National Visa Center (Dept of State)so I called NVC
QUOTE (b4byd09 @ Jan 15 2009, 09:18 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
I called NVC today to see if they have yet received my case that was approved on January 9th and the lady responded allow us 4 to 6 weeks? Does it really take this long or she was just Bsing?

It means that, yes, they probably have your case, but have not yet forwarded it to the Embassy. Four to six weeks, right now, seems to be the average timeline for AP, also known as Administrative Processing. Which you do not want to be in and hopefully are not.

Give them a couple more days and ask again. In the meanwhile, you might get an email saying that they have received your case, as well as one saying that they've forwarded it to the USEM. Both can be - misinformation.

Unfortunately, this NVC part seems to be the most unreliable and unknown part of the whole procedure.

No, it has not, necessarily, been moved.

The moment your file reaches NVC, a new number is issued and it's the one that starts with whatever the abbreviation for your embassy is. MNL is Manila, ZGB is Zagreb, etc.

So, unfortunately, the fact that you have the new number does not mean a thing.

K1 would only stay there short time, email your embassy and ask if they have received and your interview date


Incorrect. Our K1 was there well over seven weeks.

Ours as well.

In most cases, if the case really is there (undergoing AP), they won't tell you it's been forwarded to the embassy. They might try to avoid explanations, or even mentioning the words 'Administrative Processing' or 'Additional Processing', but eventually, you'll get them to say it.

National Visa Center (Dept of State)a question about the NVC
QUOTE (khalid @ Feb 25 2009, 04:10 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
hi everyone
can i get the nvc to let me know if my case got there thru email ? if yes , what information should i send ?

K-1 visas are not part of the automated system, so you will have to call them and talk to an operator. That's by far the fastest way of finding out where your case is and when it will be sent to the embassy.

You will need the petitioner and beneficiary's name and date of birth, as well as your USCIS number, since you do not have your new one yet. Have those ready, because it's the first thing they will ask you. You might be asked some other question(s), but I assume you shouldn't have any problems answering them without any preparations.

National Visa Center (Dept of State)Administrative Processing at the NVC
All the waiting is not nice at all, but it does eventually end. It probably won't take longer than 45-50 days, so I don't think you really need to start planning your move to Ukraine. It'll be done and over with and, so far, we've not noticed that AP has any impact to the outcome of the interview.

I strongly advise you start spamming the thread cdneh linked you to. It helps, at least a tiny bit. wink.gif

National Visa Center (Dept of State)help pls stuck on nvc for two months...
Step #1: find time to call NVC and ask about your case status. It's something you or your fiance should do.

Step #2: take a look at this thread.

I must admit I had some trouble understanding your post, so the thread itself might not be that helpful. If your case is stuck at NVC for AP, then that is the right place for you. If not, calling NVC and finding the correct information is the way to go. Then you wills ee whether or not a lawyer is required.

Considering the length of an average NVC wait, as well as the information provided in this thread, I honestly see no reason why a new one should be started. A lot of work has been put into providing information as accurate as possible in this old thread.

However, it's up to the readers to decide.

...and you should check (Embassy website, regional forum around here, etc.) whether you should contact the Embassy at some point (usually about two weeks from the NVC release), or wait until they contact you.
BadgerellaFemaleCroatia2009-05-02 09:11:00
National Visa Center (Dept of State)NVC and k1
There is a case number, assigned to to your case when it was received by USCIS. Once it reaches NVC, another number gets assigned, by which the respective embassy recognizes your case.

If you are unsure about the whereabouts of your case, you should call NVC and ask about it. They say email is their preferred method of communication (NVCINQUIRY@state.gov), but you can use this number: 603 334-0700, and ask to speak to an operator (just follow the instructions). Their working hours are Monday through Friday, from 7:30am to 12am (EST). They'll tell you if they have received your case, forwarded it to the embassy or.. if this is what is going on.

Good luck!

Question to everyone on this thread: When you found out you're in AP@NVC, what exact words did they use - "Administrative Processing" or "Additional Processing"? The reason I'm asking is that there seems to be a difference between the two confirmed by both NVC reps and attorney I spoke with.


It's definitely the same thing.



As for the letters, as much as I remember, we also never received any letter/email/anything saying a word about AP being completed. Even though they, of course, promised to do so. We did, however, get a letter saying nice things about the case being forwarded to the Embassy before we even knew about AP.


