do you need to send passport photos?

Not needed , they don't ask at NVC , but I sent anyways , 

I front loaded lot of extra things ,. Safer to send more then miss something  and might help out my wife on interview with less Questions

Please let me know how it goes with the rest. Did you send 2 different packages or all in one? AOS and IV with each cover letter?

You send 2 envelopes , AOS and IV , but in 1 package   you don't need cover letter inside each envelopes , but can be nice to put to list ehsyd inside and in what order , 

You do need the documents checklist you get from welcome package , and documents cover sheet from ceac website , on top of the envelopes outside 

i typed a cover letter like this , which is not needed and put this after the cover letter

Thank you! I will wait until next week. I can see they charged yesterday the payment. So they sent the invoice for the second time before it was debit from the account.

 

😊 Yeah when I called them about that , they said not to worry ss long as it shows on your bank account as charged and it's just system glitch to re send invoice , 

By Monday or Tuesday it should change to paid

My checklist came and, amazingly, had nothing to do with the AOS but with the IV. Wasn't expecting that! 

 

But I need some advice: the checklist says they need me to send a police certificate from the Netherlands (where I currently live). But I *did* send that in the package. So does that mean they lost it? Should I call? 

Yeah if they asking for it , 

Means they lost it or they didn't accept your PCC , 

Call them , but most likely you'll have to send the copy of original PCC again

How does that page change? My SD is March 2nd but status page is still saying action required, submit outstanding documents etc.

thank you

When. They take action on your case you'll see that status changed to "AT NVC"  that means they took some action on your case   and you can call when you see that to confirm what action they took

hi guys ,

i paid my AOS fees 2 days ago , to day it chned from in process to paid . how much time i still wait so i can paay the IV fee aand complete ds260  ?

IV fee Unlocks after they review the DS-261 form ,    Call NVC tomorrow and ask them to review the DS-261 over the phone for you , once they reviewed it, it'll take 1-2 days for fee to open

How long is the usual time from sending the IV package and the interview time?

Hard to tell what is your scan date ?

..please I need to know if that a good idea ?thanks to any advise 

Hey, don't send documents without that , 

You can use her 2016 tax return as most recent if that still has enough income to qualify for sponsor , and send most recent W-2 with it , 

You can take 2017 return to interview with you , 

They don't really start asking for 2017 until after mid April I think

I called nvc just now and asked the lady if she can send my case to a supervisor. She said it will set back my case by 6 weeks if she sent it to a supervisor. Don't know if that's true.  She told me to call back next week and check if a case number is issued.  She said they have been thrown a lot of cases and they were working last Saturday and will work again this Saturday. 

Sorta true and false 

Their supervisor review time is up to 6 weeks ,. But in the meantime you still can get your case # assigned as normal 

I called them at 2 weeks mark from when they received my case. , Didn't have case # so the rep on phone sent my case to supervisor review , 

I called back in 2 days and they had my case # ready and gave me over the phone  ( this was in Early February )

How do you find out when it has been scanned? You call or they email?

You can call then ask if they received your documents and if it has been scanned in or not 

Usually it takes then 2-4 business days from them receiving your documents to scan it in
