CONGRATS!!!! I haven't received an SIF yet, though :( I don't know what's taking so long...I'm on the same timetable as all of you! I have to call the NVC now and bug them. I am VERY happy for you though! :dance::dance:

Congrats! to all that received SIF this week.:)

@Debby we r on same boat. I wonder wht's taking them this long. Is it bc I sent both AOS n IV on Oct 29th?

I don't think that's the problem...I sent the AOS and IV packages a week apart.

When I logged in VJ this morning I was expecting that "Oyez ! Oyez" :)

Time to party !

Hey Indigo, questions for you

1. I think you got that SIF last night, right?

2. When you get SIF does it literally mean that your IV and AOS all were fine and you don't have any RFE?

3. What does your AVR say now?

:D

I bet it's just their standard message...you are almost done hang in there.

Citizenship next step!

I just got off the phone with the NVC and they said I have an RFE. They told me I was missing the co-sponsors proof of citizenship. I have contacted my lawyer, and I am trying to figure out what happened with that, because I remember providing him with that information. But I am waiting for him to get back to me.

They said I can not send anything in until I receive the e-mail with the cover letter? Is that correct? Does anyone know how long it takes for that e-mail to be generated? Also, once they receive that information, how long does it usually take for them to apply it to the case and finish it?

What a horrible way to start the holiday week.

Hey Indigo, questions for you

1. I think you got that SIF last night, right?

2. When you get SIF does it literally mean that your IV and AOS all were fine and you don't have any RFE?

3. What does your AVR say now?

:D

Thank you.

1. I checked the invoice page at 5:08PM once and then on 12:24AM. The SIF happened sometimes between that.

2. SIF is a strong indication that everything is good. But since it's not CC. So it might still be possible to get RFE. But highly unlikely.

2. I'm still getting the NVC has received checklist response message on AVRS as of last night. I haven't called NVC yet today and talked to a live person. I'm going to do that around noon. It'd be wonderful if I get a CC today. I hope. I hope. Oh I hope.

What a horrible way to start the holiday week.

Everyone keeps saying sending in a copy of biographic page of the passport is optional. This is exactly why Loto and I chose to send copies or our passport with the AOS package. Here's what you need to do, Asad. First call NVC and ask them if this is the only RFE. Once you are absolutely sure of this, then print a copy of your AOS bar-coded cover letter. Then mail this in along with proof of citizenship. Do include a cover letter with your case numbers, names, ssn, date of birth of you and beneficiary, co-sponsor, etc. You don't have to wait for the email. Once you send the package, it takes about 12 days for it to be scanned into the system. Then another week to review it. Since your app is partially reviewed (hence the RFE) it might take less time to process it.

I'm sorry to hear about your RFE. Immigration lawyers are friggin' dolts. Storm over to his office and demand a refund for the RFE.

Thanks IS, I am about to go to FedEX now and send all of that. I have not yet heard back from my lawyer, he is in court now apparently. I will give him the benefit of the doubt and say it might be an NVC fault (because I am sure I have provided him with that info), but if it is not their fault, I will surely be demanding a reimbursement of of my overnight fees and a chunk from my case.