As for the news - I'll be flying next Saturday. Still haven't packed and don't know where to start. whistling.gif

Hi, everyone!

I should have more time now to start paying attention to things that are not work or school related - as of July 1st, I'm oficially unemployed and on July 3rd I finally graduated from college and, as far as those things are concerned, am ready to leave for the US.

We finally booked some tickets, for August 8th - my mother got a 10 year visa, so she'll be traveling with me. The rest of the family, for now, doesn't know anything. It's a lot of money, of course, so I'm trying not to insist that anyone else comes, or that they should feel guilty if they don't. We'll see what happens.

Now that we have a set date and everything.. I'm slowly starting to freak out. Packing, gathering more documents, making some doctor's appointments (to take advantage of good and free health system, while I can), etc.

I hope everyone's been well and, as far as I can see, people who get stuck these days, seem to be getting out faster, too, which, of course, is some great news. smile.gif

Yeah, I've mostly been really busy studying and just preparing for the big move. Getting ready for four exams at once is pretty complicated and I'm pretty sure I don't even have to mention what it can look like when you're, on top of that, trying to help organize a wedding (and sort papers, and think of what all you may, or may not forget... and, also, trying to spend time with family and friends you're, eventually, leaving behind).

So that's what it's mostly been. We finally have a wedding date, too, and we plan to have me travel at the beginning of August.

That sounds awesome, the Buddhist ceremony! We're not sure about our Catholic one because neither is, actually, a religious person. We don't practice anything and I am the one who is, in fact, eligible for a church wedding (been through all the religious things that are required). The main reason we'd have it is that, with a church ceremony, the whole Croatian 'wedding', or, well, the wedding re-run, would make more sense. Otherwise, we'd just be inviting some people to a restaurant, pretty much.

We'll see what happens!

Church (Catholic at least) weddings in Croatia can, and usually are registered, which is why we chose not to go through it before I come to the US. Of course you can just simply not sign any papers and say that you're doing it only religiously, but I didn't want anyone, at any point, to either get confused by it, or to run into any and all proof that we've been through a wedding-like anything.

We plan to have a civil wedding (at least that's what a wedding that does not include a religious ceremony is...), with a reception, for my fiance's family and friends and whoever who can come from Croatia, that being my family and friends. Considering the distance and expenses, . We'll do our best to organize it (my fiance and his family will do pretty much all the work) while I am still in Croatia - according to our current plans, I'll be arriving 10-ish days prior to the wedding (or more, if other circumstances allow it). Later, when I can travel, we'll be back to Croatia and we'll have a reception for everyone from here. There might be a catholic church ceremony, but we're not yet sure about that.

I disagree. This is not uncommon at all if the interview doubts the validity of a relationship. They can and will ask all kinds of intimate details to assure you are telling the truth. Typically the husband and wife are put in separate rooms and asked the same questions. Then the answers are compared. This was in the movie 'Green Card' and is a real phenomenon.

However if your relationship is legit no matter how personal the questions may be you should be able to answer them.

** found this http://***removed***/greencard/***removed***/marriage-based-greencard-fraud-interview.html


Yes my sister's petition spent 50 days stuck on AP at NVC. ( my petition was stuck for 35 days, and 30 the first time I filed in2007)

As you well know there are two types odf set questions for visas K-1 , and K-3 or marriage visa, my sister and her fiance were asked the second one,eventhough they are not married, the reason to this I assume is to what you say about relatives knowing other thru family references, and my sister going out with my brother in is one reason, second reason is age difference. Now a little info about my sister, she was married twice before, but was divorced a long time ago, and of course it would raise a red flag the fact that they met last yr, fell in love and then filled the petitions, my sister's last divorce was around 1990, and since them she is been involved in other relationships, but nothing that ended upin a marriage, the fact that there is distance between them, is the reason to had filled the petition.

Now about the questioning, yes they were asked questions about initmacy, when they had thier first encounter, when theyhad their last, what kind of underwear they both use, if there is any scars, or beauty marks intheir bodies, and if there is any partuclar one in a private area. About jail, too, if she had been in jailed before, this question was asked becuase of the existence of another woman name the same as her, (that woman was my first wife),also she was asked questions about both of her ex husbands, their criminal history, at the same time her boyfriend was asked about this and he knew about it. Al of this had to come out of the AP at NVC, since my sister did not about her ex husbands problems with the law, but had no idea about my first esx wife, (even me had noidea about this). Also her financial status was questioned, you all know that you don't say anything about your financial situation on any of the documents that are needed for the petition, and at the interview they knew about this, mysister and her fiance were prepared to answer all the questions since their relationship is a real one, this couple is one that tell each other verything about thier lives, hide nothing , they really know each other a lot, but me personally never expected the visa to be denied.

