IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNVC Filers - June 2014
A note to all Electronic Processing Canadian filers -

It is better to do a snail mail as you can check the delivery from courier and also find the date NVC scans the file. NVC sent us a checklist on April 30th for the two IR5 cases. We sent the replies same evening. On June 4 - one case got completed and the second was sent another checklist for which we had already sent email. We talked to three supervisors but they could not trace the lost email. We forwarded the April 30th email to supervisor to NVCinquiry and NVCElectronic but they still cannot trace our email of April 30th. So we are asked to resend the checklist reply and wait for 30 business days as the email was not traced. There is no automatic response or confirmation of receipt of the email. We will only find after 30days if NVC received our email. This EP system sucks.

So we talked to Lisa - Supervisor after 63 minutes wait only to find that they did not receive my wife's checklist reply email that she sent on April 30th. She sent it twice that day. Lisa insisted that they completed supervisor review and did not find those emails. How can that be possible? We offered to forward her the April 30th emails as a proof. Her response - "No - you send a new email reply for the checklist". We wonder as to why did we opt for Electronic Filing? One case is complete but the other is not and for the same checklist. My wife sent a new I-864 form dated today duly signed by the petitioner. Hope they get this email. We have no way to find except to wait for 30 business days of guessing if they received the email or not.

Note to Canadian filers - Please don't opt EP . Do it snail mail so that you know if Fedex delivered it.

51 minutes and still waiting for NVC to take our call. One IR5 complete on June 4th and the other is still under review. Same checklist for I -864 for both. Talked to two supervisors since June 4th. Both assured to help. Still no resolution. Why can't someone review the emails that we sent on April 30th. It is frustrating. They complete one case and send a false checklist for the other parent without reviewing the email that was sent for the checklist.

Submitted the AOS documents today! (Which is a nice thing about EP... I can submit when I'm ready) Excited and terrified... I've checked it 100 times and caught a few mistakes (recent posts about getting checklists for I864 page 7, for instance!) but at some point, you have to call it done, stop freaking out and submit!
 
I checked to make sure the pdfs are not protected. The only thing I wonder about that is if those "fillable" pdf forms might respond that way (some of the tax forms, for example, I copied directly from the computer rather than printing them and then scanning them back in, when they didn't need a signature). I guess we'll see if that bites me in the a$$. Hope not!
 
Hope this week brings good things for all of us: Interviews, case completes, IV fee invoices, AOS fee invoices, DS261s, case numbers... Lots of luck and love to everybody.
 
 






Did you check the tax forms for password protection that you downloaded and saved in PDF? Most of the times these are password protected. Lukiduki ( another VJers) got check listed due to the tax transcripts that they had downloaded directly from IRS website for password protection. If I were you, then I'd scan these forms and save in a PDF. Please check these forms again. If need be, then you can email the whole package again without waiting for a checklist as NVC will open all emails in order as they are received.

Well, I have heard something about that... that they don't need to see a scanned copy of the photos in the IV package if we're doing EP. But I'm not incredibly trusting that NVC will follow their own rules (case in point: "leave the space blank if your address is the same as your mailing address") so I think I'll get photos done anyway, and scan them. I mean, I'll need them (hopefully sooner rather than later) for the medical and the interview and whatnot, right?


Yes, we scanned two passport photographs each ( both side). It is a better idea to email as NVC staffers don't follow guidelines and checklist for 'nothing'. Also do not forget to put your case number, name and date of birth.

All the best!

I've read people rushing to mail their AOS and IV packages and forgetting to include important documents or not spotting mistakes in their applications.  We all know what that leads to!  Checklist!   :oops: And we all know what that means!  Delaying the process for 1 month!   :oops:
 
I've decided not to mail my AOS and IV packages ASAP.  I'm giving myself at least a day to double check my packages.  I don't think delaying for a day or two is going to make much difference.   -_-



You are right. If you are doing EP then check every PDF file for password protection. We attached job letter fro petitioner without realizing this. Also, our petitioner filled 'Adjusted Gross Income' in the column 13.a.1 instead of 'total income'. None of us knew of these minor errors. We checked the documents several times but did not find any error. We were checklisted and this delayed the process by almost two months. NVC could have ignored this and ask us to bring a corrected version at interview as these were not big errors but they don't care. They don't think about us as human beings. We are just a case number for them.

3 days after interview and I am just now checking in.

First off, thank you to everyone who has congratulated my husband and me, and second, congratulations to all those case completes and those who have recieved interview dates.

