Didn't win the powerball... Why does it seem it's always someone from West Virginia that hits?


It always seem to be someone from the South or the Midwest. Seems like the game is rigged....

Just got my NVC Letter. They have forwaded my case to Warsaw biggrin.gif I know have a NVC Case number,however, when I call to the automated messaging system they have no record o case number. Maybe the computer has not been updated yet.

I thought after NOA2, VSC is supposed to mail it to NVC. Is this still correct?

How long should my fiancee wait for her packet 3?

Guess everyone's gone quiet....

Question:

If it was as easy to find work in the non-US country, would you live there?


Yes. I am originally from Poland moved to the USA when I was seven in 1991. A lot seems to have changed there in these 17 years for the better. I am not sure which way the USA is going right now.

Sure we make more here in the USA, but I think it all evens out. For example people my age from the middle class are stuck paying for student loans for a number of years, so basically what your making goes into something else.

Its sad that the USA is the only industrialized country in the world with out a law on vacation days sad.gif

In Europe, after one year of labor you are entitled to twenty vacation days!!!

In my current company it takes 20 years for 20 days and I am also an Engineer.(Hopefully I wont be there that long)

Somebody probably came in and had to make up a day to get Presidents day. I guess they decided to work on your case in the weekend;)

Removing Conditions on Residency General DiscussionI-751 October 2010 Filers
I am preparing my package and realized that I dont really have any solid evidence. This is what I have so far:
Copies of passport and green card (immigrant spouse)
Copy of our childs birth certificate
Two sworn affidavits by USC friends
Random pages from out cell phone bill showing family plan with both users
Front page of our 2008 and 2009 tax returns
Copies of both users on car insurance
Copy of health insurance claims showing he's on my policy
Copies of our airline itineraries from 2009 and 2010 vacations

Im trying to get a copy of something from my 401k showing him as beneficiary, and trying to find something that lists him as an authorized user on a credit card acct.

What else do I need to include? I can have a lease agreement written up if need be.
Is this enough?

IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsI 130 July 2012 Filers

Thank you so much!
One more question:

Those forms include i-846, ds-230 and other civil documents, such as birth certificates, etc?


i864 that pertains to your case(A,EZ,W,or regular) and all supporting documents (taxes,transcripts,paystubs, etc)

ds230 and all supporting civil documents (birth cert, marriage cert, passport, pics, police cert)

read the instructions for both the 864 and 230, and you will see which documents you need to submit with the respective forms.

Can someone help me with my question please:

Will we receive the packages from NVC? or we will donwload from website?

Thanks in advanced!!!


You download the forms and mail them in using the cover sheets. This is unless you are from a country that uses Electronic Processing.

Yes, covered for healthcare in the USA from Jan 1st of this year. You are very right though, having a public healthcare service here does make the case weaker. Thanks so much for your response, I REALLY appreciate :)



I filed in July as well. 7/29 to be exact, at VSC. My case is for a stepchild though, so Ive been in a different thread. I actually just came across this thread with people who can relate to my despair. July 29th, and I still havent heard a peep yet. I had no idea what was going on until I found this. Its really ridiculous.

Quick question. So my AOS was approved yesterday and I am about to send a copy of all the documents I submitted to the NVC & USCIS to my spouse. Anyhow, since the submital of the AOS, I have received an increase in salary. Should I send in a new revised letter from HR (already have) and a new I-864 signed by me to my spouse to take to the interview? As far as paystubs are concerned, should I also send updated pay stubs? Do these have to be current or will the presents one do? For example, if the Interview is in Mid June, do they want June paystubs or will April suffice?


If the stuff you sent in was sufficient, I dont see any reason to update.

I'm not sure. I asked my wife to tell me when the fees have been taken out yesterday and she told me they were both taken out already. I'll have to ask her specifically when the AOS fee was taken out. I'll wait a few more days (Monday next week) and if it still shows IN PROCESS then I'll call NVC about it, too.


The thing is, if the money is still being held, then it isnt exactly paid yet. I noticed the money pending in my bank acct, so I was confident that the payment was ok. However, it wasnt until the transactions were actually posted and the money was actually gone from my acct that the status changed to paid. Im not sure why your iv fee, which you paid after was processed and the aos wouldnt be, were they from the same bank? Sometimes when payments are initiated on a weekend through your bank, they dont start the process til the following business day. I would give it until tomorrow.


Thank you for sharing your details!

Apparently the secretary of immigration lawyer whom i used to verify my AOS form entries, did not know this fact...
As a result, i am loosing some time with this RFE (or checklist) which could be easily prevented :( :bonk:


I tell people all the time that this forum is such a wealth of information that its useless to go to lawyers. They are being paid to do what we can do ourselves so much more efficiently. People offer so much assistance, and share all the knowledge they gain along the way.

Ive done everything from bringing my hubby here on a fiance visa to him becoming a citizen, and now bringing his daughter here with only the help of visajourney. I owe my whole family and happiness to vj.


You should issue an invoice for partial refund of fees, suggest 15 percent of what you've already paid.

Then when the attorney doesn't pay up, take said attorney to small claims court and get a monetary judgement against the lawyer.