Hopefully this can help clarify certains things, but again my purpose of telling all of this is not to scare anyone stuck at AP / NVC, but prepared for questioning in case they feel is necessary.

This is for future refrence in case someone goes thru something similar.

Blessings


LUISH

I didn't know there were two sets of questions, since a CO can, technically, ask whatever they want and many times they ask pretty much nothing, or something pretty random.

Just to clear up the financial part, or at least to apply what I learned during our Embassy visit - when you come in, you give them the required documents. During your wait, the assigned CO goes through any and all submitted papers and prepares, amongst other things, on what is presented. Therefore, it is a pretty common question that they ask about financial situation - at the Embassy level, an Affidavit, is submitted and they can, also, ask for more income proof. My fiance was, during my interview, asked about the company he works for. It was a very short question and the answer consisted of just one single line, but the CO really did 'pull it' from the information we submitted right there.

As it was earlier suggested, your sister should try to contact the Embassy ASAP and make sure her case doesn't get returned to the USCIS.

There are still countless questions they could ask in order to compare the answers and evaluate a relationship, that would contain no explicit details as a couple's sex life. AOS interview usually differs from any K visas, too. At most Embassies, the petitioners don't attend the interview and aren't questioned at all, even if they're 'around'.

LUISH

I'm sorry to hear about your sister and I wish you luck with your interview.

However, as someone has already said, I am not too surprised that your sister's interview lasted considerably longer than many, if not most that I have read or heard about. It's been mentioned here more than once that couples who meet through relatives get (a lot) to deal with a lot more scrutiny. Add the fact that you and your sister had your petitions filed around the same time.... At the same time, while it doesn't become the official reason a visa is denied, a big(ger) age difference often raises a red flag, or, in other words, makes the interview longer, or the couple/applicant face a series of not-so-common questions.

From your original post, I failed to gather or recognize any connection between NVC/AP and the longer interview you talk about. Was your sister's petition in AP as well? Did they even mention it during the interview? Where do all these things about jail and previous marriages, etc, come from? I've heard others report questions that had to do with their previous spouses, but that makes sense, doesn't it? They, the COs, are allowed to ask anything, after all. If either side has ever been in jail, it will be recorded somewhere and therefore presented on the documents one submits along with the petition and/or the Embassy (I forget, I apologize, since these stages of the process are now behind us). People who have had these things happen to them are likely to be aware of their existence and would, or at least should be prepared to hear about it at the interview, as well.

I'll once more mention my 'experience' with NVC/AP (I say 'experience' because, considering the circumstances and how little we know about it, I haven't really experienced much, other than knowing the fact that our file was, for 50-ish days, stuck there, undergoing who-knows-what) - having had no problems at all with the wait, or the reasons we were 'stuck', during our interview, I'll once more say that many cases get stuck in AP at random. Any and all processes have some sort of a control process, too, and NVC/AP, in this case, would be one of them. I assume so, of course. At the same time, people with very common names, numerous previous marriages, immigration attempts (failed or successful), previous petitions, criminal records... they might end up there for a reason other than, say, my fiance and I did.

The two of us are only 5 years apart (I am, however, the older one), have not had any previous marriages, children, criminal records, our names are not so common at all, we have been living in the same cities since birth, etc. We're, pretty much, a random couple from, say, next door. Not miles and continents apart. Yet, they wanted to double and triple check us (or, which is also a possibility) our files just sat there at someone's desk for two months. We'll never know, and, more than likely, you won't either.

If you have time and are willing to do so, it'd be helpful and appreciated if you could explain your sister's sitatuon a bit better - just so any and all new and worried people wouldn't think that AP, in and of itself, means a visa denial, or an interview that's 'out of the ordinary'. What did they ask your sister and/or her fiance? Was AP mentioned? Etc.

Thank you in advance and, once more, good luck.

We had new statements of intents to marry that we brought to the interview. First ones were sent with our petition and then we read somewhere around here that brand new ones should be brought to the embassy. Even one of the forms (forgot which one, though) asks for proof of engagement, which, we learned around here, again, is that particular letter.