Interview review:
We arrived in Ciudad Juarez on Sunday around 6pm. On Monday my husband left for his medical around 5am. (No appointment, you can just show up.) I waited for him at our hotel because of our 8 month old. He got back around 7:20am.

We went back at 2pm and picked up his results. On Tuesday his ASC appointment was at 7:20am. He left around 6:50 and was back around 7:20, so it was pretty fast.

Wednesday he left for his interview at 8:45. (9:15am interview) We waited for him at a nearby Denny's for breakfast. At 11:30 he got there with an APPROVAL!
Note: I made a folder for him with everything we submitted to NVC and a couple more things, and he was asked for the ONE thing he didn't take: MY BIRTH CERTIFICATE. But the officer told him not to worry about it and told him he was approved.

Next day during lunch around 2pm, his passport was at the DHL ready for pickup. We went to the border for port of entry, crossed over to Texas, and by 5am Friday morning we were in Houston.

Having my husband here feels like a dream. Thank you to everyone who helped along the way even if just to say they understood how I was feeling. Hang in there guys! There is a light at the end of the tunnel. :)














Congratulations !!!!

And thanks for sharing your journey.

We have two IR5 cases and were check listed for I-864 error in one column on April 30th. We sent revised I-864 for the checklist same day. After a long wait NVC completed one case yesterday but one is still pending and they sent another checklist for same item yesterday in Greek. We talked to Supervisor (Lisa) last evening. She was super nice and advised us to wait for a couple of more days.

She also told that July interviews in Montreal are complete as of June 4th. If our both cases get complete then we would be getting only August interviews. This process has been so stressful. We are not in rush to move to US but wish that we did not have to be waiting for so long.

Hey Sukie,

I think your positive waves touched our file. We just now checked and the AOS fee column is N/A and greyed out. Too bad, we can't call NVC right away as we are out for dinner with our daughter and son-in-law visiting us from US.

OK, folks.  It's official!!!
 
CASE COMPLETE AS OF JUNE 4!!!
 
:joy: :joy: :joy:
 
AND, I must have good luck - I never had to speak to either Joy or AH-thur!!!!
 
Jim was the bearer of good news.  He didn't even ask me "What can I help you with this evening?".  He cut right to the chase and told me the case was complete!
 
Then, when I gently pushed, he read me the standard line about interview scheduling and it depended on how busy the consulate was, blah, blah, blah.  But he told me he loved being able to tell people good news!!!!
 
Now....waiting on interview scheduling....
 
For those of you waiting - it does appear that an "N/A" under "Affidavit of Support Fees" is a positive indicator of case complete.  My package explaining that the checklist item they wanted was 1) not required and 2) not available was scanned in on May 9th.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

Hi Jag & Ripu,
 
The "N/A" shows up under the "Affidavit of Support Fee" column.  It is also "greyed out" instead of having a hot-link (in blue).
 
I've been on hold for 30 minutes at this point.  Still hanging in there to find something out!

OK, folks.  It's early morning June 5th here in Australia.  Just for everybody's entertainment, my AOS fees changed to "N/A" last night (Australia time).  So...after I eat breakfast (gotta have some energy to hold on for an hour), I am calling.
 
I am a May 9th checklist response submission - and I'm hoping like H@!! to have "Case Complete".
 
Watch this space.

Hey Sukie,

All the best and hope you get a CC today. BTW - can you please tell us if the N/A appears in the column where it says 'Paid' or in the next column. We see N/A in the last 3rd Column but the middle column still shows 'paid'. We sent checklist reply on April 30th. This morning when we called, our bad luck we got Arthur and he told that our files are under review and our email of April 30 the was uploaded on May 31st.

Does anyone know what date is NVC working on for Electronic Processing cases? We sent a checklist reply on April 30th but still awaiting for a review of the same. NVC seems to be moving fast for paper based filers.

So I think it is safe to say that when AOS changes from PAID to N/A that your case is complete because I just spoke to Ivette and she was like "We have reviewed your documents ma'am and everything is fine. Your case is COMPLETE!!!!!!!!"

And then I yelled, "FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!" ::insert dancing emojis with sunglasses which I have been saving for Case Complete and now can't use them because I am on a mobile device::

Thank you so much to all of you with your patience and well wishes. I will continue checking VJ and commenting to support the ones that have supported me.

Let the PARTY BEGIN!!!!!! Lovemytico.... CALL girlfriend!!!!!






Congratulations!!!!

Sooooooo happy for you!!!!

We see the same screen as yours. Should we call NVC? We sent checklist reply on April 30th.

