I got the 3 N/A today and called NVC they confirmed case was completed yesterday Sunday 9/27/2015. Thank you God for making this process easy so far.

Thanks lonelaC
Ive been reading alot and i can see post saying send Packages now. or ASAP. so i really dont know which one i would do. but anyways thanks for your honest and on safe side opinion
I sent the documents before Iv fee was available and before Ds 260 was filled, but i called nvc and asked them if it was ok to do so and if it would delay my process, they said no it should be fine. So I hope they didn't review my case before I sent in the Ds 260. I think if the difference is less than two weeks it should be fine, but I think it is safer to pay the fee and fill Ds 260 first. That is just my opinion .I took the risk and I m hoping it is worthed it.

I did it in the same order, and called nvc tonight and asked them if that was ok and if it would cause any errors or delays, she said she never heard of that before and that it should be fine,I just need to wait 30 days after sending in my Ds 260.AOS paid August 31st and shows PAID
DS-261 still not reviewed from August 31st.
Was advised by NVC rep to send in the I-864 along with the supporting docs for AOS & DS-260. E-mailed September 15th.
I will be calling in the morning to get the DS-261 reviewed so I can pay the IV fees and submit the DS-261 before they send me a checklist because the documents were submitted before the fees & forms.
Has anyone else did it in this order and not had a problem?

It's completely ridiculous. You would think that if your case is moved to supervisor review that it would get priority, not another loooooong deadline longer than what it normally would take. 42 days is ridiculous to take 15 minutes to sit down and make sure papers are correct. I am considering getting my senator involved. If you're past the 30-day GIVEN deadline, you should receive priority. Complete BS. I'm so over this process and I cannot wait until I never have to deal with them again.[/quot
I was told by nvc representative that it is ok to mail the aos and iv documents before submitting the Ds 260, so I think that should not be a problem, if they review the case before seeing a Ds 260 in file it may just trigger a false error. I hope they give your case priority since their supervisor knows where the issue is. I also hope they don't review my docs until after they get my Ds 260. Good luck.

Just my routine nightly ceac check, then saw the AOS fee is N/A. Immediately I dialed NVC and waited for 30 minutes and it was confirmed after I asked them for any update. Oh yea, thank you!!
Congratulation ! That was fast, makes us all optimistic.

I just submitted my Ds 260 online, I have had sent all aos and iv back in 9/4, now it is wait time. May God speed up this process and make it all smooth. Ameen.

I mailed my documents on September 1, got an email on 9/9 that they got it on 9/4.Hello all,
We submitted our documents for AOS/IV on September 7th via EP. I have not heard anything since. Does anyone know how long it takes to get notice they received it via EP? I am thinking of calling on Monday if we hear nothing since it will have been a week.
Thanks

You are right, I called this evening and they did review it over the phone and told me to wait 7 days and iv fee will be available. Thank you for your response and good luck to you too.No, i did not wait more than a few hours before calling, i had it reviewed in a few days. Check out my timeline. After they turn you down, call again later that day or next day. It's your case. They don't care about your case more than you do. Good luck
So much lol.

I agree with you 100%. This is a forum for community support and I have experienced this process twice, my first time ended in divorce right before case complete. Thanks god she didn't make it here, and I never gave up and I'm back going through the whole process all over again. I only call nvc like once a week. I just called them and they were able to review my Ds 261 over the phone today, and told me to wait 7 days to pay the iv fee. So I think they are trying to do their work and we are here to support each other and not criticize each other.It's our fault some people are waiting years? No. It's not annoying the NVC when they give specific deadlines and don't meet them. If they're not going to meet deadlines, they shouldn't give out bogus times. Your comment is not only irrelevant, but it's unnecessary.
It does get a bit extreme calling multiple times a day for updates, yes, but calling every couple of days to get updates is not. So, please go kick rocks.
Thank you.

How did you get them to review your 261 over the phone? Every time I call they tell me I have to wait 30 days before anyone review it..... It has been about 21 days now. Did you wait 30 days before you asked them to review the 261 over the phone?I have a feeling we are supposed to call everyday and convince them to review the 260 the same way we did for the 261... would make sense that they would delay doing it unless we really insist on it
Thank you.

I filled my Ds 261 back in 8/19 and it is not reviewed yet. I already sent in both the aos and iv documents and I m still waiting for the Ds 261 to be reviewed. Every time I call they tell me to wait.It took us 4 days from DS-261 to receive IV bill. We also called to review DS-261 over the phone. I thought 4-days was very fast for the fee to open up! I don't remember reading about a 24-hour window at NVC for practically anything...
Of course, if you're worried I recommend calling again! The hold time is worth it for peace of mind!

I think you need to select option 7 to speak to a rep.

I had Ds-260 completed back in 8/19 and I m still waiting on the IV fee to be available. I clicked on the ds260 today and it looks like I resubmitted by mistake and the date now is 9/5 , will that delay my iv fee ?
-
I called them twice and they said they are still reviewing the choice of agent forms. And that it takes time. I try to call them twice a week now.

I paid the Aos in 8/19 and I am still waiting on the IV fee and 260 form to be available. So I just went ahead and mailed both aos and iv documents in one package. I called nvc and they said it was ok.

I've been having some issues with calling NVC and getting in touch with the right department - this has happened 3 times now. I am at the stage where I have filled out the DS 261, paid the AOS fee, and am waiting for the DS 260 to be available to me along with the IV invoice.
- I call 603-334-0700
- I press 1 for English (the only other option is 2 for Spanish, if I don't press anything, I get disconnected)
- I press 1 to speak to customer rep (no other option, if I don't press anything, I get disconnected)
- When I get connected to a rep after ~25-30 minutes, they take my NVC case number, check on their side, and say that I've pressed a wrong button, because they are only handling cases where the interview has already been scheduled/taken place, and that they will connect me to the right department. When they do that, I either get disconnected, or I come back to the same department again.
Anyone else facing this? Any pointers on what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks

I guess I was just lucky then, good luck to everyone.

Thank you and good luck to you all in this journey.Congratulations!! Awesome news

Yes indeed it was a very nice surprise, I think what helped speed my process is maybe the fact that I had a i130 petition back in 2013 that was approved then i cancelled it in the end of 2014 due to a divorce. So uscis may have considered that .
-
That's right, question..... I saw you filed a i130 and also an i129, will that help speed the process?Gives us all hope.
Thank you . I was expecting to wait 5 months, but it was only 3 months.
-
Thank you . I was expecting to wait 5 months, but it was only 3 months.Congratulations!!! That's awesome! ??

I got an email today for the i130 approval.
-
I know it is frustrating , patience is the key in the next 12 months.
-
I think you should expect something after the 5 months waiting period.
