork.

The NVC process should only take 2-3 months (and shorter) if you use the James Shortcuts. Also they are scheduling interviews about 4-6 wks after the case completion. I recommend you go to the following website and read up on the procedures. Try to have your husband send the DS-230 part I (signed) and part II (unsigned) along w/all the add'l documents (police cert, birth cert, etc). This way once the DS-230 packet has been generated you can go ahead and submit everything w/o waiting in the mail.

If you want your husband to arrive as soon as possible I strongly suggest using the shortcuts, it's a HUGE timesaver.

Once they generate the AOS packet it will still take a few days to actual leave the bldg, again suggest the shortcuts to cut that time as well. The forms are already online just need to create a few bar codes. Once NVC recv the IV Fee Bill of $380 they will send the IV packet.

Good question. I have no idea what the "James short cuts are".

We applied for our K-1 in late January...the 18th, I think, and he got approved on June 6th. That was last year.

Thanks for the James short cuts info....

Now I have a new issue . My husband sent his DS3032 email last week monday to choose me as his agent and address. However, so far even though we got the auto response saying that they received the email, NVC is saying they have nothing on their system showing that they received a DS3032. Each time I call they are saying it takes 5-10 business days. ...Is there anyone on VJ who is having a similar issue as I am? If so, how long did it take for them to update your DS3032 on the system? Also, how long did it take for them to update that they received your $70 fee and mail you the actual affidavit of support packet?

The NVC works on a 30 day or less system. If you send them something it will be processed within the month and the next item will be sent out. They will tell you 6-8 weeks for processing but all my docs were completed in a month or less. Hope that helps

We filed a K-1. The NVC took 19 days for us. Our whole process was just 134 days from filing to visa interview and approval. It would appear we went through extremely fast.

Yah, we were approved and had a letter in the mail, the entire time they were telling me they had nothing in their system.
