congratulations... did you call them today

yes I did this morning. scan date october 6th.

CASE COMPLET as of November 28th. :) so relieved ..no lawyers ,.no checklists..all thanks to saylin GOD IS GOOD

Same situation here. Was told last friday that 60days script. AOS still remains paid.

I check at the sumarry page using either the first or the third link of the ceac page.

What's weird now is that i can no longer access the payment link which previously i can.

I really hope for a cc. Scan date october 6 for both packages that we sent together..

Call them back again on Monday. I hope we all hear good news on monday.

don't pay any mind to the reps, either they are told to stick to the 60 days scripts all the time or they don't see the info until certain time of the process.

the same thing happened to me. i called in the am was told that my docs have not been reviewed yet at around noon the AOS fee changed to NA.

so yes it's case complete. Congrats.

Really..omg..thank you soo much.u just made my day. Hearing from you who had similar experience making me believe its a cc.. did ur iv changed NA aswell. Mine still showing paid. Just aos changed NA.

Think positive.. Thats a cc.. IV normally remains the same.. Only the AOS change to n/a..

You sent both packages together?

I did sent both packages together . They told me last night they havent opened my mail and look what happend today. I am sure u will get yours today as well. Keep checking your form portal not fee portal.

I think thats a cc.. Congrats. When did your aos change to

After 5 o'clock this morning. Keep checking yours. I have a feeling that I got check listed for iv

Congrats!! That's CC! Call Monday to confirm.

I hope so..but I am really nervous about Iv now. I will def call Monday and let u guys know. Please pray for me.

October 6 th. I called nvc last night around 9.30 and hey gave me 60 day script. My aos changed NA n the form portal not tge payment portal. Also iv still showing as paid

Hey guys plz help me.. I called nvc last night and they told me they havent reviewed my case yet and gave me 60days message. I just checked the ceac form portal and I see my aos changed to NA not iv . Iv still showing as paid . Does that mean I got a checklist for iv ?!!

I am confused about my scan date now..2 nvc rep told me its october 8th and the emails I recieved says 6th. Any similar experience guys ?

AOS Sep 22

IV Sep 25

What's an average wait time for checklists these days?

Thank you Saylin.

what is your scan date ?

Any cc today ??Any body know what scan date nvc is on now ?

Thank you.

Used "snail mail". No EP or expedite.

Maybe the NVC is gradually starting to process Sept dates alongside late Aug dates? Who knows.

wow..I hope so. Anyways I am so happy for u. Good luck with your interview and everything

Hello all!

First off, I have to say I have followed this forum since my case got to the NVC in June and have gotten lots of useful tips, learned the lingos etc etc.

Great to finally write a post and especially with good news.

So my AOS fee changed from paid to N/A today and thank the Lord, I have a case complete!. Phoned the NVC and after being on hold for 55mins I spoke to one of the reps (Ariel) who confirmed it.

I got back from work at 11pm and it was a great way to end the evening.

Last scan date September 3rd! A miracle, I know.

No checklists. Praise the Lord.

congratulations. you are so lucky to get the cc soo soon. Did u do ep or snail mail?

My case got to the NVC in June, but as an F2A. Took almost 2months to get it upgraded to IR1 after my husband became a citizen!

Then came the 30day wait to 30business days and now 60days.

If I have learned nothing else in this whole ordeal, it is that patience is a garment that must worn all day everyday.

I can identify with people who check every email waiting for that one email from the NVC.

My husband did most of the paper work but we were SUPER organized, i.e OCD type. Made sure we had everything and more before sending off docs. Attached cover letters to everything.

Saylin's guide is gold I must say (Thank you).

I read the travel.state.gov website line by line and can pretty much recite all the requirements by heart.

Knowing what originals you need plus copies is vital.

I know the feeling of seeing others whose cases have been completed and wishing the rest of us goodluck but still feeling left out.

This post is to say, it will happen to you too! That paid fee will change to N/A when you least expect it.

Feel free to ask me any questions.

Sorry for the long post!

omg sorry abt the previous post.. congratulations. I am so happy for u. Did u do the snail mail or EP? Did u expedite your case ?

Alright - got the e-mail for the IV processing fee (YAY!) but aside from that I'm just wondering with all of the AOS checklists going around - am I assuming right that perhaps ours will be easier since we are not going through all of the taxes/W2's or the such? I am the USC and a SAHM living outside of the US for over 9 years. We are only providing assets and a job offer contract to sustain us.

Has anyone just put assets acrossed and how does it affect your processing? Is it easier because I will literally be putting 0 on incomes and tax information? I will of course put acrossed a cover sheet stating the reason why I did not file taxes but our assets are well over the poverty line for our household.

Hi..I am using just my employment letter and 6 moths of paystub. Hopefully that will do the magic. My income this year is above the proverty line eventhough 2013,12, and 11 is 0, so I called nvc 4 times to ask about the joint sponsor 2 representative said this should be ok and ofcourse one said include the sponsor. Anyways I am sending all my paperwork s without joint sponsors.

Received my iv bill today...Thank God. Exactly 13 days after aos/ ds261. Looks like new process is pretty much on time

15 days he said ? wow , I hope so! that is much better than the 60 days I heard when I asked about it.

sooo If I don't get invoice till the end of next week I am going to make my husband to call them and see if they can unlock it.

it works just fine for me.

hey nana.. call them today.according to the new process u should be getting your iv today(15 day).

Thanks guys! We just found out that we were approved, and the husband is scheduled for his interview on June 16th! I didn't end up co-sponsor in the end. For those of you curious how I was approved considering the situation I described above, here is what I submitted in addition to my tax transcripts:

- 6 months paystubs (though they seemed redundant given the employment letter)

- documentation from my employer: one letter from payroll indicated my annual salary ($20,159) and another letter saying how long my position (funding as a graduate assistant) would last for (i.e. 3-5 years contingent on degree progress)

- additional financial assets

- copies of my monthly bank account statements going back 6 months and demonstrating steady savings (~$1,500)

- notarized copies of savings bonds and they're estimated value from the treasury.gov website (~$1,100)

- the annual statement for my roth IRA (~$3,000)

I don't know what if any of this was superfluous, but I went out all out and it worked!

I am in similar situation now. I dont have tax info for last 3 years because I was full time student with no income. This year I started working and my estimated income is 37 k. Do I need a co sponsor. ? Plz help. All I have is paystubs and employment letter

Hey guys... I just paid my aos fee today. I am planing to sent my package some time next week. I have a quick question. I didn't work last three years so that I dont have any tax forms to submit however I started working this year and I make 30+ k . So do I need a sponsor? Plz help

Aos invoiced!!! Yayy

Nvc case# & iin recieved 9/18

Hi

My case was completed by NVC (april 2 2014 ) ( done with i864 and iv package n everything) .was waiting for interview to be scheduled at consulate but NVC Did not schedule it coz my PD was't current yet as i was in F2a category.

But recently my spouse has become US ( may 28 ,2014) we have sent certificate of citizenship to NVC on same day. But from that day (15 bussiness days) our case has not been updated.we only recevied an email stating its being recieved and "under review"

(what a pain) . i didnt file tax last 3 three years(i live with my parents and i was a dependent under thr tax return) but this year i started my new job and make 40 k/ year. so do i still need a sponsor because i didnt file tax for last three? i have pay stubs from march to this date and employment letter.what i am planning to include in my AOS package is

SIGNED I864