Hello all!  This is my first NVC thread -- just got my NOA2 today, much sooner than expected.  
 
Good luck to us all for a smooth and speedy journey through!
 
 




Congratulations, this was pretty fast. We are late July filers and got NAO2 on January 29th and now stuck at NVC due to checklist for a very small error. We are using Electronic Processing but some Canadian VJers who used snail mail are ahead of us. You may want to read Saylin's wiki and start getting paperwork ready. It may take a few weeks to get case and IIN number. All the best and hope you get a faster CC at NVC stage.

Arthur is such a gem.... right??     ( super sarcasm) 
sorry you connected with him.   Nothing you say to him makes any difference... He is always nasty.....   Joy too. She is the female Arthur


He is nasty. I told him curtly that he is rude and not listening.

Anyway, we talked to another agent. She gave her name - Reece. She was nice and told that there are two emails of June 10th and two emails of June 11th in their system but none have been reviewed. I told her that it is way over 30 business days. She agreed but told that she can't do anything. She also told that supervisor can't do anything eiether. In the past supervisors were no help as well in resolving the issue of list emails by NVC.

She suggest to call again on Friday and hopefully these files are reviewed by then.

We need some positive vibes and prayers from fellow VJers.

We asked to talk to a supervisor and Arthur's excuse was that as this was shift change time hence he cannot connect us to a supervisor. We were very firm and told him that he was rude and not listening to us.

Well, of course it's getting worse. NVC got slammed with thousands and thousands of cases (more so than usual), so while trying to get through all that, they're still getting sent files from USCIS. It's like a snowball effect. So, unless NVC hires more workers and/or goes into overtime (which is unlikely), then time frames will either stay constant or get worse. Without any implementations, the time frames will only return to "normal" when USCIS stops sending them as many cases (simply due to the normal flow of cases being sent, not because USCIS stops sending them files).


Last week a supervisor (Matty) told Ripu that NVC reviewers are working overtime (till 8PM) and also working on Saturday to deal with the overload. She also told that NVC has hired additional staff but they are getting too many files each day from USCIS and are struggling. In such a situation, why can't they issue CC and ask us to take revised I-864 form with us at interview. My wife and had sent the checklist reply on April 30th. Her email was never found in NVC system.

The checklist is for point 13a.1(Gross total income v/s Adjusted Gross Income).

They need to be smarter in reviewing the documents.

First email AOS 5/20, got checklist 6/25, less than 30 business days... 
DS-261 rec'd 6/2, got IV invoice 6/30, less than 30 business days..
my last email was IV package 6/27, AOS checklist corrected form  - sent 6/25
I called last friday, operator asked me to wait 30 business days from 6/27, 7/1 and 7/2 cause that's the 3 last emails they have in the system. 
she told me there was no scan day for EP, as soon as they open my email, they will review right away. 
 
but today another operator asked me to wait 60 business days from the day they rec'd them.....
*no comments* just wanna shoot myself... 







60 business days??????

I think you should call and talk some other agent later in evening.



Jag & RipuMaleCanada2014-07-25 13:45:00
IR-1 / CR-1 Spouse Visa Case Filing and Progress ReportsNVC Filers - July 2014

I'm doing EP, and I just called NVC. This is the 1st time I've heard about this....
 
The operator said "as I only can see what days we rec'd your documents (6/27, 7/1, 7/2), they are going to review it AFTER 30 days from the dates they received the documents, which means your documents are not under review yet, they should START reviewing them next months, once received and count another 30 business days" 
 
Ummm i thought WITHIN 30 BUSINESS DAYS supposedly? So i guess she means total 60 business days which is nearly 80 calender days.......#######!!  :sleepy:  :sleepy:  :sleepy:  :ranting:  :ranting:  :ranting:  :ranting:  is she insane? 




Yes, I think they are insane.. It is frustrating and they don't know what are the contents. Snail mail seems to a better choice. Some VJers were lucky as their files were reviewed faster than usual 30 business days.

When'd did you email your first and last email?

Yes, my wife called yesterday evening and was told that it is taking more than 30 business days to review. The agent said that June 11th document will be reviewed shortly. We do not want to go for the supervisor review as it did not help earlier and delayed the process as my wife waited for a few days to resend the checklist reply hoping that the supervisor would trace her email of April 30th.

We feel your pain. Our NAO2 is of January 29th. NVC received last checklist reply in their system on June 11th and it is past 30 business days but they have not reviewed it. Stay strong and hang in there.
