My husband and I finally received email from nvc. We have been trying to make two payments for a week but every time we click “pay now” part on their website, it leads to the error page (the pics attached). It’s happening for a week. I tried on my laptop and phone and also my husband who lives in the us, tried the same thing but the result is the same. I also submitted inquiry on nvc website and all they said was “Thank you for contacting us regarding your difficulties logging into the Consular Electronic Application Center (CEAC). The Department of State is aware of the problem and we are working quickly on a solution. There is nothing you need to do about this issue. We encourage you to continue attempting to access CEAC at a later time as this often appears to resolve the issue. Thank you for your patience while we work to resolve these difficulties.” Anyone else is having the same issues? What to do if this keeps happening? Is there a phone number or anything for nvc? Please advise, thank you!!

so I checked I-130 my husband filed and applied, and that was on our mistake that we fill out both question 61 & 62. Knowing that, do you still think it’s worth trying to contact USCIS and senator? Or do you think if it’s us who filled out application wrong, then it doesn’t matter?

Should we mail a letter to the congressman’s office? What would you say if it was your case?

Do you guys think submitting this https://egov.uscis.gov/e-request/displayTypoForm.do?entryPoint=init&sroPageType=typoError would help my situation?

well I’m the beneficiary and I’m currently in japan. I haven’t been to the states since 2022. for I-824, that’s for me (beneficiary) to apply, correct? Because for I-130, that was petitioner’s job to file and apply?

Hi there, My husband and I received notice of action 2 a week ago. However, it looks pretty different from what the people usually get. From my understanding, I thought after receiving NOA2, NVC will be mailing you or emailing you about next step. Our application stated that I (beneficiary) need to submit either I-485 or I-824. I have attached our notice we received. Can someone please help me what I should do next? Thank you in advance!

On actual mail that came from USCIS it says it’s from Potomac Service Center. So I assume that’s the service center that’s processing our application?

Hi! Thank you for your reply. My husband applied online and when we received NOA1 letter, it doesn’t say which service center it came from. How would we see which visa center our application went to? I’m in Japan but last year when I saw someone’s time line on blog, she got NOA 2 within like 6months so I didn’t think time period between NOA1 & NOA2 be so long. Do you think it changes recently that takes longer than before?

My husband and I applied CR1 in May 2023, we received NOA 1 on the same month but 148 days later, there’s no other updates from USCIS. How long does it usually take to receive NOA2? And anyone applied the same visa on the same month as us?

Thank you for the reply! I have additional questions for the people who already been to the interview at embassy. when you upload the passport style picture online, do you need to bring the same picture to the interview? Or are you able to take a new photo?

Can someone please answer my question? when uploading the 2 x 2 photos of you and your spouse, the requirement says to write your name and A-number. But if y’all both don’t have A-number just writing your name is ok?
