National Visa Center (Dept of State)Acceptance of DS3032
I was getting worried. But now I see that many of us are wondering about the acceptance of the DS-3032 :crying: I thought that it would have taken about 3 days once you have emailed it. Well what can we do but wait although it is not easy on us. We want to get moving!! :unsure:

The only way you will hear anything from them after they have reviewed it is if they dont receive you DS-230. They will send a checklist.

I saw a post a few days ago by Saylin making a suggestion to someone how to deal with it. Maybe you should send her a personal message.

Check second box:

My interpretation is that - submitting the most recent year is a must. Therefore, checking the second box means that 'I have attached returns for the most recent year and is also attaching years 2 and 3.

Anyone agree?

National Visa Center (Dept of State)confused

Olomi, is right..when looking up information for ur case make sure that u are looking at IR1/CR1. I have notice that K1 people post information on the forums regarding IR1/CR1 visas which are really for K1 VISAS that getting people mixed up. It happened to me as well. The best way to make sure its accurate is to go to immigrantvisas.state.gov that will tell what to send for ur visa type. I would recommend that copies are also carried to the interview as well.


True. It almost tripped me up too.

No, they do not send forms to beneficiary after the case is completed. Everything up to that point is sent via email if you provided them with one.

You will get information regarding any RFE through the mail.

Yeah when I called the guy said they start 12/10 -- he's the same guy I spoke to in October about when Nov. started and he was spot on with that date. Maybe the two people who have been scheduled just have really slow embassies?

Looks like November is a special month because I am absolutely dumbfounded that the January dates are out already.

Hi guys

Quick question: Im filling out DS230 for my K1. From question 14, where it says "Spouse name", I put N/A since it is a Fiance visa, right?

Thanks


That's correct cause he/she is not your spouse as yet.

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionPacket 3

My fiance is in Jamaica and has been waiting 2 1/2 weeks to receive the packet 3 in the mail. It has been sent from Kingston but he has not recieved it yet. Does anybody know what is in this packet and how or when do we go about getting the appointment for the interview? I have been on the edge of my seat for 2 weeks and I need to make arrangements at work to get time off etc. Thanks to anyone who has info!

I have been on the edge of my seat for 2 weeks and I need to make arrangements at work to get time off etc. Thanks to anyone who has info!


Hi Sarah & David,

Packet 3 consist of the following:

1. DS230 Part 1- Non immigrant Biographical Data Sheet
2. DS-156k - Non-immigrant Fiance(e) visa application
3. DS-156 Non -immigrant visa application( to be completed and submitted online)
4. Ds-157 Non immigrant supplementary
5. I-134- Affidavit of support form
6. Medical history form

For your appointment to be scheduled your Fiance(e) need to complete DS230 part 1 ASAP and send to the embassy via courier service. When the form is received and processed and an appointment date has been set, the embassy will notify you by mail. However, you should also email the embassy informing them that you have not received packet 3, and request that they e-mail or set an appointment for you to collect it.

Based on my experience and that of other yardie VJers, you will never receive that packet in the mail so you have to be very assertive and stay after them. The forms above can be downloaded from the USCIS website EXCEPT the medical history form.

The sooner you get the DS230 PT 1 to them the better. In the mean time your fiance(e) should start applying for The certificate of no- impediment@ the RGD, police record and the new birth certificate on Govt paper.
All the best and I hope everything works out ok and you'll get that interview date soon.

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionBlue Slip

So today i went for my interview,at my interview i got a blue slip for a new police record again, this will be my 3rd Police record to those people, also they need me to do a DNA to prove that my father is really my dad, i feel so bad, am 27yrs old, and my dad or any one in my family have ever doubt me and these people doubt my relationship with my dad,i don't have a problem with my dad wanting a DNA, but its not my dad who needed it, its a stranger all because off wanting to to live as a family with my dad and sisters, i don't see whats wrong with someone having a child when they were 16yrs it happens all the time, my mom laugh so hard about it... but i don't see the joke in it... i told my daddy they i will do the DNA but i dont feel like leaving my country again i rather stay here with my people.... he said i break his heart to say that.. but honestly that's how i feel... anyways does anyone know how to get the DNA test done.. i didn't ask the white man who interview me nothing i just walk out when he said they not sure he is really my dad. and today atleast while i was there only one was granted all get blue slips but only me for DNA...


U shouldn't have just walked out. They are requesting the DNA for a reason, the most common in Jamaica is because the father's name was not added to the child's birth certificate at birth, but was added sometime later. They also take into consideration how many years after you were born before the ur father's name was added.

If for example,U say you are 27 but your father's name was added to your B/C at age 2, or even say 5, then it's a possibility that they would not have required a DNA test, but if your father's name was added when you were probably about 15-20(just an example) Then a DNA is a definite cause one would assume that there was an issue of paternity why your dad's name was not added at birth.

In other words you need to take a closer look at your B/C to see if there was any amendment after birth and if so at what age, then maybe you would be able to determine if the DNA was justified or not.

Just follow whatever instructions are given and as long as he's your dad you have nothing to worry about. You are coming to live in a very tough and fierce America and in order to survive and succeed that attitude has got to go. It's not about how you fall down, it's about how you pick yourself up. Good luck.

National Visa Center (Dept of State)Case Complete
QUOTE (scorpio68 @ Apr 30 2008, 09:12 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>
Hi VJ's

Today the automated system as well as the operator confirmed that our case was COMPLETE as of April 28.

I can hardly contain myself.

I would like to thank all of you for the extremely hard but wonderful work you all do on this forum. It was and is certainly a source of comfort as well as guidance.

I am paranoid, so the only short cuts i used were the Emailing of the DS - 3032 and i used the the DS -230 cover letter ( but only when the letter from the NVC looked like it was lost)

Is there a way to check to see when the embassy time frame is. I guess they will try to schedule within the next two weeks.

Well thanks again to all

Regards

I am so frustrated right now...Congratulations to everyone who has received a case complete but I am so upset that my DS230 has been entered in NVC system since May 12 and my I-864 has been entered since May 2 and my case is still not complete....everyone else whose docs were entered after mine are getting a case complete...what is up with that...i called like almost everyday now asking for a status and its the same thing...my docs are still under review...i have no idea why though...this is really bothering me now...I want this to be over already.... crying.gif crying.gif



Its tough to tell you not to worry and to relax....but try your very best to do so. This process has given me sleepless nights but as the Jamaican saying goes "every dog has his day" Im convince. Hang in there and dont loose hope. And just so you would know not one appointment from what i can see here has been scheduled for Kingston in the last month. My case was completed on April 25th and each time you call the NVC they tell you some ####### about dates been scheduled the 2nd week of each month. I try not to call them every day to drive myself crazy so maybe you should try that approach.

Much love,
Kishmar
