NVC Electronic Processing - October 2010

[ravis 0]

Hello,

Beneficiary ID is a 8 digit number. That is what I see on my IV invoice. The 10 digit number you are referring to with the MTL is the NVC case number.

Hope that helps.

Well this morning when I woke up I checked my email on my phone and I got this as part of the message:

Dear Sir/Madam:

All documentation necessary to complete the National Visa Center's processing of your case has been received. As soon as an interview date has been scheduled, the applicant, petitioner and attorney (if applicable) will be notified.

The applicant should NOT make any travel arrangements, sell property, or give up employment until the US Embassy or Consulate General has issued a visa.

The US Embassy or Consulate General may require additional documentation at the time of the interview.

I also went to the portal to check and I received a SIF. I am very very happy everything is moving forward in the right direction!

Hi, Eric:

Congradulations! I am very happy for you! Never know may be you will have interview in January!!!!

Quick question, Did you file your tax return with single/household status or you filed joint return for 2009?

I did it with single/household status because I didn't know we can file joint return despite my wife does not have social security number. They say it is a red flag not to file joint return. I can file an addendum for 2009 tax return

,however my wife has to obtain a TIN number first, This process takes longer than two weeks. I don't know what to do.

I just hope red flag is not equal to automatically white slip. I hope they can pay more attention to what I have not wI don't have. Again, Congrat! ZWUU

Hi zwuu,

Thank your for the Congrat! I to hope that my wife and I can squeak into the January Interview time period.

Regarding the taxes. I personally think you will be ok. I looked at your profile and you mentioned Dec 7th of 2009. Taking that into consideration I can see having your filling still be single being a few months from the time of the marriage.

Have you changed your witholding now on the W4 to married? I did this in Sept and then made an adjustment of the number of allowances this week.

I'm betting if you sift though all the posting on VJ you will most likely not find this one year of filing right after your marriage to be an issue.

Thank you zwuu!

I saw that there were four of us on the China's Portal section here at VJ for January.

Take good care with the preparation in having everything in order for a much successful PINK! so the two of you can be together in the U.S.

I saw your postings (I think they were in the CFV web site also) regarding the tax return. Do what's best that you feel is required.

Hello Darnell,

Well things seem to be moving a bit TOO fast!!! That's a good thing but, in our case, we'd actually like a little more time to collect some documents to front load our DS-230 package. Don't get me wrong, I'm loving this speed with which my case is currently going. Here's where I stand right now and remember, this is for an IR2 (step-daughter) visa:

Received the GZO case number on 1/7/2010 via email. This is interesting as I reviewed this whole thread and, in my case, I picked up some early indicators that my case was being converted to EP. The first indicators were from the operators starting last Monday when I called to see if the new case number had been assigned. They started the conversation off by stating "You are going through EP..." Prior calls never indicated that at all. Then the next indicator was on the day before I actually got the email and that was when I tried to access my Invoice Payment and got a database error message. Called the operator and was told my case had been approved for EP and to wait for the new case number. The operator stated he didn't have it at the time.

Submitted my AOS package via EP last night....13mb!!! That was the lowest dpi my printer could do. I'll need to check some other posts to see how to get it down as my DS-230 w/front loading will go off the scale. Regardless, must now wait for some Affirmation of Relationship letters from friends and my step daughter. Hopefully, we'll be sending by week's end or the first of the following week.

Thanks for watching over us rookies! Will stop in again later with any significant developments.

Best to all,

Sailorboy

SailorBoy - cool beans !!! (or cool Char Sieu Bao)

Here's a verra longish discussion between myself and DJWalker - always worth a review when yer sitting there in yer shorts -

http://www.visajourney.com/forums/topic/251451-uscis-nvc/

The cool thing on docs for the DS-230 - all can be scanned in and emailed - and copy shops in China are CHEAP for doing the scan work (and are very pervasive around the high schools)

Happy Monday !
