DS-260 Complete, Asking For Docs Again

[Kassie.Alva 0]

Hi! I married a Costa Rican and we started our visa journey in August 2020. We had finally gotten all the docs sent and accepted in CEAC for the DS260 and I864,  but as of today, March 18, 2022 it changed to incomplete for the civil documents. It says the passport, police report and photographs are missing, yet I submitted them in September 2021. They requested an additional document in December, which I submitted immediately. 
 

Any idea why they’re asking to send these documents again? 
 

Also, does this mean we are closer to the interview? A new section on CEAC popped up in the corner saying our interview location and priority date, but from my understanding, spousal visas aren’t limited, so we shouldn’t have to wait long for an interview. It’s been a long 19 months!

It depends.  Once your case is document qualified, the case will enter the queue for your consulate at NVC.  Once your case reaches the front of the queue for your consulate, NVC will schedule the interview, notify you, and send the case to the consulate.  Good luck. 

 

Maybe those documents didn't transfer clearly.  Hopefully, another upload will be successful.

Well, after an hour and a half of waiting to talk to someone at NVC she said that it's a glitch in the system, and I shouldn't need to upload those docs again.  But, they wanted a different document too, so back in the line of waiting we go...

I feel your pain.  After being at NVC for 12 weeks, we received a "checklist" in early 2017.  12 weeks later (after sending the requested document our attorney failed to send earlier), we finally got the notification that we were "case complete" at NVC.  Total time at NVC: 24 weeks.
