Delaying / Postponing Your Case At NVC
M+L replied to seekingthetruth's topic in National Visa Center (Dept of State)
Just want to relay NVC's reply here in case others are curious in the future: (I did an online enquiry asking for more time) "To Whom it Concerns: Thank you for contacting the National Visa Center (NVC). To keep your case active, do not let more than one year go by without contacting the NVC. The easiest way to keep your case active is to access the Consular Electronic Center (CEAC) at https://ceac.state.gov/iv. Every time you go into your CEAC account, it will update the last contact date." -
Thanks all. I was trying to find a definitive answer. Since there seems to be conflicting information between the NVC welcome letter and the NVC website, I did an enquiry as suggested.

Keeping case open at NVC (split)

EDITED TO ADD: I should add that the NVC welcome letter included the sentence: "IMPORTANT: If you do not log into CEAC or communicate with NVC regarding this immigrant visa case for a period of one year, by law the Department of State must terminate your visa application."

I read through this whole thread and I'm not clear on the exact details. I had an I-130 for a parent approved almost a year ago (February 2023) but we have not started the NVC process. I logged into the CEAC with the credentials given in the welcome letter. Is logging in sufficient to keep the case open? In the pinned post it seems like more is needed, including submitting DS-260, but this is Step 6 in the NVC process, so I am confused. Any advice appreciated!
