OK here we are so no one can complain about our complaints and I for one know they all will miss us. But hey that's what they wanted. Here we can be sad, angry and complain about waiting time's and NVC etc. Your welcome to whine, cry and just let us know how your feeling in general.

Any NVC questions will please be posted at our Saylin's AKA 129fs238648.gifSeptember filiers.

So who's first? Come on you know you want to. :D

Usually there's a fair amount o ranting going on, joint commiseration and what nots. perhaps this is something new, or they not like your font choice ?

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !

I hated NVC when we went through there. Hate, loathing and almost desperation.

I might have shaved 3 or 4 weeks if'n I had paid attention, but that's on me.

These days, there's a 60 hole on each queue, and that sucks - smacks of really bad IT system there [and I hate bad IT systems]

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !

You probably need to drink more wine (or shoot an angry email to your lier lawyer) since most people wait for 60 calender days for their checklist documents to be reviewed... :bonk:

Plus it takes about 30-60 days from CC to an interview date! :dead:

Hopefully one day NVC will go back to being a quick process and there can be one NVC thread like the good old days.

ROC from CR-1 visa (Green Card expiration date was Nov 24th 2016)

 

Link to the evidence I submitted. Be sure to send evidence spanning your entire marriage (especially for K-1) or as far back as you can. Just one or two bank statements will not cut it. I primarily focused on the two years of living here since I came in on a CR-1. If you don't have the fundamentals (i.e. joint accounts/policies), you can explain why in the covering letter. E.g. "While we do not have joint utilities, we both contribute to them from our joint bank account".

 

September 26th 2016: I-751 package sent to CSC

September 28th 2016: Package delivered
September 30th 2016: Check cashed
October 3rd 2016: NOA1 received with receipt date of 09/28/16
November 3rd 2016: Biometrics received with appointment date of 11/14/16.
November 14th 2016: Attended biometrics appointment
October 30th 2017: Infopass appointment to get I-551 stamp
February 26th 2018: I-751 case number (aka the NOA1 receipt number) becomes trackable
March 14th 2018: Submitted service request due to being outside of processing time.

March 15th 2018: ROC approved. 535 days (1 year, 5 months and 17 days)

March 29th 2018: Card being produced

April 4th 2018: Card mailed out

April 6th 2018: Card in hand. Has incorrect "resident since" date. Submitted service request on I-751 case (typographical error on permanent resident card) and an I-90 online.

April 2018 - August 7th 2018: Tons of service requests, emails and now senator involvement to get my corrected green card back because what the heck, USCIS. Also some time in May I sent a letter to Potomac telling them I want to withdraw my I-90 since CSC were handling it.

August 8th 2018: Card in production thanks to the direct involvement of Senator Sherrod Brown's team

August 13th 2018: Card mailed

August 15th 2018: Card in hand with correct date. :joy:

October 31st 2018: Potomac sends out a notice stating they have closed out my I-90 per my request. Yay for no duplicate card drama.
