DS-230 Packet - Coversheet Date?

[trekkin2k7 0]

When preparing the DS-230 coversheet using shortcut method, how much difference does it really make if you put a date on there that may be off by a day or two from the date of the coversheet NVC sends out to you?? Does anybody here have experience with this, if you put an inaccurate date on there, does NVC really care about that, and if they notice it is different, what do they actually do about it? I am trying to figure this out, as I believe they have generated it yesterday, but since automated system does not say, I am not absolutely sure....

Please advise.

Thanks!

Am not really sure if it will do much hard but from experience I would say "No" since I maded that mistack when I sent my AOS Fee Bill using the (JSC 2.0) and they still accept it into their system..

thx diturbo,

Off-topic, it is very intersting how your case is almost identical to mine, I was reading your timeline, and it is very close to mine - I mailed out my I-130 on first week of May '07, and the NOA1 Receipt date was 5-11-07. And up-to-date, I mailed out my IV Fee Bill on 11-08-07 (received by NVC on 11-10-08 in mail)....just thought I'd mention how close our cases are, within 1 week of each other, and almost paralled in terms of all of the other steps in the process, since we mailed in our I-130 less than a week apart...quite interesting...

My estimate is we get our spouse/partners here in the US in early February..

On my case thinking I get my DS230 packet early december, and submitting it the 2nd week, probably will get a response of completion by the end of December.. (I hope for NO RFE!! Thanks RINA) Then probably get an interview packet on 2nd week of January with an Interview date of 2nd week of February.

How is that guys?

So based on your estimates, u think your interview will take place 2nd week of Feb.....so how does that work, do they schedule interviews one month after NVC sends the case out to the Embassy?? I read somewhere that they set interviews every middle of every month, for the following month...is this accurate?? Is that a known process that you guys are sure about??

Thanks again.

The DS230 as per JSC always get generated on a Monday. As for me, the dates does not really matter, however it is important that you find out first when its generated before sending yours in.