If you do this (and others do it) then 'being ignorant' proves costly for these attorneys. I Cry when I read of members bound to Guangzhou, who's attorneys were clueless about EP for Guangzhou and delayed them 4 months and 5 months in being reunited with their families.

Seriously, submit an invoice back to said attorney.


I like this. :thumbs:

Great! Thank you for information.

Just curious: did you had the same situation; meaning at the time when your child born in foreign country, you or your spouse was a LPR?
And then your minor child entered to the US with immigrant visa?


My case is similar but a little different.

My minor stepchild will become a citizen as well, because her father became a citizen last year. I petitioned for her as a stepmom, and therefore since she isn't getting her derivative US citizen status from me, I couldn't file 864W. I petitioned a few months before her father became a citizen. If he had been the petitioner, after he became a citizen, he would have used the I864W form.

So, I paid the AOS bill on Saturday, but it still shows IN PROCESS. I paid the IV bill on Tuesday and today it shows PAID. Does anyone know how long it takes for the AOS to show PAID? I just want to make sure that this isn't an error and that sometimes it takes a while. It hasn't been a week so I'm probably jumping the gun. It's just that most timelines show that their AOS fees showed up PAID within 3 business days or earlier.


I paid mine on Friday, and it showed as paid on monday. Has the money been debited from your bank acct yet? In my experience the money was pending within a day after the payment was made, and then the status changed about 2 or 3 days after.

Dear VJ members,

I have received the following checklist for my two minor kids:



What should i do? Does it mean that my child will automatically become a US citizen once he enters US with immigrant visa ?


ps: my child has born in 2011 when i was a green card holder. Then in 2012, i become a US citizen.
I have sent them a separate i-864 form for my minor child, as well as for spouse.
I just received this checklist for my minor child.
When i called NVC today, i have been told that as a US citizen and parent of child, i should fill and sent i-864W for exception.

Please, help to clarify this issue.


If you are a citizen, your child will become a citizen automatically once s/he arrives with immigrant status. You only needed to file the 864W.

If you gave over both email addresses when the case number was first assigned, then all correspondence is sent by email.

Once you have a case complete, the case is put into queue for an interview date to be assigned. The embassy doesn't schedule it, NVC does. And there's no point in harassing them. You're in a queue and when it comes to your time, they'll issue you a checklist.

Take a deep breath and practice some patience.



Thanks for the response. Thats exactly what I meant though. Im hoping for no checklists, so Im going to try to not call them up. I shouldn't have used the word harassing though, I just meant calling them repetitively. I plan to use the false checklists as signs of acceptance, and just relax until after those. Im going to take this off my mind for a bit, and try to focus on something else. There's nothing I can do but be patient. Ive had no choice but to learn that throughout this process. No one teaches patience like uscis.

How do you get the checklists? Are they typically emailed? I am very impatient, so I want to take my mind off of this a bit, and not go crazy calling NVC. Everything is in their hands at this point, and I want to just relax and wait for an email. Otherwise, I will start harrassing them around next Friday. No way will I wait for snail mail. What happens after the verbal case complete. Can we call up the embassy and harrass them for a speedy interview date?

Yay for progress! Posted Image


Thanks Saylin. I hope to get through this stage really quickly to make up for the horrendous wait at USCIS. I couldn't have made any of the progress Ive made so far had it not been for this thread and all of your tips and shortcuts. Thank you so much for sticking around.

Ok, so my AOS package was delivered yesterday, and I just sent off my IV package for delivery at noon tomorrow. :dance:

What happened to your first payment? Had it not cleared your bank? Mine says PAID, but I know it had already cleared the bank and been posted.


I'm not sure what happened, but it said not paid and when I checked the receipt it said rejected. My best guess is that the hyphen, (or lack of) in my last name caused a problem. I resent it from the same acct using my husbands name, since its a joint acct and he has only one last name. It still says in process, but I know it went through this time because the money is pending in my bank acct.

Hi everyone,

I reread the FAQ section just in case this question was already asked, but it wasn't so I need your help. I received the AOS invoice on April 11. I paid the fee that day via the website. I received a receipt from them about the payment. Today I was checking to make sure the fee now showed as paid as I wanted to send the AOS package off today. When I check the payment receipt now it says Payment Rejected and the AOS bill status says NOT PAID. In the FAQ I know it states to ignore a NOT PAID status but what about a rejected status? Help please!


It should say "In Process" If it says not paid, or rejected, you need to pay it again. The same thing happened to me when I paid the AOS fee on 4/11. I checked the following morning and it said not paid, I immediately paid it again, and it is still in process now.

I don't know, and I don't know if I should send another 864 with the current bank account amount with the statement or what?! Just kicking myself for making extra work.


I mean if you're going to submit another form I would omit the bank acct altogether. Your salary is enough to support, right? Because a checking acct isn't really assets, since the number won't be constant. Even if you Showa current statement, will the same amount or more be there when you interview? Do you have a savings account that you can submit instead?

AND there is not as much as I had listed in there now, that was done 3 weeks ago and bills have been paid since. So now what? Do I just submit the current months statement or just on the online view of my transactions which will be to current date and time? (it wouldn't let me edit my last post to add this to it Posted Image)


Any chance you can resubmit the 864 without the assets listed.?
